The Future Of 3D Home Theater: LaserTV! Mitsubishi's 75-LT1 Being Released In Japan This Month

As far as I am concerned, Laser TV is the future of 3D home entertainment - and the price will get lower as time goes by. The Mitsubishi 75-LT1 is being released on August 21 in Japan for the rather hefty price tag of $8500.

So what makes it so great? Other than it's impressive size which is 75 inches and resolution (1920x1080), it utilizes the company's Laser TV technology. The lasers DOUBLE the color range of what is found on a normal HDTV and at the same time using about a quarter of what current TVs use in power consumption. LCDs and Plasmas can only reproduce about 40% of the colors a human eye can see, while a Laser TV can reproduce 90%. Further, that color intensity lasts for the life of the TV while others technologies don't. Laser TVs are typically about half the weight of LCDs and Plasmas too.

Two pairs of active shutter 3D glasses are included in the price.

The 75-LT1 also comes with a built-in BS.110/CS digital TV Tuner, 5x HDMI inputs and 1x HDMI output, 1x D-Sub port, built-in 2x 10Watts speakers and 3x S-Video ports.

Sounds stunning to me! Would love to try out one of these things... Mitsubishi, send me an email will you? I want to review!! :-) Will let you know about North American availability ASAP.

Mitsubishi Set To Produce A Lineup of Eight 3D Ready HDTVs

Jim here. Mitsubishi may not the only one producing 3D ready HDTVs, but they sure are cutting to the chase. They will be running with no less than eight different 3D ready HDTVs this year and one of them will be a mammoth 82-inch DLP Model WD-82737 says Dealerscope.

And Mitsubishi has 67- and 75-inch screen sizes in its second-generation LaserVue laser TV series in the planning stages, while already shipping the 65-inch model (pictured).

Laser TVs are the next generation of flat screens that make Plasma and LED blush in comparison - and they are VERY 3D friendly allowing potential polarization right at the light source. Make sure Santa knows you want this on your list...

Thanks for the tip Kyle!

3D Home Theater - How the heck are we gonna do that? LASER TV.

We are staying on top of not only 3D theaters, but what technology is being developed to bring 3D movies into your home. After all, with these 3D movies coming soon - the industry is going to what to sell you the movie to own too.

Not only do the new Laser TVs have twice the range of colors than what's currently available, and are thinner, lighter and use less electricity - but they also SUPPORT 3D.

While the smaller screens will still use LCD, Plasma is going to be kicked out in favor of the Laser TV for the 40"+ sizes. Its a brand new category of TVs folks.

Unfortunately Mitsubishi is going to miss its planned Christmas 2007 launch - HOWEVER, they are set to make a huge announcement at the CES show in Vegas in January, 2008. Mitsubishi along with Sony and Novalux have already shown 'prototypes' at this year's CES. They have already had very lucrative offers to buy their prototypes for private individual's home theaters - but they have to demo to the various outsourced manufacturing facilities too.

You will still need glasses until such time as Ed Meyer's and/or Steven Spielberg's Glass-less systems are available (see my recent exclusive interview discussing these details).

I will have complete reviews and images of 3D compliant home theaters options whenever they come available. Perhaps we can get a spy shot or concept image of one like we managed for Avatar's Ney'tiri... :-)
