this video from ces 2018 is brought to you by the symbios demo car from grouper
0:04
no we'll have that linked in the video description
0:08
so we're here in the ASUS rog suite where they've got a ton of amazing
0:12
display technology on display first up is their 144hz 4k HDR
0:19
gaming monitor that we actually saw demoed like a year ago the pg27uq
0:27
but the key difference is that they are actually going to be shipping this thing
0:31
really soon so that's a large 27 inch g-sync display 144 hertz 4k pretty much
0:37
can't go wrong unless of course you're into ultra wide gaming in which case you
0:41
might be more into the pg-35 vq so
0:44
that's a 3440 by 1440 35-inch g-sync
0:50
200 hertz display so that is double the
0:53
refresh rate of the predator x34 one of
0:56
my personal favorite gaming displays
1:00
also here is a seuss's flavor of NVIDIA's
1:04
bf g tv display what are they calling it yeah
1:08
yeah bfgd or big format gaming display i don't
1:13
think they have a model name for it yet but in a nutshell it's a 65 inch monitor
1:19
effectively because it doesn't have a tv tuner but it does have a lot of features
1:23
that are appealing to gamers so it uses a va panel with a 3001 contrast ratio it
1:28
runs out 120 hertz 4k resolution with
1:32
HDR and it has a built-in NVIDIA shield
1:35
so you can play Android games you can stream netflix amazon prime etc but most
1:41
importantly they're boasting ultra low latency so if you're a couch gamer that
1:46
looks like it's going to be the solution sometime later this year
1:51
the most visually interesting one though is probably this guy now on the surface
1:57
this looks pretty boring it's just like a couple of rubber pieces at the top and
2:02
bottom and then it's a strip of pmma
2:05
which is a plastic material similar to acrylic but what's special about it is
2:11
the fresnel style lenses that are cut
2:15
into it so traditionally the way to achieve
2:19
bending of light would be to have like a big bubble lens but instead this just
2:23
has a bunch of slits cut into it all along kind of similar to the rings that
2:27
you see inside of an htc vive and what it does is if you put it on top of the
2:33
bezels of ASUS pg pg258q gaming monitor
2:38
it makes them essentially disappear by stretching the edge of this screen and
2:43
the edge of this one creating a bezel-less effect now it's
2:47
not perfect you do lose a little bit of light so they are a little bit dimmer
2:52
but i will say that if you're into sim racing the experience is significantly
2:57
more immersive they're optimized for 130 degree angles and they're working on
3:01
getting it working with the pg-35v and pricing is expected to be well they
3:06
don't know but they're saying under a hundred dollars which
3:09
like i would hope so but like that seems pretty reasonable if
3:14
you're into surround gaming so yeah there you go oh i took apart their
3:18
demo anyway
3:21
this video was brought to you guys by the symbios demo car from group renault
3:25
we checked it out quite recently it's their level 4 autonomous car that i
3:29
actually got to drive and i use the term drive with a serious asterisk on it
3:35
because we managed to take it out on the freeway
3:39
with my hands completely off the wheel the seat tilted back and then at its
3:43
most extreme with a vr headset on
3:47
that was actually simulating what it would be like if i was in a completely
3:52
different environment whatsoever with the car sensors themselves tied into the
3:57
vr headset so you guys are going to want to check out that video to see the
4:01
latest in autonomous driving innovations we're going to have it linked in the
4:05
video description so thanks for watching guys dislike or
4:10
