(CES 2024) “Innovation that changes everyday life beyond the viewing experience” Samsung Electronics presents the next-generation screen experience – Samsung Newsroom Korea
The future of screen experiences envisioned by Samsung Electronics was largely unveiled at CES 2024 held in Las Vegas, USA. Samsung Electronics attracted visitors from around the world with high-quality displays and diverse innovative experiences in the ‘Screen Experience’ zone within the exhibition hall. As befits a company that has maintained its No. 1 position in the global TV market for 18 years, the newsroom visited the CES 2024 Samsung Screen Experience Zone, which showed the essence of next-generation screen technology.
“To what level do screens equipped with AI become smarter?” Neo QLED 8K
Samsung Electronics announced a new leap forward with AI screens at this CES. In the 2024 Neo QLED 8K experience space, we were able to see all the high-quality viewing experiences that the AI processor and technology installed in the product will provide to consumers.
The new Neo QLED 8K is equipped with the 3rd generation AI processor 'NQ8 AI Gen3 Processor', which supports an AI neural network that is 8 times improved compared to the existing one and a 2 times faster NPU (Neural Processing Unit). Based on this, the main advantage is that consumers can always enjoy the best 8K viewing experience through the '8K AI Upscaling Pro' function, which clearly changes low-quality content to 8K resolution.
On this day, the 'AI Motion Enhancer Pro' and 'Active Voice Amplifier Pro' functions, which are key features that complete an innovative viewing experience, were also introduced. AI Motion Enhancer Pro is a function that improves clarity through a motion detection algorithm, and is especially useful when watching dynamic sports games as it clearly displays detailed movements on TV without missing them. In addition, by using the Active Voice Amplifier Pro function, which separates sounds based on AI, consumers can enjoy a customized sound experience as they wish. When watching a drama or movie, human voices are emphasized instead of outside noise in the scene, allowing you to become more immersed in the characters' conversations.
In addition, the 2024 Neo QLED 8K is equipped with Tizen, Samsung's open source operating system (OS), helping you live a smarter daily life. In particular, the Samsung Daily+ function provides a customized content experience by seamlessly connecting various devices, including TVs and Galaxy smartphones, as well as watches and Buds. A representative example is the Galaxy Watch's exercise data displayed on the TV home training screen, allowing you to enjoy exercise without distracting your attention, and remote pet treatment through video calls by linking your smartphone to the TV.
The ‘Infinity Air Design’ of the Neo QLED 8K QN900D model, which realizes a thin thickness that harmonizes with any space*, also attracted attention. It is mounted on the 'Infinity Air Stand' to create an effect as if the screen is floating in the air, and at the same time, the clutter-free design creates an environment where you can focus only on watching.
“No matter what size you need, it’s possible” Micro LED
This time, it is time to meet Micro LED, which is considered the best display. This place, where 'transparent micro LED', which has no boundary between reality and display, was exhibited for the first time along with a new model of micro LED, was crowded with many visitors.
Upon entering the micro LED experience space, the clear picture quality on the 140-inch ultra-large screen overwhelmingly caught my attention. Micro LED can be made in various sizes according to consumer needs because there are no restrictions on size, resolution, and ratio, and there are no bezels between modules. The range of choices for consumers who want an immersive viewing experience at home has been expanded.
Micro LED technology, which can be said to be the ultimate in sophistication, embodies Samsung Electronics' 'craftsmanship'. The 'Craftmanships Wall' symbolically expresses the production process of micro LED, which introduces Samsung's first development technology and goes through an innovative process.
‘Transparent Micro LED’, which incorporates new technology, was also unveiled for the first time in the world. Many people were curiously looking at the high transmittance and clarity that made it difficult to distinguish between actual glass and the screen.
“I will do all the annoying or cumbersome work~” AI companion butler ‘Ballie’
A cute spherical object freely moving around in one corner of the Screen Experience Zone. The main character is the AI companion ‘Ballie’.
Bolly, which runs autonomously, is a reliable ‘butler’ that follows the user anywhere in the house when called and solves annoying or inconvenient problems in daily life. With Bolly, you can easily make and receive calls without touching the phone, and you can check for guests ringing the doorbell outside without having to go near the front door.
After watching Boli's various demonstrations, visitors expressed their interest in Boli with exclamations of exclamation. Bolly evolves as it learns the user's lifestyle the more it is used. Daily life with him is expected to provide new convenience that has never been seen before.
“I am the center of the smart home~” Tizen OS Home
Samsung TV's Tizen OS home function, which provides a variety of information on a large screen in the center of the living room, has been further strengthened. We also looked at the convenient multi-device daily life centered around TV suggested by Samsung.
Samsung Daily Board(One)You can quickly check the status of your home even when you are not watching TV. This is because when movement is detected near the TV, the Samsung Daily Board widget automatically appears, and by clicking on the widget, you can see everything from a summary of your home status to energy usage and a preview of the SmartThings home camera. By using the quick panel by pressing the 'hot key' on the 24-year-old TV remote control, you can perform desired home management functions without interruption even while watching TV.
“I can’t take my eyes off it~” A feast of innovation that captures the attention of visitors
In addition, 'The Premiere 8K' supports the world's first 8K wireless connection and can project up to 150 inches, 'Music Frame', a framed speaker that goes well with any interior, and PDP (Performance Designed Products LLC) Samsung Electronics' unique innovative technologies, including the dedicated controller for the game streaming platform 'Samsung Gaming Hub' created through partnership, were gathered in the experience zone on this day to provide many things to see.
