Aurora Systems Announces Entry Into Mobile Viewing Market
SAN JOSE, Calif., /PRNewswire/ -- Aurora Systems announced the introduction of a new line of liquid crystal on silicon products designed for mobile projection applications. Designed to meet challenging size, power and image requirements, these products are ideally suited for embedding in cellular phones and other converged devices.
The inaugural LAZR IMAGR is a single panel color field sequential device with VGA resolution. The active array of the imager has a 4.5 mm diagonal on a die size of only 5.2 mm by 7.5 mm. Patented image processing and fast response liquid crystal combine to provide 24 bit image quality at relatively low bandwidth. The LAZR DRIVR is designed to drive both VGA and SVGA resolution panels. Proprietary advances in image processing enable memory to be embedded in the driver chip to limit total chipset power consumption.
"Improvements in display methodology will drive consumer demand for mobile content and generate new revenue streams for service providers. The physical size limitation of direct view displays in portable devices and cellular handsets are pushing manufacturers to look for alternative display solutions such as embedded projectors," said Jeffrey Saake, CEO and President of Aurora Systems. "Aurora's solution meets critical market requirements for the embedded projector."
Aurora will continue to offer three panel solutions for home theater projection systems. The latest single panel, color field sequential devices enables Aurora to offer a liquid crystal on silicon platform from single panel devices for mobile viewing to high resolution, three panel devices for high definition home theater applications. A new logo and revised web site will be announced to support the new product introduction.
