Fifth in Air Conditioning Webisode Series Explains ‘Inverter Technology’
Panasonics revolutionary ‘Inverter Technology’, which is present in all Panasonic air conditioner models, significantly reduces electricity bills while also helping to maintain a constant temperature in your home throughout the day. The Inverter technology helps the air conditioning unit reach the desired temperature faster than other units, and is constantly on to decrease energy wastage.

The next in the series of webisodes will focus on ‘Installation’
In the first of our series on ‘Demystifying 3D’ we look at the some of the basics of 3D and how it works.
Why do we see in 3D?
Let’s go back to basics for a second. When we watch TV on a regular 2D screen the image appears flat, this is because it’s filmed with one camera and one lens, so it’s like watching the world with one eye shut. However the fact that we have two eyes allows us to see the world in 3D, this is due to an effect called ‘stereopsis’, which gives us ‘stereoscopic’ vision. ‘Stereoscopic’ vision gives us the ability to see depth – basically, each of your eyes sees a slightly different image of the same scene. Your brain analyzes and processes the differences between the two images to reconstruct spatial conditions, enabling you to see things with three-dimensional depth.
To explain this effect here is the Colin Harm, Panasonic Australia, Training Manager
You can try this excercise on yourself and see the effect for yourself, just follow these instructions:
Place your finger just a few centimetres in front of your eyes and shut your left and right eye alternately. You’ll see the object changes (or rather, the finger moves).
Now try it with the arm fully extended. Again the object changes, but not quite as much. If you look at the same finger, say 20 metres away, it will hardly change or move. To put it simply, it’s the combined work of both the left and right eye which allows us to see two images as one and therefore to see life in 3D.
As you can see from the experiment the closer the object is to the eyes the greater the distance between the left and right eye the greater the 3D effect appears.
This is the first in our ‘Demystifying’ 3D series, the next installment will focus on 3D facts.
We’re delighted to announce the start of the ‘Shoot Share & Win’ competition on our official Panasonic Facebook page here. We’re giving twenty lucky winners the opportunity to win one of twenty TA1 Full HD Mobile Cameras, and then three more lucky winners the chance to win a Nintendo Wii Pack.
We know it can be difficult choosing an Air Conditioning unit, especially with summer just around the corner, that’s why we’re pleased to announce our clever new ‘Air Conditioning Sizing’ iPhone application. The application removes the headache of shopping around for the right air conditioning unit, by providing quick, accurate and easy product recommendations based on a few small bits of information.
Here at Panasonic we are running a worldwide initiative called ‘Earth Lunch Hour’, the idea being to convince as many people as we can around the globe to have the most eco friendly lunchbreak possible. As part of the ocasion we will be running the ‘Eco Cook Fest 24′ where we spend 24 hours making, tasting, being surprised by, and enjoying amazing ingredients and recipes from around the world.
