TV with arms? BeoVision 9 ushers next-gen TV
A TV with its own robot?' While the concept might be a bit Blade Runner-esque, Bang & Olufsen says the technology will ensure rich and natural colors throughout the lifespan of their plasma screens.
The audio and video equipment manufacturer recently launched the sleek, 50-inch BeoVision 9 plasma TV.' The device boasts of an Automatic Colour Management technology that adjusts the color temperature of the plasma screen to compensate for the tendency of TVs to feature a yellowish tinge in the picture after hundreds of hours of use.
Here is where the robot comes in.' When a user activates the Automatic Color Management technology, a short robotic arm with a camera swings down from the upper portion of the screen.' The camera films a test picture on the screen, analyzes the light and dark areas, then adjusts the color balance to correct coloring errors caused by aging.' The feature automatically activates every 120 hours of use but can also be manually activated.
Aside from that, the device also automatically adjusts the brightness of its image according to the ambient light of its location.' The product ships with a built-in center channel speaker with acoustic lens and digital surround sound capabilities.' The price, at $19,900, is a bit steep –- if only it restocks its own beer, perhaps couch potatoes won’t mind.
