16:9 widescreen aspect ratio
An aspect ratio is an expression of a video
im
age's width compared to its height. The 16:9
widescreen aspect ratio is standard for
universal to high-definition television and

picture and without the quality loss than comes
from scaling, altering an image to fit on a
different screen size.

On-Off response time is the period required
for a liqui
d crystal cell to go from active (black)
to inactive (white) and back to active (black)
again. It is measured in milliseconds. Faster is
better: Lower response time means faster
transitions and, therefore, results in fewer
visible image artifacts in the display of
transition of texts and graphics. On-Off
response time is a more important measure in
the display of business content like documents,
graphs and photos.
