LG’s stylish New 3D Glasses For 2012


LG’s stylish New 3D Glasses For 2012

Havis Kwon, President and CEO of the LG Home Entertainment Company said "Compared to active shutter glasses, LG’s 3D glasses are far more comfortable to wear and much more affordable, making it possible for large groups and entire families to watch 3D programs and movies together."

Like what he said, the new 3D glasses that LG made this year -the F310, the clip-on F320 and the Alain Mikli F360 - are lighter and more comfortable to wear while upgraded design features such as curved lenses and clean frame structure have transitioned 3D glasses from burdensome requirements to stylish fashion accessories.
 The F310 has a distinctive design that combines soft lines within a slim frame. Unlike many previous 3D glasses, the lenses have been curved to better accommodate the shape of the wearer’s face, as well as to improve the overall CINEMA 3D viewing experience. The F310 weighs a mere 13.5 grams, making it 20 percent lighter than LG’s previous design.

Another new item for 2012 is the clip-on F320. Compared to the previous generation clip-on 3D glasses, the F320 weighs 25 percent less at 5.5 grams.

The F360 is developed in collaboration with renowned sunglasses designer Alain Mikli. It’s design is sportier and weighs only 16 grams. The lenses of the F360 have been curved and cover most of the wearer’s face, deepening the immersive CINEMA 3D experience. The F360 can also worn in theaters showing 3D movies since both CINEMA 3D and theaters utilize the same FPR and RealD technologies.

LG OLED TV's Magic Remote

The smart TV trend has been brewing for years already at CES, and 2012 saw a number of companies including LG, Samsung, Panasonic, Sony, and others beef up their efforts in the realm of internet-connected televisions. LG took a few different approaches to enhancing its smart TV lineup, including launching a line of Google TVs as well as making improvements to its line of devices running LG's own Smart TV platform.

One of the notable improvements to its connected TV platform included a handful of new features for the Magic Remote, the handheld control unit shipping with all of LG's 2012 line of Smart TVs. In the new iteration of the remote we have voice control for performing various functions including surfing the web, a new rollerball for easier scrolling through menus and interfaces, a dedicated 3D button that will instantly upconvert 2D content to three-dimensional viewing with one touch, and "magic gesture" support: via an embedded camera in the TV itself, LG's Smart TV's will support physical gestures with the remote.

I found a demo of some of the new features in the LG Magic Remote in the video. Check this out.

LG's OLED TV is super thin, with minimal bezel


I just fell in love with a TV, LG’s OLED TV. LG's 55-inch OLED set was one of the major HDTV announcements at CES 2012 in Las Vegas, and if you watch anything on it for about two seconds, you'll quickly understand why. Colors are extremely vivid, blacks are pitch-black, response times are lightning-quick, and motion is unbelievably sharp. I would love to share the pictures with you.

An apple a day keeps the doctor away?

My mom always told me that “An apple a day keeps the doctor away “. When I was little, I didn’t know what was so great about apples. However, these days, I’m telling people the reason.

Health benefits of apple

·         Apples are low in calories; 100 g of fresh fruit slices provide only 50 calories. The fruits are however, contain no saturated fats or cholesterol; but rich in dietary fiber, which helps, prevent absorption of dietary LDL cholesterol in the gut. The dietary fibers also help protect the mucous membrane of the colon from exposure to toxic substances by binding to cancer causing chemicals in the colon.
·         Apple fruit contains good quantities of vitamin-C and beta-carotene. Vitamin C is a powerful natural antioxidant. Consumption of foods rich in vitamin C helps body develop resistance against infectious agents and scavenge harmful, pro-inflammatory free radicals from the body.
·         In addition, apple fruit is a good source of B-complex vitamins such as riboflavin, thiamin, and pyridoxine (vitamin B-6). Together these vitamins help as co-factors for enzymes in metabolism as well as in various synthetic functions inside the body.
·         Apple also contains small amount of minerals like potassium, phosphorus, and calcium. Potassium is an important component of cell and body fluids helps controlling heart rate and blood pressure; thus counters the bad influences of sodium.
There are also many great tasting recipes you can find all over the internet. Apples are mother earth’s most simple delicacies where the benefits far outweigh anything else.
