All new technologies incorporated into the new Lucidium lineup include:
Frame Forward Motion. NuVision Deep Black LCD panels feature extremely fast response times, as low as 5ms. FFM takes this a step further by creating additional interpolated frames, creating breathtakingly clear fast motion sports and action.
Film Times Five. Hollywood film has always been photographed at a rate of 24 frames per second. Most HDTV’s display video at 60 frames per second. When 24fps material is displayed, a mathematical algorithm (3:2 pulldown) is usually required to smooth out the jittery motion that occurs when the camera pans from side-to side. FX5 technology eliminates the need for complex mathematical algorithms by simply displaying each film frame 5 times on the display – creating an effective rate of 120 frames per second. A perfect multiple creates a perfect picture every time.
• Digital Switching Deep Black. NuVision DSDB dynamically adjusts the LCD backlight according to the material being displayed. This technology, in conjunction with NuVision Deep Black LCD panels, results incredible depth of field and effective contrast ratios up to 15,000:1
• Deep Color Spectrum. Select NuVision Deep Black LCD panels feature DCS technology which widens the color gamut of the LCD panel to expand the LCD color space. The result is brilliantly lifelike color – with colors you may have never seen before when displaying familiar content.
• NuColor x.v. NuVision creates the ultimate in wide x.v. color space, by providing a true end-to-end 10 bit signal path, incorporating DCS spectrum, and HDMI 1.3 NuVision creates breathtakingly lifelike color with the ability to recreate over 1.07 Billion unique colors.
• NuControl. NuVision understands the needs of custom integrators. Every NuVision set from 22- 65-inch model includes our exclusive NuControl port. NuControl offers bi-directional RS232 protocol, in addition to IR pass-thru to control other devices, and IR input to control the TV. With NuVision you’ll never look at an ugly IR emitter or receiver again – simply plug into NuControl with our range of NuWire IR distribution accessories and create an instant IR control network. No power supply to plug in, and no wires to cut, NuControl makes custom integration easy.
“Also available for the Lucidium line is the NuWire MultiView NCMVIR46 High Definition Amplified Cat-5 Distribution and Control Module, which is made specifically for use with NuVision branded televisions and monitors,”? added Deley. “It combines component over Cat-5 and with control for all NuVision displays, and can control four high-definition source devices. The MultiView NCMVIR46 can learn and store IR command for source devices and includes discrete display commands, discrete source selection commands, and play all command (Super Bowl mode).”?

Simply connect the CAT5 cable from the MultiView NCMVIR46 to any NuVision display with a NuWireA® RJ45 connection for plug-n-play HD distribution and control.
