4K UHD resolution offers considerable value in control room environments. These nine considerations will help you get the most out of the technology when using it in existing wall displays.
In general, 4K UHD refers to an input, display panel or projector that has four times the resolution of high-definition (HD) video. 4K UHD actually defines two different resolutions. Ultra High Definition (UHD) resolution delivers 3840 x 2160 (8.3 million) pixels and Cinematic 4K delivers 4096 x 2160 (8.8 million) pixels. Both resolutions significantly enhance an operator’s ability to monitor finely detailed imagery.
4K UHD also defines much broader color depth. High Definition was 8 bit, whereas 4K UHD is 10 bit. This results in deeper, richer colors and a more lifelike viewing experience.
