2012 International CES
NEW YORK–Mitsubishi Electric Visual Solutions America, Inc. (MEVSA), the leader in large-screen television, has been named an International CES Innovations 2012 Design and Engineering Awards Honoree for its 92-inch 3D DLP® Home Cinema TV (WD-92840). Products entered in this prestigious program are judged by a preeminent panel of independent industrial designers, engineers, and members of the media to honor outstanding design and engineering in cutting-edge consumer electronics products across 32 product categories.
Mitsubishi’s 92-inch 3D DLP Home Cinema TV is the largest mass-produced TV on the market, covering a surface area greater than four standard 46-inch TVs combined. Mitsubishi’s 92-inch TV includes a 16-speaker, fully immersive Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound system; new Clear Contrast Screen; Perfect Color™; Perfect Tint™; and the same 3D DLP technology used by 90 percent of 3D movie theaters. The TV is affordably priced, driving adoption of 3D TVs by American families, who can now enjoy a cinematic TV experience in the comfort of their home.
“We’re proud and honored to add this prestigious CES accolade to our portfolio of award-winning products,” says James Chan, Vice President, Marketing at Mitsubishi Electric Visual Solutions America, Inc. “This validation reinforces our mission to offer unique, high-quality performance and tremendous value to customers who want a true, immersive home theater experience, and realize that there are better alternatives in the marketplace than commoditized flat screens.”
The prestigious Innovations Design and Engineering Awards are sponsored by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA)®, the producer of the International CES, the world’s largest consumer technology tradeshow, and have been recognizing achievements in product design and engineering since 1976. The Best of Innovations honor is awarded to the products with the highest judges’ scores and will be featured in the Innovations Design and Engineering Showcase at the 2012 International CES.
Mitsubishi’s 92-inch 3D DLP Home Cinema TV will be displayed at the 2012 International CES, which runs Jan. 10-13, 2012 in Las Vegas. Honorees will also be displayed at CES Unveiled: the official press event of the International CES from 4 p.m. – 7 p.m. on Sunday, Jan. 8 in the Venetian Ballroom of the Venetian.

• Engineering qualities, based on technical specs and materials used
• Aesthetic and design qualities
• The product’s intended use/function and user value
• Unique/novel features that consumers would find attractive
• How the design and innovation of the product compares to other products in the marketplace
