LG unveils world's first full LED 3D TV
LG Electronics (LG), a global leader and technology innovator in the flat panel display and audio-
video devices market, announced today the launch of the LX9500, the world's first Full LED 3D TV.
Delivering a picture of outstanding clarity and brightness on LG's innovative INFINIA design, the
LX9500 - a two-time award winner at this year's CES and a winner of the reddot design award 2010 -
invites viewers into an entirely new world of 3D TV viewing.
For the ultimate in 3D home viewing, the LX9500 employs shutter glasses-type technology, with
glasses that add depth to an image by blocking one lens then the other in sync with the screen's
refresh rate. The LX9500 is also the only 3D TV with dual IR-emitting sensors, which send signals
syncing the lenses with the TV. Having dual sensors ensures a wider and longer viewing angle for the
TV's 3D pictures, creating a spectacular home theater experience for the whole family.
As the world's first Full LED 3D TV, the LX9500 uses an innovative backlight structure to deliver its
remarkable picture. Illuminated by panels of LEDs directly behind the screen, the Full LED display
provides images of exceptional brightness and clarity, as well as a localized Spot Control for the
ultimate in picture quality. With TruMotion 400Hz reducing image cross-talk and a picture further
enriched by a 10,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, the LX9500's mesmerizing 3D transports viewers
right to the heart of the action.
As with all its features, the LX9500's award-winning INFINIA design is geared toward creating the
ultimate 3D experience. Slim and sleek, the LX9500 boasts a depth of just 22.3mm, and a 16mm
super-narrow bezel that allows for a more expansive picture and 3D images that practically burst out
of the screen. In recognition of its unparalleled design, the LX9500 this year won a reddot design
award, one of the world's top three design awards and a globally accepted standard for the very best
in product design.
"Thanks to its superb picture quality, the LX9500 offers a 3D experience like no other, where
instead of just watching scenes, you can actually be part of them," said Mr H.S Paik, President of
LG Electronics Gulf FZE. "Through advanced features such as Full LED and INFINIA design, LG is
already pushing the technological boundaries for 3D. Along with our 3D Blu-ray disk player and 3D
home projector, LG is well placed to become a true global leader in 3D home entertainment."
Speaking from the launch of LG's LX9500 at the Westin Hotel Dubai, event speaker and
President of the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) Dubai, Dr. Mustafa AG Abushagur, PhD
added; "Technology is moving at a faster pace now than it ever has and 3D is transforming the digital
entertainment and education landscape.
"This new technology is creating visual experiences that offer new opportunities and challenges for
educators, manufacturers and consumers alike. With its tendency towards early-adoption of new
technology, the Middle East is on the cusp of widespread changes in technological development."
Delivering unbeatable levels of entertainment, the LX9500 also displays regular programming and
content in the very best, high-definition 2D. In addition, the TV is seamlessly connected to home AV
devices thanks to a Wireless AV Link, while its NetCastTM function delivers instant streaming, via a
broadband connection, of virtually limitless online content, including videos, movies and web albums.
In another first for the industry, the LX9500 supports the Multi Picture Format (MPF) which enables
user-created 3D content to be enjoyed on-screen without the need of a PC.
