WEBVTT 00:00:00.399 --> 00:00:07.040 welcome to Linus Tech tips at CES 2013 our trip to the show this year is 00:00:04.640 --> 00:00:11.360 powered by Corsair maker of quality PC components and peripherals our trusted 00:00:09.080 --> 00:00:14.960 storage partner is Seagate technology and our trusted networking partner 00:00:17.400 --> 00:00:24.640 is guys we're hands on with Project Shield this is NVIDIA's new handheld 00:00:22.800 --> 00:00:30.160 gaming system based on Android based on the Tegra processing technology and we 00:00:27.279 --> 00:00:35.160 are going to Showcase what I think on the internets right now is the biggest 00:00:32.439 --> 00:00:38.239 Buzz about this particular little gaming console because we've all got phones at 00:00:36.960 --> 00:00:43.000 this point that we carry around we can play games on a touchcreen but where do 00:00:40.719 --> 00:00:47.079 you get the integrated uh the integrated controller and where do you get the 00:00:44.360 --> 00:00:52.840 ability to stream from a GeForce graphics card powered PC so sorry what 00:00:50.120 --> 00:00:58.199 was your name again James James is going to show us how this technology works 00:00:55.239 --> 00:01:03.480 with a live demo yes this is a you know as a said already unprecedented use case 00:01:01.840 --> 00:01:08.240 no one's done this before we all have really powerful PCS at our homes and our 00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:11.560 PC Gamers anyway and we want to be able to play that more than just sitting on 00:01:09.680 --> 00:01:14.759 our desk so here you'll be able to connect through this and the picture 00:01:13.080 --> 00:01:20.840 will be rendered on your PC and then beamed over as h.264 video onto the uh 00:01:18.119 --> 00:01:25.640 NVIDIA Shield handheld so the interface is actually very simple you can see you 00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:31.600 just press the mid button here and uh now you can see which PCS you can pair 00:01:28.799 --> 00:01:35.880 to here we have Jensen's PC our CEOs thank you for donating that Jensen and 00:01:33.880 --> 00:01:39.360 we just connect to it and it says it's connected now you have this very very 00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:43.000 simple interface where you can select all of your most favorite PC games 00:01:41.320 --> 00:01:46.759 imagine playing Battlefield 3 you know sitting on the couch instead of you know 00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:52.200 tied to your computer desk so we can launch for example the Speed Most 00:01:49.759 --> 00:01:55.840 Wanted and uh over so can I get you to explain something really quick this 00:01:53.680 --> 00:02:00.079 cable coming out of the back of the unit that is not anything to do with the 00:01:58.520 --> 00:02:03.960 gaming experience you're having here screen is that correct we're at CS it's 00:02:01.719 --> 00:02:07.200 a lot of Wi-Fi noise so we to make sure we have good uh good reception we're 00:02:05.479 --> 00:02:11.840 just going with Ethernet right now but we can do this wirelessly at home that's 00:02:09.920 --> 00:02:15.640 the intended use case at home you're going to be using a Wi-Fi connection and 00:02:13.879 --> 00:02:18.840 so long as you have a pretty good router and uh a pretty up- to- dat graphics 00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:24.000 card you know the latency is going to be very good so in terms of ergonomics It's 00:02:21.879 --> 00:02:28.800 s I would I would consider it to be sort of a good fit between being able to put 00:02:26.480 --> 00:02:33.120 your ring fingers right up under the handle here so that you can easily 00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:36.959 manage it with smaller hands I think the intended use is not just the traditional 00:02:35.480 --> 00:02:42.840 audience of the hardcore Gamers that NVIDIA is catered to but I would expect kids to be using something like this 00:02:40.360 --> 00:02:46.159 this will be so much more powerful that I mean especially someone like I mean 00:02:44.200 --> 00:02:50.040 I've got a young kid I'd much rather get him something like this where he can 00:02:47.680 --> 00:02:53.680 leverage the power P PC that I already have in my house I already bought it why 00:02:52.159 --> 00:02:57.280 am I buying a game console that's not going to take advantage of it right so 00:02:55.959 --> 00:03:01.920 you know what you can use it like that but you look at how long these handles are your hands are actually 00:02:59.920 --> 00:03:04.959 significantly bigger than my own so I'd like you to just hold it there and show 00:03:03.360 --> 00:03:08.040 them how you can adjust your hand backwards on it so that you can easily 00:03:06.480 --> 00:03:11.599 reach the controls regardless of the size of your hands the button layout is 00:03:09.879 --> 00:03:14.640 pretty simple so for those of you who like the SNES controller you're going to 00:03:13.200 --> 00:03:19.319 be able to use it just like that for those of you who like a more modern controller you can use it with the Dual 00:03:17.480 --> 00:03:22.360 analog sticks there's the two shoulder buttons up on each side so you've got a 00:03:20.799 --> 00:03:25.360 trigger as well as a regular shoulder button and a headphone jack up here 00:03:24.200 --> 00:03:29.000 we've got it plugged in using an Ethernet adapter and it looks like that 00:03:27.319 --> 00:03:31.920 is is that a power connector as well so this is running off battery this is a 00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:37.519 this is a makeshift that bracket would develop just for the Cs show one exists 00:03:35.159 --> 00:03:41.680 so straight off there's an SD card slot micro HDMI and audio out so don't worry 00:03:39.959 --> 00:03:46.000 guys it's a lot more elegant than that uh these plates on the top are actually 00:03:43.319 --> 00:03:51.009 interchangeable so I haven't I have not whoa okay I don't know I broke 00:03:51.959 --> 00:03:58.280 it there we go I'm probably going the wrong way at this 00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:05.400 point so this green is running at what resolution 720 720p so this is an HD 00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:11.480 gaming experience I mean that makes it pretty much close to something like a 00:04:07.159 --> 00:04:13.400 retina display the size thre the density 00:04:11.480 --> 00:04:16.639 speakers are awesome in fact I can even feel the vibration of the unit itself in 00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:21.199 my hands does it have a built-in vibration or is that just the speakers 00:04:18.959 --> 00:04:24.800 just the sound that's very very cool so start and back button are integrated 00:04:22.560 --> 00:04:28.840 here and of course it is a full touch screen as well viewing angles I want to 00:04:27.440 --> 00:04:32.000 get you guys a look at that because you can see looking at the yellow of the car 00:04:30.840 --> 00:04:37.680 itself right there I'm just going to turn the volume down just oh there we go 00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:41.440 turn the that's veryy intuitive actually see I didn't know how to do this um I 00:04:39.479 --> 00:04:44.520 want you to see the yellow of the car as I tilted away from you so if you have a 00:04:43.199 --> 00:04:48.199 friend sitting next to you they want to look over your shoulder as is bound to 00:04:46.240 --> 00:04:51.320 happen with these kinds of really cool gadgets that other people want to check 00:04:49.479 --> 00:04:56.280 out they're going to be able to see it so um have I have we missed anything 00:04:54.360 --> 00:04:59.520 critical no I think you've covered it tell me about the battery life battery 00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:03.280 life we're looking about 5 to 10 hours of battery life playing a a Android 00:05:01.639 --> 00:05:07.160 based game but if you're playing with streaming PC that's going to last even 00:05:05.080 --> 00:05:11.880 longer because all you're doing is decoding video on the device uh all the 00:05:09.440 --> 00:05:16.600 heavy lifting has been done on the PC and I think I can speak for everyone 00:05:13.960 --> 00:05:22.039 when I say this is incredibly exciting but I'm actually even more excited for 00:05:19.160 --> 00:05:26.080 something like a Gen 2 gen 3 Gen 5 product where we're going to be looking 00:05:23.800 --> 00:05:30.440 at 1080P or even greater display resolutions we're going to be looking at 00:05:27.400 --> 00:05:32.199 the ability to I mean this is this is 00:05:30.440 --> 00:05:37.080 incredible this is the beginning of a wonderful friendship all right well thank you very 00:05:35.160 --> 00:05:41.120 much and a big thanks to NVIDIA for allowing us to get in here and get 00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:44.919
