LAS VEGAS–In advance of the 2019 CES, Samsung unveiled the latest developments in its modular Micro LED display technology. The company introduced Micro LED technology at the 2018 CES via the debut of its massive 146-inch “The Wall.”

This year, Samsung is emphasizing the modularity of the technology, which will allow consumers to customize the size of their home displays. At the 2019 CES, the company is launching a 75-inch (more “home-friendly”) version of “The Wall,” along with a 219-inch version.

“For decades, Samsung has led the way in next-generation display innovation,” “Our Micro LED technology is at the forefront of the next screen revolution with intelligent, customizable displays that excel in every performance category,” said said Jonghee Han, President of Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics.

Featuring self-emissive technology and modular capabilities, Samsung’s Micro LED displays are made up of individual modules of self-emissive Micro LEDs, featuring millions of inorganic red, green and blue microscopic LED chips that emit their own light to produce colors on screen.

Samsung says it was able to replicate the 4K picture quality in a reduced display size due to technical advances in the ultra-fine pitch semiconductor process that narrows the gap between microscopic LED chips.

By adding Micro LED modules, users can expand their display to any size they desire, the company said. The modular functionality of Micro LED will allow users in the future to create the ultimate display even at irregular 9×3, 1×7 or 5×1 screen sizes that suits their spatial, aesthetic and functional needs.

Samsung’s Micro LED technology also optimizes the content no matter the size and shape of the screen. Even when adding more modules, Samsung Micro LED displays can scale to increase the resolution—all while keeping the pixel density constant. Additionally, Micro LED can support everything from the standard 16:9 content, to 21:9 widescreen films, to unconventional aspect ratios like 32:9, or even 1:1—without having to make any compromises in its picture quality.

Since Micro LED displays are bezel-free, there are no borders between modules—even when adding more, according to Samsung. The result is a “seamless, stunning infinity pool effect that allows the display to elegantly blend into any living environment,” the company said. 

The company did not mention pricing or availability of the new displays.

LAS VEGAS—Samsung is going big at this year’s CES show and that’s not hyperbole, as one of the company’s main displays is its new 146-inch MicroLED TV display the company has dubbed “The Wall.” In addition to “The Wall,” Samsung showcased a TV that can upscale content to 8K and a Smart TV platform with Bixby and SmartThings integration at its First Look CES event.

“The Wall” is a self-emitting MicroLED TV that the company says is capable of delivering “incredible definition without restrictions to size, resolution or form.” Micrometer scale LEDs replace color filters and serve as their own source of light. The modular-based, bezel-less design enables customization of size and shape.

A QLED TV featuring 8K AI upscaling was also shown by Samsung. The technology is able to upscale standard definition content to 8K by employing an algorithm to adjust screen resolution based on the image quality characteristics of each scene, per Samsung; this includes elements like noise reduction and edge restoration function.

Samsung’s new 2018 Smart TV platform now comes with Bixby, SmartThings and Universal Guide. Bixby is an intelligent assistant platform from Samsung for easier interaction between the TV and consumers with voice analysis capabilities. The SmartThings integration will provide enhanced sharing, connectivity and control of the TV and sync with other devices. There will also be the launch of Universal Guide, which is an advanced program guide that can search for specific contet across apps and programs, as well as recommends content according to user preferences.

Samsung will feature these products at its CES booth, 15006. CES 2018 runs from Jan. 9-12 in Las Vegas.
