Key Technologies
BRAVIA Engine™ Full Digital Video Processor
BRAVIA® S-Series LCD televisions use Sony's BRAVIA Engine™
full digital video processor for crisp and clear images. Several special picture enhancement technologies are
integrated into the processor to create better gradations and details, enhance contrast, dynamically improve color,
and reduce image flicker.
HDMI™ and PC Connectivity
Designed for maximum versatility, Sony’s BRAVIA S-Series Digital LCD TV line is
equipped with a comprehensive range of input interfaces. The HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the
first industry-supported, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface. HDMI technology supports enhanced or
High Definition video, together with multi-channel digital audio to provide matchless image and sound
reproduction. The PC input (HD-15-pin) offers easy connection to your PC, allowing you to use your high resolution
BRAVIA S-Series Digital TV as a computer monitor.
Light Sensor
Intelligently adjusts the screen brightness to match the ambient light in a room, ensuring a
comfortable viewing experience. In a dim room for example the screen automatically reduces brightness making
it much more comfortable for viewing.
SRS® TruSurround® XT
Building on the success of TruSurround technology, TruSurround XT audio adds three new
audio enhancement technologies to produce an amazingly immersive sound experience. Dialog Clarity™ brings
movie dialog into “ focus” during the playback of any surround-encoded material to make speech much clearer and
crisper. TruBass creates incredible deep rich bass allowing a person to perceive significantly deeper, richer low
bass tones that are far beyond the physical low frequency capabilities of the speaker itself. And WOW widens the
soundstage by processing standard two-channel stereo material as well as multi-channel encoded material for a
dramatic improvement in the playback of any stereo audio over a two-speaker system.
Freeze Function
Sony’s Freeze Function is a useful function that allows you to temporarily freeze the picture in a
separate screen while the programming continues to display. This comes in handy when you want to copy a recipe,
phone number, etc. that flashes too quickly across your screen. Simply touch the “ Freeze” button on the remote
control and copy the details down at your convenience.
