Sony have announced 12 new full HD TV’s in their Bravia range, some of which are 3D TVs. The Sony Bravia LX900, HX900 and HX800 series are each backlit by LED and have full 3d HDTV capabilities with those attending the press event describing them as being “beautiful”.
Interesting features of the LX900 series include a new Intelligent People Sensors mode that uses a built in camera on the TV to detect were viewers are sitting in the room and the system adjusts the sound to match their location. As well as dealing with sound the Intelligent People Sensors also adjusts brightness in that it can detect when the viewer just has the TV on in the background rather than directly watching it… in these cases the picture will dim to save power. When it detects that no viewers are in the room the TV will automatically switch off to again, save a bit more power. Lets just hope that Sony have got this right!!!
One final use of the new sensors detects if viewers are too close to the screen and warns them to sit further away to not do damage to eyes.
Other features found in the TVs include wireless LAN in the NX800 and LX900 range allowing viewers to get on line to watch video on demand from services such as Youtube. The other TVs in the HX900 range have wired LAN allowing users to connect up to a router via an RJ45 cable. If wireless is needed an adapter can be used.
When launched you’ll be able to pick up various 3D glasses that come in three colours of grey, blue and pink.
Here is a run down of what TV’s are included in each range (via: Akihabara – list below). As you will see, they look to be an impressive set of TVs and well worth looking out for and asking for a demonstration when launched.
