    By Gary Reber
    GEO Semiconductor today announced the design-in of its Realta™ Platform into the Instant HQV HDMI 1.3 Video Scaler Box CSO-T2 offered by Cypress Technology Co. Ltd. GEO’s Realta™ Platform enables customers to offer systems that convert Standard Definition (SD) content to full High Definition (HD) along with advanced capabilities such as motion compensated noise reduction and TV standards conversion along with support of all key industry cadence sequences. End customers of these systems enjoy rich, high resolution video content on their display devices, including LCD televisions and home theater projectors. GEO’s RealtaTM Platform is the only chipset platform that allows consumers to achieve full compliance with the “HQV powered by Teranex” industry benchmark.
     
    Designed around the Realta Platform, the Cypress Technology Instant HQV enables users to convert standard definition content (PAL/NTSC) into crisp, detailed and artifact-free HD signals for advanced TV and projector systems offering full HD capabilities.
     
    Commenting on the benefits of the RealtaTM Platform, Frank Chye, Vice President at Cypress Technology Co. Ltd., said, "GEO Semiconductor’s RealtaTM Platform enabled us to develop a product that offers our customers a very sophisticated user experience that maximizes their viewing pleasure.

    Reason #34 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I was always told to seek the superlative, and where home entertainment is concerned, WSR makes sure that my reach always exceeds my grasp. Fortunately, in this case, it's a good thing. I can count on WSR to always go beyond what every other magazine in the industry can provide. It has inspired me to explore the concepts, both technical and subjective, to the extent that I even feel smarter about home entertainment technology. Hardware and software are both dealt with in an informative and engaging way, so the value of the magazine surpasses its modest price. WSR has been a great inspiration for my wishes and dreams. I wish I could afford the ultra wares I see covered in the magazine. Nevertheless, I am wiser because I have gained a sense of judgment through reading WSR. (I must admit to having a bit of common sense, though, since I have been using Monster Cable products for over 10 years!) I hope WSR will continue to ignite the interest in its audience as it has up to now.
