Last modified: Friday, September 28, 2007
Short for Alternate Lighting of Surfaces, ALiS is a high-definition plasma panel designed for displaying 1080i. A progressive-scan plasma TV would illuminate all pixels all the time, but using an ALiS plasma displays only alternate rows (half of available pixels) of pixels are illuminated. ALiS offers bright and clear pictures with a reduction in power consumption and increased panel life.
ALiS was developed by Fujitsu.
