LG has showcased six display innovations at CES 2021, including a 55-inch transparent OLED Smart Bed. It is an OLED screen with adjustable height that can be placed at the foot of a bed. LG says the screen can achieve up to 40 percent transparency and you can see through it even when it is displaying an image. Besides that, LG also introduced a 55-inch display that can be used in restaurants (and double up as a barrier in these COVID times), and an 88-inch 8K Cinematic Sound OLED display, among a few other things.
LG showcased the new displays at the virtual CES 2021 that is on till 14 January.
Transparent OLED Smart Bed
Apart from being a transparent display of adjustable height that can be placed at the foot of the bed, the 55-inch OLED Smart Bed can also analyse your sleep patterns and act like an alarm clock. It also comes with built-in speakers.
Rail & Pivot OLED
LG has also introduced a 55-inch Rail & Pivot OLED, as reported by Android Authority. The display rests on a rail system and can slide itself out from a ‘hidden’ position to multiple angles. While showcasing the display, LG reportedly showed it hidden behind a wall and then sliding out when required. The display, which has pivoting capabilities, is introduced to be used for video-based exercises.
Transparent OLED
This 55-inch transparent OLED display by LG is designed to be used for public utility. It was shown being used on a subway, displaying information about routes along with the time and weather. It is aimed at letting commuters enjoy an uninterrupted view of a city while receiving information from the screen.
48-inch Bendable Cinematic Sound OLED (CSO) Gaming TV
This display by LG, as revealed just before CES 2021, has a paper-thin screen that bends and unfolds with a curvature radius of up to 1,000R. The bendable OLED display comes with cinematic sound OLED (CSO) technology.
55-inch Transparent OLED and 23.1-inch in-Touch displays
LG also showed a demo in which customers were seen sitting in a restaurant in front of a 55-inch transparent LED that displayed the menu as well as things like a sports game. The idea is that customers would be able to talk to people, such as the chef, through the display.
