The new 3D plasma display as well as a smaller, 85-inch 3D model, are currently on display at Integrate, which is held in Sydney.
Panasonic Australia’s Group Manager, AVIT, David Cuckney said that the 103-inch display is currently Australia’s largest 3D plasma.
The display claims to have a native contrast ratio of 5,000,000:1, a ‘high speed drive technology’ that improves moving pictures and ‘crosstalk reduction technology’ that produces clear and crisp 3D images.
The commercial models have also been equipped with Panasonic’s convenient function slots, ‘SLOT 2.0’, compatible with various interfaces such as DVI and HD-SDI, offering expandability to meet the needs of professional users.
In addition, the company also claims that the 103-inch is able to produce the most realistic images but uses less power than its previous non-3D model.

Cuckney said that the new Full HD 3D Neo Plasmas are ideal for a broad spectrum of applications including: entertainment staging, as a sales tool in car showrooms or the housing industry, for viewing 3D CAD images to improve design accuracy, high-end customised home theatre applications, 3D games, and clear and detailed displays for advanced healthcare environments or educational institutions.
Mark Deere-Jones, Director, Business Systems Group, Panasonic Australia said: “This is an exciting development for 3D technology. Seeing 3D images on a screen this size is truly amazing. It offers true to life immersive images perfect for commercial installations. These panels are ideal for high-profile installations within the hospitality sector or in convention centres. Additionally, they will create a standout custom home cinema.”
The 103-inch and 85-inch Full HD 3D commercial Plasma panels will be available in Australia in January 2011. Pricing will be announced closer to the release date.
