LG releases 100-inch display home theatre system in Australia LG's 100-inch display home cinema system. LG Australia has released a home theatre system that projects movies onto a giant 100-inch (254 cm) Laser display from 56 centimetres away. Pitched as an affordable leap forward for home cinema users, the home cinema kit includes the 100-inch full HD (1080p) display, projector and a 1 terabyte twin HD tuner recorder and 3D BluRay player. But be prepared to have a living room big enough for the display, along with a well-planned route for getting it into your home. LG says its recommended price of $8,999 is competitive for a screen of that size which normally is reserved for commercial use. LG first showed off the giant display at this January's Consumer Electronics Show held in Las Vegas. The display has an anti-reflective screen which LG says provides great picture quality even in brightly lit surroundings. It says placing the projector so close to the screen delivers a huge advantage over many traditional projectors. The laser projection is delivered by 36 laser diodes embedded in the projection unit that eliminate the need for mercury-based lamps, LG said in a statement. This delivered longer projector lamp life: up to 25,000 hours in economy mode, the equivalent of 5 hours use each day for 13 years, it said. The system is pitched at home users, however LG says it is also well suited for flexible business applications such as video conferencing and wireless multimedia presentations through the added convenience of Intel's WiDi function. The 100-inch Laser Display bundle will include free installation initially and be available exclusively at Harvey Norman stores from the middle of next month.
