Modern TVs are unrecognisable when compared to their first ancestors. You used to have to sit a meter away if you wanted to see anything at all and you only got black and white with the first models. Since then we have had stereo sound, widescreen, plasma, LCD and whole host of other developments to quench our thirst for technology.
The newest television innovation to make its way into the market is LED-lighting. LEDs are cropping up all over the place recently, in everything from car headlights to light-up crystal vases. Their popularity stems largely from their durability, their ability to create very pure light, and their energy efficiency. It is true that TVs do work very well with fluorescent lighting, but as technology continues to advance and more is demanded of screen lighting, a better alternative is now needed.
An increase in demand for faster, slicker and more defined pictures, coupled with a desire for everything to be super slim, goes some way to explain why LED lighting found its way into TVs. People want their phones, stereos and even vases slim line these days, and TVs are no different. The use of a clever light diffusion panel spreads the illumination of the LEDs evenly across the screen, meaning that the LEDs only need to be placed around the edge of the television, reducing the depth needed dramatically. This means that many models are only around an inch thick. There are also benefits in the range of colours available to view and better dynamic contrast.
The environmental friendliness of the LED lighting is another ones of its many benefits. This form of lighting uses around four times less energy than fluorescently-lit TV screens. Further more, when it comes to disposing of them, there is a great deal less pollution. Additionally, LED-lit televisions are less prone to power-surge damage and even water damage. That said, its not advised that you start resting your wine glasses on top of them, just in case.
