Samsung has also partnered with renowned French digital artist Miguel Chevalier to create the "Origin of the Curve," a digital art installation that will be on display at the Samsung booth during IFA 2014, from September 5-10.
The "Origin of the Curve" is composed of several overlapping arches and multiple Samsung Curved TVs showing virtual-reality artwork that shifts and transitions in choreographic movement to generative music provided by composer, Jacopo Baboni Schilingi. To amplify the multi-sensory and immersive experience, infrared sensors will allow attendees at IFA 2014 to interact with "Origin of the Curve" by creating distinct visual fluctuations of intricate colored patterns on its curved TV screens.
The "curve" takes inspiration from the specific shape and immersive, living-picture qualities of the new Samsung Curved UHD TV, and is displayed in Ultra High-Definition resolution to provide a stunning and full-spectral rendering of the new Samsung Curved TV's impressive UHD color capability.
Game applications are currently available in limited countries in Europe, Korea and the U.S as they can only be played on Game Panel. Skype will be available in Quarter 4 after an update on the U9000 TV Series.
