SEOUL, Dec. 29, 2011 -– LG Electronics (LG) will unveil the world’s largest 3D Ultra Definition (UD) TV at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas. By combining LG’s industry-leading 3D technology and Smart TV function with UD display technology, the 84-inch TV breaks new ground in immersive 3D home entertainment.


“LG is pushing the limits of home entertainment innovation with this 3D UD TV,” said Havis Kwon, President and CEO of LG Electronics Home Entertainment Company. “We are bringing together all our Smart TV and 3D knowledge in the 3D UD TV in order to demonstrate to the CES audience that LG is committed to being the world’s leading brand for immersive home entertainment in 2012 and beyond.”


LG’s 3D UD TV boasts superb picture quality with 8 million pixels, four times the resolution clarity (3840x2160) of existing Full HD TV panels. Combined with LG’s Slim and Narrow Bezel Design, the 3D UD TV provides the most convincing 3D viewing experience currently available outside of a movie theater. What’s more, 3D Depth Control allows users to customize their viewing experience by controlling the 3D effect while 3D Sound Zooming provides users with 3D sound that rivals the output of all but the best home theater systems.


Via the superior display panel, users can access LG’s Smart TV ecosystem, which comprises over 1,200 apps and gives users access to a growing range of premium content services such as the 3D Zone where viewers can select from a wealth of 3D movies. The imbedded 2D to 3D conversion engine expands the availability of 3D content to limitless levels. Users can easily browse and navigate the Smart TV ecosystem using LG’s new, ergonomically-designed Magic Remote which now recognizes four different types of command input: Voice Recognition, Wheel, Magic Gesture and Point.

I wonder what connection you use for 4k resolution. Display Port?

I don't understand the obsession for 2k and 4k displays. Rather than that I would prefer new 50 or 60 fps video content.

I get 60 fps video content in my games already. But being able to play on a 55 inch screen with almost the same pixel density as my current monitor! Just imagine it wall mounted behind a desk, with you sitting 2-3 ft in front with almost your whole field of vision taken up, yet the definition is perfect. It's like eyefinity or nvidia surround done right.

I also have a HTC Rezound phone which packs 1280x720 pixels into 4.3 inches, and it's really quite spectacular to have that high of a PPI, and getting that in a 24 or 27 inch monitor would be fantastic. But then that's not until 8k resolution comes around. Oh and with 4k they are naming it off the X length not the Y. 4k refers to it being 3840x2160. So a 2k display is actually just 1080p. Not sure why they don't say 2160p instead of 4k, some marketing idea I guess.
