Under the CEATEC JAPAN 2014 theme of “NEXT – Technology Makes the Future,” the CEATEC AWARD 2014 winners are selected from technologies, products, services and systems on exhibit that show outstanding potential and innovation. Among these, Sharp’s full-spec 8K LCD display has won the Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications Award.

Alongside The Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry Award, The Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications Award is one of the highest awards, and is presented for technologies, products and services that demonstrate superior levels of innovation and that hold promise of contributing to economic invigoration and the creation of the prosperous lifestyles of the future through novel and advanced network and ICT technologies.

Sharp’s winning LCD display is the world’s first full-spec 8K super hi-vision device, and delivers video with overwhelming presence and power. The 8K super hi-vision standard was first investigated through research and development carried out by the Japan Broadcasting Corporation (NHK) in 1995. Commercial broadcasting in this format is scheduled to commence in 2018. With 4 times as many pixels as 4K broadcasting, the 8K format can deliver video expressiveness with unprecedented quality.

To meet Japan’s 8K commercial broadcasting planned to start in 2018, Sharp has developed this product to provide viewers the immersive experience of actually “being there” with its exciting and inspiring video.
