Blu-ray Home Cinema
04/07/2012
Blu-Ray technology provides the best high definition home cinema experience available. It offers a crisp picture and sound to enable viewers to enjoy films as if they were at a cinema.
The Blu-ray format was developed to enable faster recording, rewriting and playback of high-definition video (HD), and data.
A Blu-Ray disc is the next generation of DVD and works by storing data in many layers, allowing five times the storage capacity of DVDs.
The reason it is called ‘Blu’ is because of the colour of the laser that reads the disc. Blue light has a shorter wavelength than red light, enabling the data to be more tightly packed together.
Blu-Ray discs can hold up to 25GB on a single-layer disc and 50GB on a dual-layer disc. Triple layer discs are not common at present but are a likely development in the next few years.
This high storage capacity allows for high definition movies to be stored easily. So next time you choose a movie to watch at home, make sure you choose a Blu-Ray disc and player for the best sound and picture quality available.
