Problem solver concept: the 16943 television
Sure, television is going digital eventually, but that doesn’t mean that all content will be in the 16:9 aspect ratio. If you have a 16:9 television, you’ve surely noticed pillar bars on 4:3 content. If you’ve got a 4:3 television, you’ve probably noticed letterboxing of movies and some newer television programs. Sure, you could zoom or stretch the image, but then everyone looks strange and out or proportion on your television.
Studio FRST has an interesting take on the whole thing called 16943. Maybe the current design for televisions is broken. Take a look at this asymmetrical design. When either 4:3 or 16:9 content is on this screen, you will not notice bars on each side of the screen. You’ll only have a bar on one side of the screen.
