The Ultimate Visual Journey through
Samsung Technologies
Ever since the invention of television, people have wanted to see a bigger
and better picture. Digital displays allowed for larger screens, but demand
for higher picture quality remained unfulfilled.
Digital Natural Image engine, DNIe
TM
Samsung's dream is to fulfill the demand for lifelike picture
quality by creating natural images with vivid color, and optimal
detail and contrast. Our proprietary DNIe
TM
technology, developed through
aggressive research & development and 30 years of experience, achieves this
dream by taking any signal from a conventional broadcast source and turning
it into a stunning picture on any screen.
A sophisticated algorithm called DNIe
TM
, Motion Optimizer takes visual data and automatically breaks them into
signal and noise, to adjust and eliminate noise and blur without the slightest damage to the original signal. This
guarantees the viewer a picture of astounding sharpness, whether the scene is still or moving.

‚ Color Optimizer calculates the saturation of red, green, and blue in the input signal and
adjusts it to shades that the human eye accepts as natural. Even a conventional process like white tone
enhancement produces more striking results when used with DNIe
TM
. The result is a palette of vivid hues and
pure white tones to satisfy the most discerning viewer's eye.

Conventional contrast enhancers produce noise boosts and flickers that create unwanted visual distractions.
DNIe
TM
‚ Contrast Enhancer has done away with these problems by developing an epoch-making algorithm
called, Contrast Enhancer that recognizes over 1 million criteria for applying contrast, and automatically ana-
lyzes up to 70,000 local images within a frame - treating the viewer to a picture rich in contrast, even in the
tiniest details.
Contrast Enhancer boosts light and shade
Conventional DNIe™
Conventional detail enhancers create unnatural effects by relying on artificial amplification of the input signal.
In contrast, DNIe
TM
‚ Detail Enhancer automatically analyzes the portion to be amplified, detecting and repro-
cessing disturbance to bring the viewer a startlingly sharp and lifelike image.
Detail Enhancer sharpens the edges
Conventional DNIe™
Samsung has reduced the phenomenon of false contours that occurred on conventional Plasma Monitor by
developing a new technology. The process enables natural conversion of an image, allowing Samsung Plasma
Monitor to display clearer, more life-like images on the screen.

Conventional Plasma Monitor Samsung New Plasma Monitor
Samsung Plasma Monitor provides the clearest expression of natural lights on its 12 bit System with 68.7 bil-
lion colors, from the faint sunlight at dawn to the extreme spotlights in a colorful fashion show. Unlike com-
petitor products which produce 1 billion colors with 10 bit processing at the circuit (or panel) level, Samsung
Plasma Monitor has 12 bit processing not only at the digital circuit level with DNIe
TM
(Digital Natural Image
engine) at the core but also at the panel that visualizes signals through 12 bit System. As a result, Samsung
Plasma Monitor can express the natural colors with 4,096 grey scales. Vivid and lifelike images are revealed
just like you would see them with your own eyes.
