These days, 4K resolution on a TV is already quite the eye-candy. But Sharp wants to take it a step further. Hence, today, the company not only announced the expansion of its 4K TV lineup, but also launched the first commercially available TV with a stunning 8K resolution, bringing a whole new level of detail to your viewing pleasure.

Even so, the company wants to take advantage of such technology in its application to fields other than entertainment. It can for example, be used as an added layer of security to keep track of numerous people in one screen, surgeons can now perform more effectively, as they’ll be able to clearly see things in more detail. Quality checks can now be more stringent, as defects that can’t be seen by the naked eye can now be easily identified.
