Electronics makers are promoting their 4K, or ultra-high-definition, display technology in a big way at Japan's biggest electronics fair with the aim of stimulating some demand.

For the last few years, Panasonic Corp. strongly pushed home energy management systems and related home appliances at the CEATEC Japan trade show in Chiba, but its booth this time around is all about 4K — and nothing else.

With products ranging from 4K TVs and tablet computers to cameras that can shoot 4K images, the booth has been crowded with visitors.
