this video from ces 2018 is brought to you by the akg k7xx available from
massdrop find them at the link in the video description
so we are at one of the trippiest booths here at the show behind me is what is
called a hypervision display wall or
something like that it's freaking cool the brand that makes
it is hypervision and it is unlike anything else i've ever seen now to be
clear like 10 years ago i had a case fan for my computer that had leds on it that
you could program to put some text in this is like that
and it's been at the gym for the last 10 years and it's been roided up as all
hell so each one of these spinning displays
has four blades with over 200 micro leds
per blade that gives you an effective 4k
resolution per fan so you can upload a
3d movie or a 3d animated video to
create a pseudo 3d image and the crazy
thing about it is because it is lifted off of the background it's got this like
pseudo 3d effect that even like looks
three-dimensional when you look at it from the side i asked them how it worked
and they basically went secret sauce
it's amazing so each one of these fans has internal processing we got them to
admit that there's some kind of CPU memory and storage for content but they
wouldn't give us any real details about how that works it'll cost you a whopping
three thousand two hundred and forty dollars per fan so this is mostly
intended for commercial applications but
let's say you kind of goable g-liners i got a lot more than that to spend
and i want more than one fan so the video walls behind me they're just
launching these at the show here well you can rent the small one for 30 grand
and the big one for 50. in the future
they do plan to offer these to things like uh retail spaces for demonstrations
but there's no word yet on availability or pricing now in terms of the content
that can be displayed on these they have a strict certification process for
studios that are authorized to create content for them because they're very
protective of how good the content looks and i can imagine why because everything
they're showing here looks absolutely mind blowing so the way that you get
content to it is it's all cloud managed so each one of these has a wi-fi or
Ethernet connection to pull down the video that it needs so you can use any
3d animation software like maya or cinema 4d to create
massive animations like this and thanks to the way that the fan blades are
actually slightly offset on the walls the appearance is nearly seamless
speaking of seamless here's my transition to our sponsor spot the akg
k7xx from mass drop features an open back design memory foam ear pads and a
leather headband it's a great sounding headphone at a great price and for 200
bucks you can get it delivered to you at the link in the video description
