If you're confused about choosing an LCD, Plasma or rear
projection TV, you choice got a little harder with the introduction
of the SED TV (surface-conduction
electron-emitter display). Toshiba and Canon are launching
the SED television technology next year.
Apparently SED is clearer and crisper than all other forms
of flat screen technology. The system is similar to CRT
however instead of only using 3
electron guns, SED technology uses thousands of tiny electron
emitters, one for every single pixel on the flat screen display.
Canon is behind SED which they began experimenting with
over 20 years ago. In 2004 they partnered with Toshiba to
focus more effort on this project and are investing $2
billion to develop and manufacture the flat screen panels
in Asia.
Canon's goal is to have a consumer ready TV by 2006, to
tap into the billion dollar flat screen market. The first
model will be 55 inches in width.

SED stands for Surface-conduction Electron-emitter Display.

- The Wikipedia definition
for SED is as follows, A Surface-conduction
Electron-emitter Display (SED) is a flat panel display
technology that uses surface conduction electron emitters
for every individual display pixel. The surface conduction
electron emitter emits electrons that excite a phosphor
coating on the display panel, the same basic concept found
in traditional cathode ray tube (CRT) televisions. read
