Blue-ray is the next generation of computer storage technology commonly known as Blue-ray Disk (BD). When we talk about its creation, it was jointly founded by leading computer, electronics and media companies that formed the Blue-ray Disk Association (BDA). Hitachi, Dell, HP, Samsung Electronics, Apple, Sun Microsystems, Walt Disney Pictures, and Warner Bros. Entertainment are some of the companies of this association. The name ‘Blue-ray’ is derived from the use of blue laser for read and write operations.
Currently, many people are confused about which format to choose for Blu-ray or HD DVD. In general, most of the public is not aware of the strengths, weaknesses and unique market points of this new technology. If you are one of them, then I am sure this article will help you a lot.
Forget the DVDs or you may be a long way from high-quality audio and video and high-capacity optical disc technology. There are two main reasons for replacing DVDs with BDs. First, the high storage capacity of BD, which is nearly 45-50 GB, is much higher than the capacity of DVD (10 GB). You would compare a calculator to a PC. Both perform the same operations for math and ERA Calculator, but PC can do it much faster than calculators. Similarly, BD and DVD perform the same tasks, but Blu-ray can perform operations in a better way.
The increasing popularity of HDTVs is the second reason. HDTV requires 1080p resolution, but DVD can only provide 480p resolution. So for the best picture quality, you should switch to the latest technology and also have a BD and BD player.
You also don’t have to worry about your huge collection of DVDs as the blue-ray player can also fit your DVDs. This saves you from the headache of translating your DVDs to the BD version.
This technology is emerging in the media industry at a very high level. The filmmakers have adopted this technology and adopted it as the standard technology for production. Some other useful uses of blue-ray are in medical diagnostics, where it is used to get high-definition results and quality for equipment such as Brain Scan. It has also been used in micro projectors and other scanning equipment used in environmental monitoring.
