Get ready for CES 2024 in Las Vegas, where companies are unveiling exciting new products ahead of the event. One standout trend this year is the integration of advanced AI processing in TVs, adding a futuristic touch to our home entertainment experience.
Leading the charge is LG, introducing its 2024 lineup of OLED TVs, including models like the LG Signature OLED M4 and LG OLED G4. What sets these TVs apart is the inclusion of the Alpha 11 AI processor. This intelligent processor works in real-time to enhance both the visual and audio performance of your TV, with a particular focus on gaming.
The Alpha 11 does some impressive work by upscaling motion images to eliminate blur, resulting in a significantly clearer overall picture. LG claims that this compact processor boosts graphic performance by 70% and processing speed by 30%, offering a smoother and faster experience.
But it doesn’t stop there – the AI processor takes a dive into color refinement. By analyzing frequently used shades, it enhances colors to match the mood and emotional elements intended by filmmakers and content creators.
On the audio front, LG’s resident AI Sound Pro delivers a richer and fuller audio experience. It separates vocals from background audio, making dialogue clearer, and directs sounds to create an immersive feeling as if they’re coming from the center of the screen.
Meanwhile, Roku is not to be outdone, unveiling its AI-powered Roku Pro TVs ahead of CES. These TVs utilize Mini LEDs for local dimming, allowing for more precise adjustments to the image. Different sections of the TV display can be dimmed or brightened, enhancing the viewing experience.
Similar to LG’s OLEDs, Roku’s new TVs harness the power of AI to automatically adjust settings based on what you’re watching. Say goodbye to the hassle of manually scrolling through a ton of options when switching between sports and narrative TV.
As we marvel at these advancements, there’s a subtle plea for AI to be intuitive enough to disable smooth motion when a movie is playing. Fingers crossed for a future where technology seamlessly complements our entertainment choices!
