Eastman Kodak Co. has introduced the worlds first consumer-available wireless picture frame featuring organic-light-emitting-diode (OLED) technology, the company announced September 17.
"Kodak is a worldwide market and technology leader in digital picture frames, and OLED technology was created by Kodak, making us uniquely positioned to bring the benefits of OLED to consumers," says Pete Jameson, general manager, Digital Devices Group, Eastman Kodak Co.
At the heart of the new KODAK OLED Wireless Frame is an ultra-thin, 7.6-inch diagonal digital panel that produces stunning image detail regardless of viewing angle, according to Kodak. The viewing experience is further enhanced by KODAK PERFECT TOUCH Technology, which automatically processes images to improve exposure, brightness and color, and KODAK Image Science, which optimizes image quality for display on OLED panels. The high-contrast luminous display features a contrast ratio of >30,000:1, and offers high-quality, lifelike video playback with sharp, seamless motion in a wide-screen format with 16:9 aspect ratio and 800x480 resolution.
The KODAK OLED Wireless Frame requires no backlighting, and incorporates an ambient light sensor that optimizes the viewing experience by adjusting display brightness based on the surrounding light. Kodak has also designed a premium audio system into the frame, providing outstanding sound reproduction for videos, digital music and online content. The new KODAK OLED Wireless Frame features built-in Wi-Fi technology that enables the display of pictures as well as access to videos and music stored on a PC elsewhere in the home. The wireless feature also enables connectivity to online photo and video sharing sites and Internet content portals for news, weather, sports and more. |
