At a press conference yesterday, TV Logic announced 2D and 3D versions of a 15” OLED monitor. The new monitors, the 2D LEM-150 and 3D TDM-150W, have all the benefits of organic light-emitting diode technology, such as an extremely wide field of view and high contrast ratios.

Wes Donahue, regional sales manager for PRECO, TV Logic’s U.S. distributor, said that OLED is superior to standard LCD monitors because the display surface is actually emitting the light being viewed. “This makes OLED much faster, and the contrast ratio is 100,000:1,” said Donahue. “As you move off-axis, there’s no drop-off of screen brightness.”

For 3D use, the TDM-150W requires active-shutter glasses. The unit features 1366×768 resolution — Donahue said that a larger OLED monitor with higher resolution is in the pipeline.

There were several other new products from TV Logic, including a 56-inch 4K monitor with a display resolution of 3840×2160 pixels. The LUM-560W is targeted at high-end cinema post production, military and industrial applications. TV Logic also introduced a line of largescreen LCD monitors that are LED backlit and feature 120 Hz refresh rates, as well as a 46” narrow-bezel videowall monitor with a built-in 6×6 display processor.
