Dolby and SIM2 Multimedia are proud to showcase a new prototype high-dynamic-range (HDR)-enabled LCD flat-screen display using Dolby's new light emitting diodes (LED) local dimming technology. Dolby's HDR technologies utilize the capabilities of LED-based backlight units (BLUs) to provide outstanding contrast combined with crisp brightness to deliver picture quality that matches real-world visual perception of depth, detail, and color.

As part of the collaboration effort, SIM2 designed and developed the BLU, which drives the electronics of the LCD display, plus the BLU and BLU thermal management system. In addition to the prototype development, SIM2 will provide Dolby with manufacturing reference designs. Dolby and SIM2 are showcasing the prototype in New York City today and will be sharing its latest LCD display innovation in cities around the world.
