Many old CRT TVs used to be furniture or part of the furniture. We’ve come full circle

i'm already picturing my main use for this tv would be to run a fish tank video all day....i always wanted a fish tank full of exotic fishes but couldn't bare the thought of cleaning such a thing and having the fishes die...now my prayers have been answered.😋

[ono]

That TV from Total Recall is finally here!!!

[TheChosenSunBoye]

Finally, no more serial killers hiding behind my TV

[Cycu]

I can imagine my cat trying catch those fishes!

I think it looks pretty cool. Looks almost like holograms.

[Canthatcrazy]

If they brought 3d back for this tv, it could do even more

[hiepbenh]

This much more useful for AR glasses than a TV

[maciekdabrowski]

Great stuff... now you would be able to see all cables messed up behind :D

[moulin]

Now this is futuristic i’m glad they made it when everyone said it could never be done🤝🏽

[michaelhill]

Yay! Now we can see the boring wall behind the TV as well as the TV at the same time...All for the low low price of many 1, 000s of dollars.

"You can make the TV behave like it's a window out to the world"

Or I could just look out the window.

I see this being useful in the museum space

Perfect Aquarium for a relaxing ambiance🕯 to listen 🎶 to. All is needed now is a fly ing (air)rug for a magic carpet ride!!

[아진윤]

wow!~ This transparent TV is amazing! But actually, who needs a transparent TV?

[link_KSH]

It would be practical to make a certain portion of the windshield of a car with that.

Do you guys remember the movie "Paycheck" with Ben Affleck from 2003 ?
I think the LG people have this in mind 😸

They need to improve and utilize an advanced electrochromic glass technology to locally make the glass behind the objects opaque, thereby enhancing clarity and contrast of the displayed objects.

[galaxiedance]

People can't steal your TV if they can't find it :) Very interesting! Mercedes or some company will make a full glass car roof with this tech to project whatever you want while you're driving. That would look cool!!

[BManStan]

I can imagine these in the windows of shops, storefronts, airports, even in car windshields to display HUDs for things like speed and maps.
