The picture manipulation features are made possible by employing a gate array widescreen signal processor and solid state memory, although it would be a misnomer to call the sets digital televi- sions. The sets combine elements of an- alog NTSC with some digital signal processing, resulting in a product that represents a transition between current televisions and HDTV. However, the transition comes at a telatively hefty price. At presstime, Thomson’s prices were expected to range from about $4,000 to $5,000— this for screens 27 inches high, 48 inches wide and 34 inches on the diagonal. Other features included in the price are progressive scan, IDTV signal process- ing, digital video noise reduction and Dolby Pro-Logic surround-sound proc- essing with 10 watts of amplification. The combination of a wider aspect ratio and progressive scan in Thomson’s sets should deliver a more pleasing pack- age than conventional NTSC receivers. But much will depend on the quality of the program source. Anytime you en- large an image, resolution suffers and picture artifacts become more notice- able. Those familiar with movies on la- serdisc, for example, know that disc quality varies with the quality of the master, the film-to-disc transfer and even the pressing process. Any visual imperfections in a laserdisc image will be magnified as it’s zoomed to fill the 16:9 TV screen. FUTURE PROJECTIONS Both Philips and JVC are working on direct-view sets for introduction next year, while Panasonic and perhaps one or two other manufacturers will focus on projection models.
