World’s First Curved OLED TV For A Panoramic Effect

Samsung Electronics Co. has launched the world’s first curved television, named the Curved OLED TV. This concave television provides a more life-like television viewing experience than flat-screen television sets. It provides users with a strong panoramic effect, which can be strongly felt while watching video featuring the natural environment and scenic landscapes.

World's first curved-screen OLED TV from Samsung

This Curved OLED TV was launched by the South Korean manufacturer at the 2013 International Consumer Electronics Show ‘CES’. This innovative product is actually a concept television, and has been launched mainly to check the interest of consumers in the market. It is not expected to be available for sale soon, so there is no cost price.

The world’s first OLED television by Samsung offers enhanced viewing angles, which makes people who are watching a video feel as if they are surrounded by the beautiful scenery being played out.

The picture quality of this concave curved-screen TV is also much better than any of the other televisions offered by Samsung. As the TV screen is curved, the distance from the viewer’s eye to the screen remains the same from almost all angles. This makes for comfortable, non eye-straining viewing.

TV screen designs have moved from convex, to flat screen, and now to concave curved screens. What do you think of this curved-screen OLED television from Samsung? Would you like watching TV on it?

Brad Pitt’s Furniture Line With Frank Pollaro

Brad Pitt is now designing tables, chairs and beds. Hollywood celebrity Brad Pitt has partnered with Frank Pollaro (a New Jersey based furniture design company), to launch a line of high-end luxury furniture. These tables, beds and chairs include a long glass topped dining table and a large Art-Deco bed.

Brad Pitt discussing furniture designs with Frank Pollaro

Brad Pitt has always showed an interest in architecture and design, and is the narrator for the PBS TV show Design e2. This series shows his ‘Make It Right Foundation’, enlisting prominent architects to build good affordable housing in post-Katrina New Orleans.

Items in Brad Pitt's Furniture Line

With the launch of this furniture line, Brad Pitt will be fulfilling his long time dream of designing furniture. In his debut as furniture designer, the Hollywood star has teamed up with Frank Pollaro, a furniture design company that specialises in the Art Décor style of furniture. Brad Pitt’s collection of home furniture includes a dozen furniture pieces, comprising chairs, tables and an Art Deco-styled bed.

Brad Pitt's Art Deco-styled bed with side tables

In fact, the Art Deco-styled bed was the first piece in the furniture line, which Brad Pitt and Frank Pollaro worked on together. The bed has a frame made from the best quality of glossy tropical-hardwood, together with refinements such as nickel trusses for firmly supporting the king-size mattress, shagreen foot pads, and trendy nickel side tables with silk-under-glass tops. This bed took about two years to craft.

Other furniture pieces in Brad Pitt’s furniture line include:

• An elegant 17-foot-long dining table.
• A stylish cocktail table.
• A few side tables
• A small number of club chairs
• A bathtub for two that has been made in Statuario Venato Marble.

A large number of the furniture pieces in Brad Pitt’s furniture line features the idea of a ‘geometric single line’. The wood dining table is a good example of this, and its case has a jagged base which zigzags at unexpected angles. In addition, the glass-top side table shows off a wispy spiral metal base, which has been carefully finished in 24 karat gold.

All pieces of furniture in Brad Pitt’s furniture line are limited-edition pieces, and will be autographed by both Brad Pitt and Frank Pollaro, as a mark of their authenticity. Buyers can have them customised in a range of fine materials and finishes.

Brad Pitt’s furniture line will be showcased at a special event in New York, from November 13th-15th, during which information about the prices will be given. These prices are expected to be towards the highest end of the scale for custom furniture.

The legendary comfort of these beds led to leading celebrities, such as Marilyn Monroe, Madonna, Elton John, Sir Winston Churchill and Oprah Winfrey, trying them out for a good night’s sleep.

The $75,000 Savoir luxury bed is believed to have taken about 120 man hours to create, and the work of a master craftsman, seamstress, cutter and joiner.

Savoir also creates made-to-measure luxury beds and mattresses, for those rich millionaires who like to splurge on sleep…and there are many of those.

Named ‘Blido’, the gold washbasin crafted by ‘Luxury Edition and Gallery’, is actually made from aluminium, with a covering of 24 carat gold, and a few diamonds in a circular pattern, studded on its exterior (If the diamonds were on the interior, there were strong chances of them getting unstuck, and being washed down the drain...now, who would want that?)

• Hand cast aluminum used in the manufacture of the gold sink. 
• It has one brilliantly cut 2.00 carat diamond, together with eight 0.25 carat brilliantly cut diamonds.

The Atmos du Millenaire is an exclusive watch that will be available in a three-piece limited edition. It does not require batteries, electricity or manual winding to work. Instead, the exclusive Atmos du Millenaire Diamond Jubilee timepiece runs on a single degree rise or fall in temperature (Celcius), which is enough keep it powered for a few days at a time.

Some of other features of the Atmos du Millenaire clock are:

• An engraving of a “Dieu et Mon Droit” seal.
• A detailed family lineage of Queen Elizabeth II.
• Indicators for hours, minutes, months and moonphases.
• Coverage of a lengthy time span stretching from year 2000 to 3000.

How is Jaeger-LeCoultre’s Atmos du Millenaire Watch Powered?

The Atmos du Millenaire timepiece is a brilliant combination of horological know-how and technical excellence. It works according to simple technological principles, which were invented decades back in 1928. The heart of the clock is a small capsule located at the back. This little capsule uses a technological mechanism to convert temperature variations into mechanical energy, thus keeping the clock running, without any restrictions.

In fact, the mechanism of the Jaeger-LeCoultre’s Atmos du Millenaire watch can use sudden changes in temperature to store energy for more than 48 hours. Two features that guarantee the unhindered functioning of this exclusive Diamond Jubilee timepiece are the slow oscillation of the balance, and the use of an elinvar wire for hanging the balance.

Jaeger-LeCoultre’s Atmos du Millenaire watch is also environmentally friendly and uses zero lubricants, thus minimising energy waste. In addition, the Diamond Jubilee timepiece uses a fraction of the energy that other watches use for power. In fact, it is so energy efficient that 60 million Atmos du Millenaire watches working together would only consume as much energy as a 15 watt light bulb!

Aquos - World’s Largest LED HDTV At 90 Inches

Japanese consumer electronics company Sharp has beaten its 2011 record of the world’s largest LED HDTV by announcing the commercial launch of its new 90 inch Aquos LED LCD HDTV. Last year, Sharp had introduced the 80-inch Aquos LC-80LE632U, as the world’s largest LED HDTV.

This announcement was made at a glittering event held in New York City, where it was also stated that the new 1080p Sharp Aquos LC-90LE745U uses less than 150 watts of power, and thus costs a customer only about $28 per year to operate. According to market analysts, the strategy of annually expanding both the size and the price of their HDTVs has helped Sharp expand its reach, considerably.

Features of Sharp’s 90 inch Aquos LED LCD HDTV

Priced at $10,999, Sharp’s 90 inch Aquos LED LCD HDTV is around four feet tall and more than six feet wide. Its picture quality is as great as its size, with the LED HDTV displaying crystal clear images at HD 1080p resolution. As the TV is very light and slim (weighing only 141 pounds without a stand), it is expected to be very easy for people to hang on the wall.

The 5-inch deep Aquos LED LCD HDTV includes Sharp’s proprietary SmartCentral, and offers users direct access to the most popular video-on-demand websites like YouTube, Netflix, CinemaNow and Hulu Plus. In addition, Sharp’s 90 inch Aquos LED LCD HDTV also allows web browsing and Skype communications, with its built-in Wi-Fi facility.

Moreover, the world’s largest LED HDTV is a fully active 3D TV, and comes with two 3D glasses to enable customers to watch their favourite 3D movies. It also has AquoMotion 240, which prevents pictures from blurring, especially during fast-paced action movies or live sports events.

Also, like other Wi-Fi enabled television sets manufactured by Sharp, the 90 inch Aquos LED LCD HDTV TV features Aquos Advantage LIVESM, a free service that allows customers to connect with a trained customer support executive, over the internet.

Sharp’s 90 inch Aquos LED LCD HDTV is currently only available at high-end electronic stores, for the fantastic price of $10,999.
