Ostendo CRVD 43 Inch Large Screen Monitor
November 25, 2009 | Computer, Monitor | Comments OffOstendo have launched a new monitor called CVRD. As the name suggests, the 43 inch screen is curved and due to the extra wide screen, it has an impressive 32:10 aspect ratio. Although the screen size and aspect ratio are quite impressive, it seems to lack in the resolution department by only showing 2880 x 900 pixels. For a 43 “screen I’d expect a much greater resolution.

According to the Ostendo CVRD is the first of it’s kind Although I’m not 100% sure if there is some relationship to the very similar looking NEC 43 “curved monitor we wrote about in June this year. It comes with a hefty price tag of $ 6,000 making it rather expensive for most computer users. Edit: The monitor is the same as the NEC, but Ostendo are attempting to sell it under their own brand now.
The good side of the monitor is how it was designed. The CVRD makes use of Human Visual System that is supposed to give you the vision that your normal peripheral vision gives. An example could be a driving game as pictured below where you can see more of the action around you rather than just the front windshield that you’d see on most monitors. [via gadgetvenue]
