Why not just make a ROYGBIV TV?
14 years ago
So apparantly SHARP has made a new AQUOS LCD TV, and its a big deal because they are changing the TV color scheme from the tried and true RGB, using pixels in Red, Green, and Blue, and instead are creating a Hi-Definition TV that uses RGBY, adding Yellow pixels to the TV for brighter, more vibrant colors and a clearer, crisper 3-D effect. But this makes me personally wonder . . . ok, so Red, Blue, Green, and Yellow pixels in theory will make a TV have a much better picture . . . so why don't they just make a ROYGBIV TV? Wouldn't a TV that has pixels in Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet have a super vibrant picture then? I mean it sounds logical to me, but realistically, is it impossible to put that many pixels into a screen? Or would it not generate as crisp a picture as you'd think having more different pixels? I guess I am just curious.
And while that sounds funny saying it. These TVs make my movies look like some sorta cut scene from a video game rather then a movie. I watch those and expect any moment for the movie to stop and the next level to begin.
