In the Future Zone of this year`s IFA trade fair in Berlin, Philips Research will demonstrate its thinnest 32`` liquid crystal display (LCD) prototype on show. With a 1mm light guide, Philips Research has created a display prototype of only 8mm. When incorporated into a TV set, Philips expects that this ultra-thin LCD will tap into consumers` desire to easily hang their flat-screen TVs on the wall - just as they would do with a painting.
