Mitsubishi astonishes CEATEC with gigantic 155-inch OLED display

Mitsubishi astonishes CEATEC with gigantic 155-inch OLED display
And to think we were impressed with the Zune HD's 3.3-inch OLED display. That would be positively puny next to this Mitsubishi 155-inch OLED TV sitting on the show floor of CEATEC 2009 in Japan. This massive monitor is even bigger than that gigantic 150-inch Panasonic plasma screen from a couple of CES shows ago.

This monster monitor consists of 720 modular sections that are each slightly larger than that Zune HD's OLED screen — the 4x4-inch pieces are placed tightly together in a near-seamless configuration. This modular design can be expanded to any size you want. No one is saying what resolution this particular display has, but from a distance those modules seem to mesh together rather well.
We're so impressed by the contrast, sharpness and three-times brighter images of OLED displays, we only wish we had a room large enough or a bank account big enough to accommodate such a behemoth. Never mind that, you can't buy one of these yet anyway. Wait about five years, and these displays will fill entire walls at bargain prices.

From the show floor, here's a video of the screen:

Tempting: AMD DX 11 Cards Support Six Monitors as a Single Display

ATI-Eyefinity-3x2-Codemasters-GRID

AMD’s new DirectX 11 cards offer a very cool feature that most people will consider completely useless; they let you hook six monitors together and use them as a single display by way of the AMD EyeFinity tool.
While the concept might seem ludicrous to some, six monitors can pump out a whole lot of Modern Warfare 2 and it does offer cheap display technology to stores, so there will be takers for it; especially considering how cheap you can pick up an LCD monitor for these days. On the flip side, your power bill will go through the roof.

Video: Amazing 18-Foot Wide Super-HD Multi-User Multitouch Display [Multitouch]



It is probably the highest resolution interactive display outside of the military: Obscura Digital's newest, longest multitouch wall, revealed this weekend at the Hard Rock in Vegas, uses three projectors to handle 100 hi-res images and videos simultaneously in realtime.
This isn't the first Obscura Digital creation to catch our eye. We've seen 3D multitouch holograms, crazy building projections and an 8-by-4-foot Missile Command-playing multitouch wall.

The new 18-foot long wall scales across GPUs seamlessly, and automatically splits the workspace for up to 6 users to flick through Hard Rock photo and video memorabilia, with image resolution upwards of 12 megapixels.
Complementing the video tech, an audio system creates a pinpointed local audio experience, so that each user can interact with content without interfering with others.
Man, Microsoft Surface, eat your heart out. [Obscura Digital Blog]
