Introducing The Wall for Virtual Production<\/a><\/u><\/strong><\/h5>\n

Samsung<\/a> will unveil a dedicated display, The Wall for Virtual Production<\/a> (Model name: IVC), available globally beginning June 14.<\/p>\n

\u201cVirtual production studios can use ultra-large LED walls to create virtual content<\/a>, integrating them with real-time visual effects technology to reduce the time and cost of content production,\u201d said David Phelps, Vice President Display, Samsung Electronics America.<\/a> \u201cThe Wall for Virtual Production<\/a> leads the market in the application of this technology.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Wall for Virtual Production<\/a> LED display has pixel pitch options of P1.68 and P2.1. It supports dedicated studio frame rates (23.976, 29.97, and 59.94Hz) while supporting gen-locking to synchronize the screen with a camera\u2019s video signal. A high refresh rate of up to 12,288Hz, 1,500 max brightness, 35,000:1 fixed contrast ratio (for P2.1), and up to 170-degree wide angle enables incredible picture quality for virtual content.<\/p>\n

\"samsung-the-wall-for-virtual-production\"<\/p>\n

The Wall for Virtual Production<\/a> is based on modular technology for a variety of installation options, including a flat screen or up to 6,000R curvature, based on production environment and needs. It can be hung or stacked with other screens and is protected against dust and particles that are common in production environments.<\/p>\n

The integrated Virtual Production Management (VPM) solution makes it easy to manage the screen and ensure high quality picture with an easy interface. To display high quality colors accurately and consistently, The Wall for Virtual Production<\/a> uses 3D lookup tables (LUTs) for color correction, wide color HDR gamut change, and color adjustment between individual cabinets or modules. The VPM can also detect any LED issues for easier troubleshooting.<\/p>\n

Samsung<\/a> will be collaborating with Lux Machina, a pioneer of Virtual Production and modern ICVFX(In-Camera Visual Effects), to showcase The Wall<\/a> for use in Virtual Production. Lux Machina has implemented technology like this in television series like The Mandalorian and House of the Dragon as well as Broadcast events like the League of Legends World Championship, NFL Honors and The ACM Awards.<\/p>\n

“The Wall<\/a> has been designed for Virtual Production.” says Zach Alexander, President of Lux Machina, “With a high refresh rate, true color representation, and a wide viewing angle, we believe that display technologies<\/a> like this could help usher in the next generation of visual effects, making it that much easier for studios to deliver high quality Virtual Production projects.”<\/p>\n

Samsung<\/a> has been working with W\u0113t\u0101 FX as a technical partner and will continue to work with them in the future. W\u0113t\u0101 FX is a New Zealand-based digital visual effects company that has produced some of the highest-grossing films<\/a> ever made, such as the Lord of the Rings trilogy<\/a>, Avatar, and Avatar: The Way of Water.<\/p>\n

\u201cSamsung The Wall<\/a> provides unparalleled picture quality as well as absolute blackness which is ideal for shooting content virtually. We know Samsung<\/a> will be a valuable partner and innovator that will continue to propel the virtual production industry forward,\u201d said Kimball Thruston, W\u0113t\u0101 FX CTO. \u201cWe look forward to working with them in the industry and in our own projects later this year.”<\/p>\n

The All-New Samsung QxC Series Crystal UHD Signage<\/a><\/u><\/strong><\/h5>\n

In addition to The Wall<\/a>, Samsung<\/a> is introducing its full lineup of 20 new models in the globally available QxC Series Crystal UHD Signage Series<\/a>. The displays feature significant upgrades in design and performance for unparalleled features and picture quality in any commercial environment<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The QxC lineup includes five QHC displays with 700 nits of brightness (75\u201d, 65\u201d, 55\u201d, 50\u201d, 43\u201d), eight QMC displays with 500 nits of brightness (98\u201d, 85\u201d, 75\u201d, 65\u201d, 55\u201d, 50\u201d, 43\u201d, 32\u201d) and seven QBC displays with 350 nits of brightness (98\u201d, 85\u201d, 75\u201d, 65\u201d, 55\u201d, 50\u201d, 43\u201d).<\/p>\n

The bezels on the QxC series are consistent and even on all four sides of the display, using the same thickness and dimensions to create a symmetrical design. The VESA mounting holes are in the center of the displays to ensure secure mounting. The series is 28.5mm thick, 40% slimmer than the previous model[1]<\/a>.<\/p>\n

All QxC displays offer an easy and intuitive new user interface, 4K UHD resolution<\/a>, Tizen 7.0 for optimized performance of web services and industry-leading durability. SmartView+ wirelessly connects the displays to up to six devices at once, while anti-glare panels minimize light reflection for an unimpeded viewing experience. Plus, all QxC models have an Eco Sensor that can detect the brightness of the surrounding environment and optimize the brightness of the display accordingly.<\/p>\n

Samsung Interactive Display \u2013 WAC Series reimagines classroom teaching<\/u><\/strong><\/h5>\n

The new Samsung Interactive Display<\/a> (Model name: WAC), leverages Android OS and provides intuitive usability, will be available for InfoComm attendees<\/a> to experience in person. Designed with the needs of educators<\/a> in mind, the WAC Series enables educators to customize their home screen user interfaces (UI), activate multiple screens, share up to nine displays at once regardless of OS or device and utilize intelligent education apps to enrich student learning<\/a>. Users can also take advantage of the integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity.<\/p>\n

Unveiled in 65-, 75- and 86-inch models, the WAC Series<\/a> is built to integrate into any classroom setting. Its connectivity is enhanced with a 3-in-1 USB-C port, which enables hassle-free screen connection, touch control and external device charging (max. 65W). In addition, the HDMI output function allows teachers to share content on a bigger screen, particularly useful in a lecture theater<\/a>. The added capabilities of the WAC Interactive<\/a> foster greater skills development for all students while helping enhance teaching practices<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Samsung<\/a> and its partner, Cisco<\/a>, a worldwide leader in technology that powers the Internet, will further illustrate how Interactive Displays<\/a> are set to transform all levels of education<\/a> with the launch of Cisco\u2019s The Room Bar Pro, a new visual communication (VC) device. The Room Bar Pro links up to three displays for greater collaboration and video conferencing, and now connects to Interactive Displays<\/a>, enabling remote learners to see active white boarding wherever they are. As schools continue to embrace hybrid learning, these added capabilities ensure that all students remain engaged<\/a> and productive throughout the day.<\/p>\n

Beyond the classroom, Samsung\u2019s partnership with Logitech<\/a> underscores how the launch of the Rally Bar Huddle, a new, lower priced VC device, aims to modernize huddle spaces and smaller meeting rooms. The product eliminates the use of a PC to run a meeting as popular conferencing tools such as Microsoft and Zoom are already supported. Logitech<\/a> will host an on-site demonstration of the technology, walking through how the Rally Bar Huddle is a cost-efficient meeting solution that works with Samsung\u2019s Interactive Displays<\/a>. In addition, the company will further illustrate how the Rally Bar runs Microsoft Teams on other Samsung Displays<\/a>. Other Logitech demonstrations will be hosted offsite at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in the Coral Springs Meeting Rooms (1 & 2) from June 14 to 15 between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. EST.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
