LG 15″ AMOLED screens

Posted by Charbax on 5th September 2009

Super thin, pretty good quality and sharp screens. They probably cost a fortune though at 15″ isn’t very big for a TV.

FaceVsion HD Video Conferencing solution

Posted by Charbax on 5th September 2009

FaceVsion of Taiwan now has added HDMI-input and Full HD 1920×1080 HD video-conferencing in the new FVexpress Pro card, as well as they still have the FVexpress combo with a new higher quality HD webcam included and a mini-PCI module that can be integrated in certain compatible netbooks (when the Express Card slot is not present on the netbooks) to integrate their HD video-conferencing directly into the netbooks.

What this technology from FaceVsion does is that it integrates HD H264 encoding and decoding into their express card device, or into their mini-PCI module, for netbook/laptop manufacturers to integrate or for end-consumers to buy as an express card solution or as a mini-PCI module to install inside of the netbook or laptop.

FaceVsion’s Qulive software automatically adapts the upload and download bitrates to and from each party according to the stable and reliable bandwidth that is available, it also support SIP to SIP connections and even IP to IP direct connections, thus it could be perfectly suitable for implementation at the Enterprise, for large, medium or small businesses. But also, especially, for just $119, this FaceVsion HD video-conferencing solution could easilly reach end consumers in masse if they manage to offer the right combination of product and value proposition.

Imagine sitting in your living room with a HD camcorder or cheaper HD webcam on your HDTV, and the same for your grand parents wherever in the world they live, simply sit back and have a real-time HD quality discussion in each of your sofa’s, the siye of a 42″ HDTV making it look like you are nearly sitting in the same room!

Panasonic press conference

Posted by Charbax on 3rd September 2009

Video from the Panasonic press conference at IFA 2009, where they launch a new compact DSLR camera the Panasonic GF1 as well as they are doing a big deal out of showing 3D Full HD HDTVs for the first time. 3D glasses are required. The producer of James Cameron new HD movie Avatar is on stage explaining the point of 3D movies a bit. Pricing for 3D HDTVs is yet unknown. Panasonic’s 3D Blu-ray players will support outputting 3D HD from 3D Blu-ray movie discs.

I don’t really like 3D glasses, they make a fuzzy image. I wonder if Panasonic has managed to make the image of nicer quality. I’ll post more videos of this and other new Panasonic products later.

You can see a video of Panasonic’s 3D game on XboX360 3D Avatar game in this video: http://youtube.com/watch?v=qPSw3B08kc0
