Matsushita said on Monday it hoped to start selling the world’s largest plasma television by early next year.
Measuring 2.4 metres by 1.4 meters and weighing 215 kg, the 103-inch panel is bigger than a double-sized mattress and almost as heavy as an upright piano.
They are yet to set the price, but their current 65-inch plasma TVs, their largest available now, sell for about $7,500 in Japan.
The plasma panel used in the Matsushita TV will be just one-inch larger measured diagonally than a 102-inch model developed by Samsung, who have not yet launched the model commercially.
