We used to call it “the box”. But already this century, television has been transformed, becoming ever thinner, smarter and sharper — no longer a box. And after the flat-screen and high-definition revolutions of the last decade, prepare for more change. In Japan, they have been working for years on Super Hi Vision. It gives you a picture 16 times sharper than HD and the technology, already tested by the BBC, will be on display at the Olympics next year on giant indoor screens. But getting Super Hi Vision into the home will take time and you may need to set aside a whole wall of the living room. Manufacturers in Japan are working on 85-inch screens, but don’t expect them to be on sale before 2020.
