In Korea Samsung has launched two new plasma television models which have 3-D capabilities. These televisions, the PAVV Cannes 450 and the full HD PAVV Cannes 550, can be used to display 3-D images with the aid of special pc software and 3-D glasses. The software developer Electronic Arts is developing 3-D content for these televisions.
Another notable feature of these televisions are their 1,000,000:1 contrast ratios. Samsung stated that these displays are able to achieve their contrast ratios through the use of Cell Light Control technology.
They also stated that the DNIe+ (Digital Natural Image engine+) chipset and the 2008 Ultra Daylight technology used in these sets allow for a high quality picture.
The PAVV Cannes 450 will come in 42-inch and 50 inch sizes and be priced at 1,750,000 KRW ($1860.07 US) and 2,500,000 KRW ($2657.24 US) respectively. The PAVV Cannes 550 is priced at 3,900,000 KRW ($4145.30 US).
