It is used for multiple anamorphic formats and DCI 1024:429 (21. 482517:9), but also for ultrawide computer monitors, including 43:18 (21 1 ⁄ 2:9) for resolutions based on 720 lines and 12:5 (21 3 ⁄ 5:9) for ultrawide variants of resolutions based either on 960 pixels width or 900 lines height.
On June 5, 2015, Chinese manufacturer BOE showed a 10K display with an aspect ratio of 64:27 (≈21:9) and a resolution of 10240 × 4320. [1]In November 2016, the Consumer Technology Association published CTA-861-G, an update to their standard for digital video transmission formats.
There are other, non-standard display resolutions with 1080 lines whose aspect ratios fall between the usual 16∶9 and the ultra-wide 64∶27, e.g. 18∶9, 18.5∶9, 19∶9 and 19.5∶9. They are mostly used in smartphones or phablets and do not have established names, but may be subsumed under the umbrella term ultra-wide (full) HD.
Ultra High-Definition, or Quad Full High-Definition Four times the resolution of 1080p. Requires a dual-link DVI, category 2 (high-speed) HDMI, DisplayPort or a single Thunderbolt link, and a reduced scan rate (up to 30 Hz); a DisplayPort 1.2 connection can support this resolution at 60 Hz, or 30 Hz in stereoscopic 3D. 3840×2160 (8,294k) 3840 2160
The pixel density of 960H is identical to standard D1 resolution so it does not give any improvement in image quality, merely a wider aspect ratio. Alternative analog video transport technologies carrying higher resolutions than 960H include HD-TVI, HDCVI, and AHD.
"21:9" ("twenty-one by nine" or "twenty-one to nine") is a consumer electronics (CE) marketing term to describe the ultrawide aspect ratio of 64:27 (2. 370:1 or 21. 3:9), designed to show films recorded in CinemaScope and equivalent modern anamorphic formats.
As of 2016, most computer monitors use widescreen displays with an aspect ratio of 16:9, [5] although some portable PCs use narrower aspect ratios like 3:2 and 16:10 [6] while some high-end desktop monitors have adopted ultrawide displays. [7] The following table summarises the different aspect ratios that have been used in computer displays:
Anamorphic 70 mm – 70 mm with anamorphic lenses, popularly known as "Ultra Panavision" or "MGM Camera 65", creates an even wider high-quality picture. This camera process was used for the remake of Ben-Hur (1959), resulting in an aspect ratio of 2.76:1, one of the widest projected images ever used for a feature film.
