The panel that Toshiba plans to introduce is known as the “Kira 2”. This uses a locally dimmed LED backlight with 512 clusters of LEDs — compared to just 96 clusters in current Toshiba models. This should all but eliminate the halo effect seen on today’s local dimming TVs. Kira 2 will also offer increased brightness and, Toshiba claims, phenomenal contrast ratios of up to 9,000,000:1. Lange concluded his presentation with an announcement that the Cell TVs should be available in Europe from autumn 2010.
