New Record World's Largest HDTV

Mitsubishi has topped them all, building a high-definition video screen at a horseracing track in Tokyo that's 218 feet wide and 37 feet tall, taking up 8000 square feet—that's nearly a fifth of an acre. The screen, delivered in 35 pieces and assembled at the Tokyo racecourse, uses Mitsubishi's Aurora Vision LED technology.

The screen now holds the record of the world’s largest HDTV, which earlier belonged to the 137 feet large LED screen, which is located at Dolphin Stadium in Miami. The huge display employs Mitsubishi’s Aurora Vision LED technology and it reportedly costs $28 million. [ via ]
