Interactive healthcare display from LG


Nowadays, we all live with a TV, phone or tablet nearby. In healthcare,


it’s become even


more important to offer pa- tients the right care tools. That’s why LG is introducing its first Multi Touch Arm TV, for a hospital experience that’s bet- ter and safer.


LG designed the new Pro- Centric Smart TV with a screen size of only 15.6”, so it can be mounted on a VESA supported arm. It’s easy to move the TV to the most comfortable position for the patient. Doctors can use the Arm TV for consultations, for example, patients can see scans and ultrasounds without being removed from the com-


fort of their hospital beds. Patients can use the Multi


Touch option to easily enjoy interactive service and enter- tainment, such as video on de- mand and premium channels, as well as hospital information. The Arm TV’s IPS technology provides impressive picture quality, even from wide viewing angles. It’s durable enough to withstand heavy use and has a wide range of safety benefits, including antimicrobial mate- rial, cleaning protection glass and rounded corners. All these features make the Arm TV a perfect fit for any institution that wants to optimise its pa- tient care.

 DM NVX Delivering the Ulti- mate On-board Entertainment Experience


NVX is the latest ground-break- ing addition to Crestron’s ex- tensive family of DigitalMedia products making it possible to transmit stunning 4K60 4:4:4 HDR video over standard 1 Gigabit Ethernet, with no la- tency. This makes it possible to create a secure on-board net- work that guarantees reliable signal and content distribution throughout a yacht. Guests can ‘stream’ content – watching movies, music videos and TV shows in high quality, with- out frustrating signal disrup- tion that can occur off shore, whether they are in a bedroom or on deck. NVX is a popular choice thanks to its impressive scalability which can cater for every size yacht, and its guar- antee of no latency and optimal quality visual display.


 Unparalleled User Experience Crestron’s control hub area will


offer a realistic demonstration of how the user experience could be on board. Three touch screens will be showcasing the ETO experience and their abil- ity to have complete control of all aspects of the superyacht and another three touch screens will show the perfect end user experience for guests, and how they can interact with the superyacht via Crestron.
