LG Makes 3D Digital Home Splash

By Sindre Lia, Monday 30 August 2010
 
LG showcases a range of "world's first" equipped 3D digital home gear at IFA, ranging from 3D HDTVs to 3D projectors.

At this year's IFA, LG Electronics is showcasing a range of digital home gear, including the company's very latest in NANO FULL LED and Plasma TVs, Home Theater Sytems and Blu-ray Disc players, as well as a complete selection of 3D projectors.

Full LED and Plasma 3D TVs

LG Electronic's top of the range in 3D HDTVs is the LG LEX8, the world's slimmest (0.88cm) and narrowest bezel (1.25cm) Full LED TV. In a world first for the TV industry, the LEX8 adds NANO Lighting Technology to LG's Full LED backlighting to produce pictures that are brighter, clearer and smoother than earlier. Also on show is the new LG LEX9, which boasts the biggest LED LCD screen yet at 72 inches. LG is also showing its LX9500 Full LED 3D TV, which was unveiled at CES 2010. All models come with TruMotion 400Hz, and the LEX8 tops it all with a new Micro Pixel Control for delivering a wider and richer array of colors to produce better 3D pictures.

Alongside a spectacular 180-inch Plasma 3D TV prototype, LG is also displaying the PX950N, its first Plasma 3D TV and the first TV in the world to receive 3D THX Certification. To deliver improved 3D picture, 600Hz Max Sub-field Driving aims to ensure smooth viewing of even the fastest action sequences, while LG's 3D Panel phases out light faster to produce images that are claimed to be practically blur free. The PX950N also supports Multi Picture Format functionality, enabling users to connect their 3D cameras to the TV and view their 3D pictures directly on the big screen.

Along with the Full LED models, the LG PX950N provides seamless connectivity through NetCast, DLNA certification and a wireless AV link. With these functions, viewers will have access to a growing range of 3D movies and shows, whether they're online or stored in home digital libraries.





3D Blu-ray Home Theater Systems

LG's HX995TZ and HLX55W offer a platform for 3D movies and sound, along with the connectivity options of NetCast and DLNA. The HX995TZ is the company's high-end Blu-ray Home Theater System, promising to deliver a truly room-filling sound with 1,100 watts of output. For consumers looking for the 3D Home Theater experience on a slightly smaller scale, LG offers the HX995DF, with 2.1 Ch and 560 watts of output.

LG's HLX55W 3D Blu-ray sound bar is a more compact 3D system. Comprising a stylish single back bar with a vertical Blu-ray Disc player in its center, the HLX55W delivers 3D Blu-ray Disc playback accompanied by 430-watt audio output and 4.1 Ch full surround sound. Rounding out the home theater systems is the new HX900, LG's first Real 3D Sound Home Theater System, which aims to produce a sound as deep and life-like as any 3D image.



3D Blu-ray Disc Players

LG has beefed up its video equipment with three 3D-friendly models, the HR550, the BD590 and the BX580. Along with Blu-ray disc playback, the HR550 comes with built-in DVB-T/C/S tuners that eliminate the need for a digital set-top box. The tuners also make it possible for viewers to record a show or movie on one channel - including in 3D - while simultaneously watching a Blu-ray disc. For people who don't need so much storage space, the BD590 offers all the same functions as the HR550, with the sole exception of built-in HDD. All players support NetCast and DLNA, including the BX580 model.

3D Projectors

The world's first one-body, dual-engine CINEMA 3D projector transmitting Full HD pictures, the LG CF3D can project 2D or 3D picture with a diagonal span that stretches up to 200 inches. It offers TruMotion 100Hz technology and 3D Auto Picture Calibration. The CF3D also comes with six free pairs of glasses.

LG is also showcasing the BX327, a Dynamic 3D-type (DLP Link 3D Technology) 3D Projector with a picture boasting a diagonal span of up to 150 inches. Among projectors using DLP Link 3D Technology, the BX327 is the only one with HDMI, meaning users can enjoy 3D images without 3D-compatible graphic cards. The LG BX327 boasts a brightness of 3,200 ANSI-lumens and a contrast of 0.55" DMD.
