LG Adds Innovative Touch To Home Entertainment

Published Aug 17, 2011

LG Electronics (LG) has taken a big step forward in interactive entertainment with its new Pentouch TV, an innovative plasma set that offers all the advantages of PCs and the internet, while letting viewers control content directly on the screen using a special pen. By incorporating LG’s Plasma Display Panel’s (PDP) cells, the Pentouch TV also offers a more sophisticated slim design at a lower price than conventional units.

“Touch displays have become the norm in phones and tablets, but remain almost unheard of in TVs,” said Mr. H.S. Paik, President of LG Electronics, Gulf FZE. “The Pentouch TV brings all the excitement of touch displays, computers and the internet to the world of TV, with functions and programs that are great fun and educational. Families, in particular, will have more than ever to enjoy on our Pentouch TV sets.”

Users can activate the Pentouch mode with a single click on the remote control, while the interface itself is intuitive and easy to navigate. In Pentouch mode, users can access files (such as PowerPoint presentations) and any other content from their PC, and work on them, edit them or move them around the screen with the greatest of ease. The TV supports simultaneous two-pen use, and pen batteries can be recharged through USB ports on the back of the TV unit.

Using the TV’s excellent suite of software, budding artists can draw pictures directly onto the screen and then save the files for further editing or effects manipulation. If the PC is connected to a printer, users can print their Pentouch creations, too. More complex software features include Gallery, which comes with a built-in slide show feature, Family Calendar and Digital Photo Frame, which lets users embellish their work with the frame of their choice.

The Pentouch TV uses a protective scratch-free glass screen, as well as RGB expression and optimized brightness for crisper images. Visual comfort is further enhanced via the auto sharpness control function and color materialization technology.

In balance with the unit’s stylish Razor Frame design, the Pentouch TV uses an eye-catching four-leg stand that has been specially designed to ensure the TV doesn’t tip over when owners or their children are using the Pentouch feature. This means the TV is both great fun to use, and safe as well.

The LG Pentouch TV will be launched in the UAE by September. The premium model, the PZ850, will also include LG’s superb 3D THX feature.
