Philips presents a new 52-inch Quad Full Autosteroscopic 3D HDTV at a 3D event in Hollywood. Philips’ 3D HDTV is able to offer 3,840 x 2,160 resolution.

The Quad 3D TV’s large collection of pixels produce images take advantage of the same ol’ right-left human optical trick, and its speed slaps the images together at once. This creates a large viewing angle (160 degrees) and a very high image contrast. Otherwise, the images wouldn’t pop out of the screen — they’d look transparent and uselessly weak.

Other than HDTVs, Philips introduces at the IFA 2008 also the Ambisound HTS8140 DVD Home Theater System.

The Ambisound HTS8140 system comes with four speaker towers, a dedicated centre speaker, a super-slim main DVD/amplifier unit that can be wall or stand mounted and a subwoofer that comes with a 150 watt Class ‘D’ digital amplifier.

The system features the Philips 9.1 Cinema Sound technology, that can create a 9 speakers experience with the five speakers available. Each of the tower speakers has a high quality 18mm soft dome tweeter plus a 2.5″ woofer for conventional 5.1 reproductions with two additional, specifically angled 2.5″ full range driver. Together, they create the 9.1 Cinema Sound effect.
