The LG technology uses an AI algorithm that converts low-resolution video into higher resolutions in real time. The deep learning algorithm only uses the internal memory of the device in order to do this, so no additional hardware would be needed.
Probably too late for the 8K but sounds like it could have made the upscaler much better.
Interesting article, it’s indeed exactly what Pimax does (upscaling) but with AI to achieve better results. This would have been awesome to have in the 8k. But as you said, this will be too late for the 8k. But for next gen, interesting stuff.
If they can find a dp1.4 repeater that supports the bandwidth might work okay for longer cables. Though knows they might have already found something along this line.
LG Display has developed an artificial intelligence-based high-resolution content generating technology for virtual reality that reduces latency and blurs.
LG Display, together with Sogang University, has developed artificial intelligence (AI) technology that reduces latency and blur in virtual reality (VR) content.
Head-mounted displays for VR are conventionally highly immersive, but latency and motion blur can cause dizziness. The problem is especially pronounced for higher-resolution displays that require more calculations.
LG’s technology brings an algorithm that converts low-resolution videos to higher tones in real time. It has deep learning that allows use of only internal memory of the device to do so, instead of requiring additional external ones.
The company said it will reduce latency and blur delays by more than five times for VR devices while reducing energy consumption. Devices won’t need expensive GPUs to realise VR as well, LG said.
LG and Sogang additionally developed a motor-powered device that measures latency and blur in VR headsets that mimics a human’s optic view and neck movements.
Wonderful…how to push AI systems in your everyday life, making us think it will solve the problem, until one day it will be ingrained in ANY technology.
