720x1.78=1280. 1080*1.78=1920 2160*1.78 = 3840. Thats 4k as in about 4000 pixels vertically
It represents the aspect ratio of 16:9 For example a TV standard with 100 pixels would be 100x178.
And a TV 8k standard will be 4320*1.78 unless TV manufacturers decide for a new aspect ratio like 2:1 instead of 16:9 in the future. There is other technical reasoning behind those numbers. Its probably a mix of old conventions and technicalites that formed the exact number of pixels. |
so those conventions are the reason why they don'tdo
1000*1.78
2000*1.78
4000*1.78

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.
