Product News Controlled by a pen
LG’s Pentouch TV (PZ850T) is equipped with an interactive screen that allows viewers to control content directly on the screen using innovative Touch Pens. The PZ850T brings the interactivity of the home computer to the big screen, along with 3D technology and 2D to 3D conversion. Connecting the PZ850T to a PC allows users to access a wealth of software, as well as the internet, transforming the TV into an entertainment hub. Users can activate the Pentouch mode with the remote control, while the interface itself is intuitive and easy to navigate. In Pentouch mode, users can access files created on their PCs and work on them, edit them, or move them around the screen. The TV supports simultaneous two-pen use, and batteries can be recharged through USB ports on the back of the TV unit.
