O’Brien’s keynote illustrated technology’s important role in the evolution of entertainment and culminated with the presentation of LG’s latest technological breakthrough, the LG THRILL™ 4G exclusively on AT&T.
From early forms of entertainment such as black and white TV to the growing popularity of smartphones as today’s hot entertainment platform, O’Brien stressed the importance of the need for continued advancements in technology. LG Mobile will lead the way, contributing to 3D technology adoption with the barrier breaking LG THRILL 4G.
“The objective of the entertainment industry has always been to make the experience more real and life-like,” said O’Brien. “LG will change the game again by giving everyone an easy and accessible way to interact with the content they love – and do it in a more realistic and authentic manner than any 3D experience we’ve seen yet.”
Continuing the trend of technology pushing the boundaries of entertainment, LG Mobile is focusing on addressing the three main barriers to the mass adoption of 3D technology: accessibility, technology and content.

In January of 2012, the Energy Independence and Security Act will require general-purpose bulbs to be at least 25% more efficient than standard incandescent lighting options. Recognizing this government issued need in the market, VIZIO, the #1 shipper of LED backlit televisions, will lead the lighting revolution by offering new, high performance and energy saving options to consumers. According to Frost & Sullivan's World LED Lighting Markets Report, the LED lighting market is set to see double digit growth in the next ten years (2). The general expectation is that World Wide LED lighting will have a majority share in the lighting market by 2020.
The company's eco-friendly line of High Efficiency LED bulbs are recyclable, do not contain mercury and boasts a glass-free design to prohibit shattering. With the longest lifespan of any source, including incandescent and CFL, VIZIO's LED light bulbs last up to twenty-five times longer than incandescent bulbs. While LED light bulbs are known to be efficient, long lasting, cooler running, silent and do not emit UV rays, VIZIO's new High Efficiency LED lighting line will boast additional benefits. The High Efficiency LED give off a warmer hue of light, reminiscent of a natural source, compared to many other LED options. Additionally, VIZIO High Efficiency LED lighting has tripled the lifespan of CFL bulbs, with up to 25,000 usage hours.
VIZIO High Efficiency LED Lighting Product Collection
VIZIO's partners in the LED lighting space include Epistar and Seoul Semiconductor, two of the world's top 10 suppliers of LED lighting. "This is a natural progression for VIZIO beyond consumer electronics. We look forward to VIZIO applying its innovation, marketing and distribution channels to save American consumers even more with its new line of LED lighting," said Donald Leo, Vice President, of SEOUL SEMICONDUCTOR." They are looking forward to VIZIO's entrance into the market with their soon-to-launch High Efficiency LED light bulbs.
"VIZIO'S expansion into the LED Lighting market stands to challenge the convention in the same way that it has had in the flat panel television market," said Dr. B.J. Lee, Chairman of Epistar. "VIZIO's experience in delivering quality products at an exceptional value, combined with the company's commitment to searching for the eco-friendly solutions presents an unprecedented challenge to the entire industry."
As North America's largest shipper of LED backlit HDTVs VIZIO noticed a 2000% growth in total shipments year over year, with over 2,000,000 units shipped in 2010. This shift to LED technology has significantly reduced power consumption, proving that LEDs are not just environmentally friendly but wallet friendly as well. From 2009 - 2010 alone, VIZIO's contribution to energy savings (based on power consumption of 2009 vs. 2010 VIZIO HDTV models at an estimated savings of 280,000 MWh/year (3)) could be viewed as equivalent to the energy needed to power the city of Las Vegas for more than a year(3). That estimated energy savings could also be translated into approximately $31,023,300 (4) in power bills for consumers, or potentially enough money to power approximately 22,000 homes for a year (5).
"Since entering the HDTV market, VIZIO has offered consumers high quality technologies at affordable prices," said Ken Lowe. "Our entrance into the LED lighting sector is no different. With the current market transitioning away from incandescent bulbs, there is a need for more energy efficient options. As the leading shipper of LED backlit HDTVs in America, we see it as our responsibility to innovate an entirely new market, benefiting both our consumers and the environment."
According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, the residential sector general service light (A19 type) bulb purchase rate of LED will increase approximately 300% between 2010 to 2015 to 100 million units. VIZIO is a forerunner of the movement in this industry, having reduced their carbon footprint from 2009-2010, with significant energy savings by its products, and effectively continuing these efforts for 2011.
"VIZIO has a great track record of producing energy efficient TVs at market leading prices," said Noah Horowitz, Senior Scientist at the Natural Resources Defense Council. "As many of their TVs are already using LEDs to achieve energy savings, it's a logical extension for VIZIO to enter the LED light bulb market. We hope VIZIO's entrance to this market serves as a catalyst to increase the availability of high performing LEDs at attractive price points."

The viewfinder has an eye detector. Note the 3" screen can't swivel.
The Sony SLT-A35 comes with a backlit CMOS sensor we already know and love ! The 16 megapixels Exmor HD sensor of the A35 is the one used in the Alpha 580, the Nikon D7000, the Pentax K-5... We like this sensor for its clean signal to noise ratio in the highest ISO settings as well as for its huge dynamic range which surpasses its competitors over 2EV with a total of 13.8 EV. In additin to 2D and 3D swipe panoramas, the sensor can alos capture Auto HDR images as well as Full HD movies with stereo sound built-in.
The Sony SLT-A35 offers integrated CCD-shift image stabilization.
Light, compact and easy to use, the new a35 (SLT-A35) by Sony brings pro-style shooting speeds and generous creative options to photographers of all abilities.
As introduced on the acclaimed a33 and a55, Translucent Mirror Technology by Sony allows high-speed shooting with responsive, accurate continuous autofocus - whether you’re shooting stills or Full HD movies.
Making its debut on the Alpha 35, Tele-zoom High Speed Shooting magnifies a central portion of the image area to give an effective approximately 1.4x magnification while you shoot at up to 7 fps. Providing continuous tracking autofocus of still or moving objects, it’s ideal for capturing fast-moving sports, children’s faces or distant subjects with a high-speed burst of frames. There’s also a rapid 5.5 fps drive mode that offers full-resolution continuous shooting with tracking AF.
With a resolution of 16.2 effective megapixels, the newly-developed Exmor™ APS HD CMOS sensor delivers stunningly detailed, low-noise still and HD video images. Complementing the sensor’s extremely high resolution and sensitivity, the powerful BIONZ processor cleans and optimises image data to assure flawless images with rich, natural colour reproduction. With a maximum sensitivity of ISO 12800, it’s possible to capture beautifully natural still images and HD video in low light where other cameras struggle.
Advanced Quick AF Live View continuously displays a real-time output from the main image sensor during still- or Full HD video shooting. Light is partially directed from the translucent mirror to an AF sensor to permit non-stop precision TTL phase-detection autofocus – a benefit that’s not possible with traditional DSLR cameras.
Whether you’re shooting stills or AVCHD video, you’ll enjoy a superbly detailed view on the high-quality Xtra Fine LCD. TruBlack technology assures high-contrast images with rich, deep blacks – even if you’re shooting outside.
The high-resolution Tru-Finder offers a precision alternative to framing shots on the camera’s LCD. Offering an extremely detailed, high contrast image with full 100% field coverage, it’s ideal for live preview of picture effects and exposure adjustments. Accurate composition of landscapes, architecture and other scenes is enhanced by switchable grid lines.
Aside from its powerful imaging possibilities, the A35 is refreshingly accessible, even for photographers stepping up to their first interchangeable lens camera. The on-screen Help Guide gives a clear explanation of selected functions and how they’re used.
More advanced photographers, meanwhile, will welcome the top panel-mounted customisable button that allows instant recall of any of 14 frequently-used functions.
The a35 offers a new in-camera ‘Picture Effect’ setting that lets users add extra impact to stills or HD video during shooting, without the worry of editing images afterwards. Effects can be previewed on the camera screen, allowing photographers to see the result of a chosen effect instantly rather than post-shooting. The inspiring palette of artistic treatments includes Retro Photo, High-key, Toy Camera and Posterisation.
It’s also easy to produce dramatic Partial Colour effects, with a single colour picked out against the rest of the image in monochrome. This popular effect normally takes a series of painstaking steps to achieve with photo editing software: with the a35 it’s both automatic and instant.
Refinements in power consumption now boost the camera’s shooting stamina to a generous 440 still shots (approx. when using the rear LCD panel) between battery charges – that’s a 30% increase over its predecessor. The a35 is compatible with the full range of 32 A-mount interchangeable lenses from Sony that includes six Carl Zeiss lenses.
