What is HD?

It's quite often we hear about the word "HD", it's actually the abbreviation for High Definition, 高清in Chinese. HD is a technology that provides picture quality similar to 35mm movies with sound quality similar to today's CD. HDTV (Hi-Def Television) has already available in countries like US, UK, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea that provides good quality in both audio and visual. It's like watching high quality DVD through terrestrial TV channels. I wish Malaysia would have one in the coming future.

This is the difference of image quality between HD and without HD. 

HD gives sharper image.

In spite of those home appliances like TV, there's also a lot of products that claim themselves having HD effects. Recently, I saw a Taiwan contact lens advertisement that claims themselves providing HD effects. Oh my god, it's too much, it became a trend of giving the "HD"on it, seemed overusing the name.

Technology of TV has also lifted from traditional huge-box CRT TV to light-weighted LCD TV. Most remarkable difference between both TVs is the audio and visual quality provided, Full HD LCD TV provides ultra-high definition 1080 lines of vertical resolution, another name for Full HD is 1080p , letter "p" stands for progressive scan, which means the image is not interlaced. 1080p gives the equivalent quality of Blu-ray disc. With that, we can enjoy the vividness of movie like you can touch and feel it lively.
