Digital broadcasting is becoming widespread around the world these days, so the market for household electronic appliances is expected to grow considerably. High-resolution large-screen digital television is at the forefront of this expectation. Broadcast satellite (BS) digital broadcasting will start in Japan, following Europe and the United States, in the year 2000. Hitachi will use its developed technologies in progressive scanning (the standard for next-generation television) and liquid-crystal panels (the next-generation display device) to take the initiative in developing next-generation television products. As part of this initiative, the "GA!Z" series, which represents this next-generation television for Japanese digital broadcasting, has been developed and is described in this paper.
