Sharp Quattron: Why Yellow Enables More Colors

You may have seen the recent commercials with Star Trek’s Captain Sulu (George Takei) looking at a giant-sized Sharp flat screen with Quattron technology and saying, “WHOA!”

Adding Yellow

 Quattron adds Y (yellow) to the RGB (red, green and blue) digital color scheme, which provides for colors never before seen on television, such as sparkling golds, Caribbean blues and sunflower yellows. Quattron technology includes Sharp’s X-Gen panel with a wider aperture, which allows more light to pass through and thus reducing the need for as many backlighting elements to create an extremely bright image. In addition, its LCD panel has fewer ribs than traditional panels, which seals the pixels more completely and results in deeper blacks. With Sharp Quattron, you’ll feel like you’re actually inside your TV.

On top of that, Quattron is also backlit. Quattron’s Mega Contrast provides greater precision to luminance from the backlighting function to provide unprecedented degrees of black to project incredible depth. Backlighting also makes Quattron’s AquoMotion possible. It improves fast-moving images by combining Sharp’s 120 Hz Fine Motion technology with 120-backlight scanning. Fine Motion inserts 60 unique frames per second, which provides crisper images. Backlight scanning works with the panel refresh rate to reduce motion blur, which provides an increased picture quality.

Additional Quattron Features

Quattron’s Quad pixel plus technology means fewer jags in diagonal lines, and its UltraBrilliant LED system includes a double-dome light amplifier lens and multi-fluorescents, enabling high brightness and color purity.

hhgregg carries 40-inch, 46-inch, 52-inch, 60-inch and 70-inch flatscreen models with 1080-pixel high definition with more than 8 million dots for the sharpest image possible. They come with VyperDrive, a game mode, which transitions from the game console to the TV five times faster than normal mode to get you into the game more quickly. The flatscreens are also EnergyStar® compliant to help preserve the environment.

The flatscreens are Wi-Fi enabled to support internet content, Netflix, CinemaNow, Vudu streaming video and more. They are also equipped with IP control, which means you can use your smartphone or PC as a remote control.

Sharp AQUOS Quattron is also available in 3D. hhgregg carries 40-inch, 46-inch, 52-inch, and 60-inch flatscreen models. Use Sharp’s 3D Active Shutter Glasses to experience the 3D effect. In addition to 3D technology that makes images appear as though they are jumping off the screen, the 3D flatscreens feature theater-like audio to provide an even better 3D experience.
