This graphics system uses the SMPTE-240M HDTV standard and supports also all the high resolution display formats commonly available (HDTV 1920 times 1035 interlaced, 2048 times 2048, 2048 times 1536, etc.) with a 16.7 million color architecture. It uses six graphics accelerators (100,000 short-vectors/sec), very high speed circuitry as well as a VME interface for communication with host computer. The introduction of this graphics system, along with the software environment provided by the NEWS Workstations will facilitate the use of the unique capabilities embedded in the SMPTE 240M HDTV standard in its applications to electronic printing and publishing, industrial design and the motion picture industry.", "abstract$meta": { "confidence": "high", "note": "Parsed from NLM article XML (_source/SMPTE/HIGHWIRE/Source Bak/smptem/10.5594_M00751.xml)", "source": "parsed", "updated": "2026-05-22T21:44:19.125Z", "version": "smpte-conference-paper-nlm@v1" }, "authors": [ { "affiliation": "Sony Corporation Teaneck, N.J.", "bio": "Taka H.
