LG Electronics (LG) has taken a big step forward in
interactive entertainment with the launch of its new Plasma Pentouch TV.
The innovative plasma TV set offers all the advantages of a
PC with internet access, while letting viewers control content
directly on the screen using a special pen. By incorporating LG’s Plasma
Display Panel’s (PDP) cells, the Plasma Pentouch TV offers a more sophisticated
slim design at a lower price than conventional units.
“Touch displays have become the norm in phones and tablets,
but remain almost unheard of in TVs,” says JM Lee, CEO of LG Electronics South
Africa. “The Plasma Pentouch TV brings all the excitement of a touch
display, a computer and the internet to the world of TVs, with functions and
programs that are great fun and educational. Families, in particular, will more
than ever enjoy our Plasma Pentouch TV sets.”
Users can activate the Pentouch mode with a single click on
the remote control, while the interface itself is intuitive and easy to
navigate. In Pentouch mode, users can access files, such as PowerPoint and
other content from their PC, working on and editing them on the TV screen with
the greatest of ease. The TV supports simultaneous two-pen use.
The pen batteries can be recharged through USB ports on the
back of the TV unit, ensuring users have functional pens all the time.
Using the TV’s suite of software, budding artists can draw
pictures directly onto the screen and then save the files for further editing
or effects manipulation. If the PC is connected to a printer, users can
print their Pentouch creations, too. More complex software features
include Gallery, which comes with a built-in slide show feature,
Family Calendar and Digital Photo Frame, which lets users embellish their
work with the frame of their choice. The Plasma Pentouch TV is connected
to the internet, allowing for further applications to be downloaded as desired.
The Plasma Pentouch TV uses a protective scratch-free glass
screen, as well as RGB expression and optimised brightness for crisper images.
Visual comfort is further enhanced by the auto sharpness control function and
color materialisation technology.
In balance with the unit’s stylish TruSlim Frame design, the
Pentouch TV uses an eye-catching four-leg stand that has been specially designed
to ensure stability so that the TV doesn’t tip over when owners or their
children are using the Pentouch feature. This means the TV is both great fun to
use, and safe as well.
The premium model, the PZ850, will also include LG’s superb
3D THX feature, a single standard measurement of 3D picture quality.
