HP today introduced its new color-critical
computer professional display, available for less than a quarter
of the cost of competing offerings.
The HP DreamColor Display features a new
liquid crystal display (LCD) that provides a range of more
than 1 billion colors in a 30-bit, LED-backlit display. The
display is now shipping worldwide for a U.S. list price of
$3,499.(1)
The display is the result of an unprecedented
technology collaboration with DreamWorks Animation SKG Inc.
(NYSE: DWA) and addresses an increasingly critical need for
affordable and consistent color accuracy in the animation,
game development, film/video post, broadcast, product design
and graphic arts categories.
The HP DreamColor display is expected to
disrupt the economics of color management, making it possible,
for the first time, to have a color-critical LCD display on
every desk to make color checks, redesigns and multiple proofs
a thing of the past.
“With the new DreamColor display, HP
has broken through barriers that have existed in display technology
for the past decade,” said Ed Leonard, chief technology
officer, DreamWorks Animation. “The new DreamColor display
packs a list of significant advances into one amazingly powerful
display, enabling an unprecedented level of color management
and fidelity in our production process. It’s a digital
filmmaker’s dream.”
Designed for professionals for whom accurate
color management is essential and consumers who seek to use
only the best in technology innovations, the HP DreamColor
display achieves more than 64 times the colors available on
mainstream LCDs. Reds, blues and greens are visibly deeper,
blacks are four times darker and whites are adjustable.
The DreamColor display is designed to match
the requirements of professional industry standards and includes
one-button access to seven pre-sets covering all the important
color space standards. The display also includes a night vision
interface for darkroom working conditions.
“Until now, accurate and standout color
has been out of reach for the majority of digital content
creators,” said Jun Kim, vice president and general manager,
Displays, Personal Systems Group, HP. “Our DreamColor
display advances color accuracy for the world’s storytellers
– our most demanding of customers of performance technologies.”
The new HP DreamColor display includes the
HP DreamColor engine software, which manages the display to
deliver reliable, accurate, easy color, every time, and the
DreamColor calibration kit for precision calibration.
The HP DreamColor LP2480xz is the first
display to be introduced under the HP DreamColor Technology
initiative, a two-year technology collaboration between HP
and DreamWorks Animation that aims to deliver accurate color
that remains consistent from application to application, device
to device, and medium to medium. HP introduced the first printers
built on the DreamColor engine in March 2007.
