Panasonic offers both 42-inch and 37-inch plasma displays for hotel rooms.
Read on to learn why these plasma displays provide hotel guests with greater
satisfaction than other displays.
Why Panasonic plasma displays are recommended
for hotel use
Sometimes, when replacing a 4:3 ratio display with a 16:9 model, the screen can seem
smaller even though it is larger in inches. This is because screen sizes are measured
diagonally. On 4:3 and 16:9 TVs, the width of a 32-inch screen is greater than that of a
29-inch screen, but their heights are about the same. Since our eyes perceive
differences in height more easily than differences in width, the screen can look smaller.
In order to meet guest expectations for watching movies, sports and other programs,
you need to provide a screen height that makes the images more dynamic. If you are
replacing a 29-inch 4:3 monitor, a 42-inch or larger plasma display is ideal.
A wide screen for more dynamic images
Plasma displays are ideal for use in normally lighted hotel
rooms. Because they are self-illuminating, these displays
are also very well suited to watching movies or other
programs with the lights dimmed. Indeed, plasma displays
produce beautifully balanced images under virtually all
hotel room lighting conditions.
Both still images and fast-action
moving images are sharp and clear.
Live sports events and action-filled
games are beautifully produced,
without any afterimages. Even fine
titles are easy and comfortable to read.
Crisp black reproduction
High moving-picture resolution
Unlike in a living rooms, guests are likely to view the display from
various different places in a hotel room, depending on the situation.
Because of this, the ideal display is one where the image is
beautiful from any angle — which is another important plasma
display advantage.
Wide viewing angle
The ideal viewing distance for a high-definition display
is about 3 times the screen height. Because the
images are free of colour bleeding and flicker, there is
less strain on the eyes even when viewed from close
up. Guests can enjoy stunningly beautiful images on
a 42-inch model from only about 1.5 meters away.
* The ideal viewing distance for a conventional CRT model
with a 4:3 aspect ratio is about 5 to 7 times the screen height.
The plasma display is only about 1/6 as thick as a CRT
model, so it's even easier to provide the ideal viewing
distance. This is an important plasma display advantage.
Large-screen enjoyment even
in a small room
Dynamic, large-screen
plasma displays are strongly
recommended for providing
guests with superb movie
and sports entertainment.

A 29-inch 4:3 TV vs. a 32-inch and 42-inch 16:9 TV
* Even though the overall size in inches is larger, the height is less by 1.4 cm.
On a typical store sales floor... Images can sometimes
appear a bit pale.
In a hotel room... The crisp, robust blacks give images
outstanding depth.
Colours remain exactly the same
when viewed from the front and from
an angle.
