8K Association Announces
The 8K Association (8KA), a cross-industry group focused on facilitating the development of the 8K ecosystem, is pleased to announce that key performance characteristics for 8K TVs are defined as part of the 8KA technical program. Performance criteria were created in concert with the association's membership, including a strong pulse on current and future technology trends within the 8K ecosystem with current consumer electronics brands, panel makers, and other leadership companies.
"Defining key features for an 8K TV specification demonstrates 8KA's focus on quickly defining key steps in the development of next-generation video technology," said 8KA executive director, Chris Chinock. "A great testament to the cooperative spirit to reach this milestone is the 8K Association members enjoy with our shared enthusiasm for the 8K ecosystem expansion."
8K refers to the latest and highest-resolution standard for content creation, distribution, and television display that enables a resolution of over 33 million pixels, 4 times faster than the UHD / 4K standard. The new 8K TV specification, now defined by the 8K Association, includes recommended performance levels for high dynamic range (HDR) and color performance, along with interface requirements to help consumers trust their newly purchased 8K TV. A compliance test set will be developed next by members of the 8K association, thus enabling a transparent testing process. 8KA plans to promote a logo on any member's 8K TV that meets or exceeds the newly defined technical standard.
With the new defined performance standard, the 8K Association continues to grow rapidly with its wider membership, more than doubling the previous months. The newest members of the organization are video capture, television chipset technology, audio and video technology providers and video entertainment manufacturers, all focusing on efforts to promote the rapid development of 8K content, distribution and display. According to data from top market researchers, 8KA subscriptions now include TV brands that account for more than 40% of the TV market in the first half of 2019 in the United States and 90% of the projected 8K panel production to date. With a broad representation of companies that are driving the future of high-resolution TVs and displays, the 8K Association hopes to work together to define and promote 8K technology standards in the content, distribution, and display ecosystem. Will continue to do. .
8KA welcomes its new members: Astro Design, ATEME, Chile, Inolux, Intel, Luis Pictures, Novatech, Samsung Display, Tencent, V-Silicon and Experi. They connect with Samsung Electronics, Panasonic. AU Optronics, Hisense and TCL. Also in the process of joining is UltraFlix.
"A rapidly growing membership is a sign that we are on the right track and see the value of the work that other companies are doing," Chinock said. "We look forward to announcing additional high-level members in the near term that will expand our efforts to other parts of the ecosystem and allow us to educate and deliver positive 8K messages to professionals and consumers."
The newly released technology spec includes 8K input parameters (bit depth, frame rate, chroma sub-sampling), display performance (resolution, peak brightness, black level, color gamut, white point) and interface and media format (high) dynamic range. , Codec).
Resolution: 7680 x 4320 pixels
Input Frame Rate: 24p, 30p and 60p frames per second
Display Luminance: Over 600 Nits Peak Luminance
Codec: HEVC
Interface: HDMI 2.1
