LG Set to Innovatively Impact the Electronics Industry

By Mary Ekah

As the year begins in earnest, LG Electronics is again poised to impact the electronics industry on various fronts. Year after year, the company is remarkably known for churning out innovative updates on its most popular products and 2018 would obviously see the debut of more exciting technology than ever before. However, in keeping with the company’s reputation for leadership, the company is also planning to showcase its line-up of innovative breath-taking new products to the market at CES 2018.

LG has a history of setting trends and the company aims to interrupt the business-as-usual mind-set that prevails in several key markets. LG Electronics will obviously be one of the biggest exhibitors at the 2018 CES event in Las Vegas. The event will provide a unique opportunity for the company to showcase to the world its latest technological advancement in terms of home entertainment; home appliances; wearables; computers; smartphones and the biggest of it all Artificial Intelligence (AI) aided devices.

It is on record that to create modern homes one requires both human intuition and artificial intelligence (AI) to bring about a smart solution. LG through its open platform and open connectivity strategy is fast emerging as a leader in the industry. This is obviously one of the tech trends that would shape the year 2018 and beyond alongside many other line-ups of smart products LG is introducing into the market for the benefit of its esteemed consumers across the globe.

Managing Director, LG Electronics West Africa operations, Mr. Taeick Son said: “For LG the year is fully loaded with great products that will be trendsetting, intuitive and perfect for smart homes, which will further shape the year changing the narrative of technological innovation. Indeed, 2018 is a promising year for us, as we intend to upscale existing products and also introduce newer ones that will meet the needs of our consumers.”
LG Electronics is set to expand its reach on SmarThinQ hub, now compatible with Amazon’s intelligent personal assistant Alexia as well as the SmarThinQ Sensor technology with the aim of building Smarter Homes. Some of the features to look out for in LG’s SmartThinQ Hub would be its voice recognition technology, which would enable consumers give commands to kick start household tasks and streamline the control process. LG plans to expand its smart product line-up particularly in the aviation sector with its Airport Guide Robots and Airport Cleaning Robots which are already being experimented with in some international Airports.

LG’s Hub Robot brings together the functions of Amazon Echo, Google Home and more to create the ultimate smart home assistant. The Hub Robot can connect to LG smart appliances, making it easier to complete household tasks. It can even display a wide range of information on its interactive screen, including images of refrigerator content and step-by-step recipe instructions, while simultaneously interacting with multiple household members. The latest LG robot collections would no doubt be on display at LG’s CES booth. This robot is equipped with smart sensors and multiple cameras to ensure a safe and effective performance even in crowded airports.

One of the cutting edge innovations to look out for at the CES event is the LG V30 Smartphone designed specifically, to allow users take photographs of high quality standard without necessarily using the conventional camera to achieve that. The phone comes with an F1.6 aperture camera lens and OLED Full vision display, elegantly designed with user-friendly feature which makes it a unique phone to behold.

At the CES 2018 LG is sure to make a lasting impression with its array of OLED TV which has held the consumers electronics market spellbound for some years now and years to come. The company’s status as an OLED pioneer gives it a significant edge over competition and has clearly allowed it to lay a solid foundation for dominating the market well into the future. Consumers should therefore expect better life experiences with highly sophisticated innovative products that LG Electronics would be bringing their way in 2018.
