HD-ILA - Direct-drive Image Light Amplifier

What is the Deal with HD-ILA?

Overview:
HD-ILA (Direct-drive Image Light Amplifier) also known as D-ILA and ILA, is a tecnology that JVC has developed that uses the LCoS(Liquid Crystal on Silicon) projection technology. To put it short HD-ILA is a LCoS TV with features.

The D-ILA device, a special LCOS technology developed by JVC, is a reflective type of LCD that delivers a greater amount of light than a transmissive LCD panel and is comprised of groups of pixels which correspond to each image dot. Also, unlike conventional LCD panels (in which the switches and electronics are mounted on the same surface as the pixels), the D-ILA 's driving IC substrate is located behind the liquid crystal layer. Because of this, the “screen door effect” found in many LCD projectors is eliminated almost entirely, leaving a nearly-seamless picture which is very impressive. D-ILA and DLP will be battling it out for the next several years, something that will undoubtedly be good for the market and will result in some excellent "trickle-down" technologies for the home theater user.

One key advantage that D-ILA has, is the ability to have smaller pixels than existing DLP, Plasma, and LCD technologies. DLP runs about 2.1 million pixels, where as LCoS with D-ILA can have 3.1 million. More Pixels are always good!
