SEOUL, Feb. 16, 2022 — LG Electronics (LG) has entered into a global partnership with the US-based Blackdove to deliver seamless digital art experiences on LG’s advanced digital signage displays. Integrating software and curated art from Blackdove’s digital art gallery and NFT (non-fungible token) platform, LG’s high-quality, customizable display solution will provide a convenient way to showcase digital art, which has emerged as the dominant medium in the global art market.

LG’s vibrant digital displays are the superb medium for art installations and the perfect addition to corporate lobbies, galleries, luxury residences and countless other public settings. LG LED signage offer exceptional flexibility with simple-to-install, modular, scalable designs and premium picture quality with resolutions from Full HD (1,920 x 1,080) to 8K (7,680 x 4,320).

Available in markets worldwide starting this quarter, Blackdove curation software can be bundled with LG LED signage products including LG MAGNIT, LG LED Bloc, LED All-in-One and fine-pitch LED signage to deliver the gallery’s vast library of digital art assets. Hand-picked by Blackdove’s curatorial team, the selection of artworks by contemporary artists such as Jonathan McCabe, Kenneth Wayne, Meghan Cheng, Franck Lefebvre and Jamie Scott encompass a broad range of subjects and styles for both new and experienced fans of digital art.

“LG is delighted to partner with Blackdove as this partnership allows us to engage our LED signage customers with a benefit that is unique to LG,” said Paik Ki-mun, senior vice president and head of the Information Display business unit of LG Business Solutions Company. “The option to transform LG LED signage into digital canvases in spaces such as luxury residentials, corporate lobbies, hospitals and retail stores is something we think the public will have a very positive reaction to.”

“We are gratified to have been selected by such an extraordinary partner as LG,” said Marc Billings, CEO of Blackdove. “Digital art is the first form of art in history that can be experienced natively by the whole world in an instant, giving it universal appeal. This makes possible an exponential increase in both the amount and diversity of art, as well as a path to universal access to affordable art enjoyment and ownership.”

      Revolutionary Vision Display, Intelligent HMI and Connectivity & Content Solutions
      Redefine the Smart Mobility Experience

      SEOUL, Nov. 11, 2024 — LG Electronics (LG) is introducing the Digital Cockpit gamma, the latest addition to its Mobility Labworks Series, which showcases advanced technology concepts for the automotive industry. This new model is the third in the series, following the introduction of the alpha and beta models last year.
      The Digital Cockpit gamma is equipped with LG’s most sophisticated vehicle technologies and features three modular solutions: the Vision Display, Intelligent Human-Machine Interface (HMI) and Connectivity & Content. These modular systems offer significant customization options within the vehicle cabin, allowing automakers to tailor features to meet the specific requirements of each design. For end-users, the Digital Cockpit gamma delivers superior convenience and seamless connectivity, revolutionizing in-car entertainment, communications, and driver assistance systems. This innovation provides a compelling glimpse into the exciting future of mobility.
      Vision Display: Shaping the Future of Automotive Interiors
      Presenting a range of new possibilities for future automotive interiors, the Vision Display solution is designed to adapt seamlessly to dynamic environments. Its 12.3-inch Transparent OLED screen offers key data to inform and entertain passengers during autonomous driving, displaying real-time navigation, current speed and points of interest (POI). LG’s solution also features a 14.2-inch roll-in-and-out Plastic OLED (P-OLED) display embedded in the center console, which can be retracted when not in use, maintaining a clean and minimalist cabin space.
      Intelligent HMI Solution: Intuitive AI-Driven User-Vehicle Interaction
      The Intelligent HMI solution leverages AI and responsive touch technology to provide easy, intuitive user-vehicle interactions. A key feature is the adaptive controller, a touch-sensitive curved OLED display integrated into the steering wheel, allowing drivers to effortlessly manage navigation, multimedia and climate-control settings, complete with haptic feedback for a more tactile experience.
      In autonomous driving mode, the adaptive controller can make the journey more enjoyable by providing access to entertainment apps and games. Furthermore, LG’s AI-based virtual assistant offers smart support for various situations. For example, if it detects driver fatigue, it can order a coffee from a nearby location and facilitate quick payment via the screen’s built-in fingerprint-recognition sensor. The Intelligent HMI solution also supports the Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) 3.0 standard, enabling system updates and real-time emergency alerts without requiring a network connection.
      Connectivity & Content Solution for Seamless Entertainment and Smart Mobility
      The Connectivity & Content solution transforms the rear passenger seats into an interactive entertainment hub, enhancing in-car experiences through 5G network connectivity and LG’s webOS platform. Passengers can stream high-definition content, access live broadcasts, interact with POI data, share their screen via the in-car screen-mirroring feature, and navigate content and control volume using hand gestures. Supporting a number of different ride-sharing apps, the webOS-based Connectivity & Content also represents a convenient solution for owner-drivers.
      “Digital Cockpit gamma demonstrates LG’s leadership in cutting-edge in-vehicle innovations and our dedication to creating working concepts of transformative technologies for future commercialization in the automotive industry,” said Eun Seok-hyun, president of LG Vehicle component Solutions Company. “We will continue to provide customizable vehicle solutions that enhance the in-car experience, ensuring seamless connectivity and a smarter, safer on-road environment.”

    • Solution For That Pollution
    • By News Reporter
      Over the last few decades, football has fully embraced technology in various ways. From wearable smart tech that acquires player data during games to goal line technology that ensures every legitimate goal is given, innovation has changed the way we play the beautiful game – and now how we experience it. In this spirit, LG Spain has teamed up with European giants Atlético de Madrid, a storied Spanish fútbol club with a passionate global fan base and rich legacy dating back to 1903, to deliver its cutting-edge signage products and technological innovations.
      As an official sponsor of Atlético de Madrid for the next two seasons, LG Spain will install its LED signage throughout the magnificent Estadio Cívitas Metropolitano. The ellipse-shaped ribbon LED poised to adorn the stadium’s roof will not only deliver an immersive visual experience to fans, but also become one of the stadium’s most iconic design elements. Measuring 2,000 meters with mesh LED materials and a luminance of 7,500cd/m², this “sky ribbon” display is ready to captivate over 70,000 fans every week with its mesmerizing 360-degree visual effect.
      At the entrance, four rounded outdoor LEDs will be installed, while a 45-square-meter LED banner display will welcome fans with LG’s exceptionally bright and high-resolution display technology. In addition, tunnel LED screens will be added to the wall and arches in the players’ tunnel to build anticipation and immersion as the players step out onto the pitch.
      To ensure that this sponsorship transcends the pitch, LG Spain will support the club’s Ciudad del Deporte project, a state-of-the-art sports city expected to be completed by 2026 in collaboration with the local government. To this end, LG Spain aims to help modernize the sports city’s facilities through the wide implementation of its latest digital signage solutions.

      This partnership underscores the confidence of Atlético de Madrid in LG’s display technologies, as this is not the first time they crossed paths. Back in 2017, LG Spain installed LED signage with a total size of 755-square-meter across its 88,000-square-meter stadium. This means its loyal fans are well aware of LG’s ability to vividly bring the match to life again with clear match replays and immersive club-related content.
      “LG is the perfect partner to enhance the stadium experience for all spectators visiting the Cívitas Metropolitano,” said Óscar Mayo, director of Revenue and Operations at Atlético de Madrid. “Thanks to this new project, our stadium and future sports city will benefit from high-level display technology, exciting our fans that come from all around the world to see us play while setting a new technological standard.”
      LG has a track record of installing highly impressive digital signage installations in arenas across Europe, including London’s iconic Wembley Stadium and ultra-modern Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Germany’s Deutsche Bank Park Stadium and Finland’s Nokia Arena. These installations helped deliver unforgettable match experiences for millions of spectators, which drives LG to bring the exceptional visual experience to more arenas across the world.
