Panasonic Corporation will be illustrating its concept of Smart Town at CES 2016, from January 6 to 9, 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada, with its latest products, solutions and technology that help realize A Better Life, A Better World for each customer.
The Smart Town in the Panasonic booth (#9808) consists of four areas of Smart Home, Business/Retail, Mobility and Stadium. Using Panasonic's Light ID solution, visitors can get information on the exhibits by simply downloading an app onto their iOS smartphones. The information will be shown on their smartphone screens in the language according to their phone settings.
Panasonic will also host Panasonic Live @ CES2016, a live video stream broadcast direct from the Panasonic booth, to share the excitement of the show with enthusiasts around the world.
[Main Exhibits at the Panasonic Booth]
1. Smart Home
Under the theme of Better Living Tomorrow, the Kitchen and Living Room here showcase lifestyles we all desire in the near future around 2018-2020, with consumer electronics well blended into home decor. Visitors can also find Panasonic's latest products in the DEN (entertainment space), Bathroom, Home Office and Creative Garage. In addition, other related products will be shown in the Green Energy and 4K corners set next to the Smart Home section.
Kitchen
With Panasonic's advanced kitchen appliances and cloud services, this Kitchen realizes rich and healthy eating habits at home - like having your own professional chef and nutritionist in your home.
Free Style Induction Hob and Wireless Kitchen Appliances (Prototype)
In addition to Panasonic's free-style induction hob and cordless kitchen appliances such as an automatic stirrer, the company will exhibit a built-in Smart food pantry for fermenting and maturing food.
Cloud Services (Prototype)
Centering around the Personal Kitchen Screen, this corner shows how connected home appliances can make cooking enjoyable with cloud-based services, such as recipe recommendations that suit a familys eating habits and other helpful suggestions.
Living Room
This Living Room, appointed with your favorite decor, provides an atmosphere where you can relax as you please either by yourself or with your friends or family.
Transparent LCD Display (Prototype)
Seamlessly blended into the decor, this transparent LCD display shows a future of display screens that shows different scenes according to the mood, as well as showing high-resolution videos whenever you want. The display functions as a windowpane when not displaying images, while it can be adjusted for optimal height when used as a display.
Rug Speakers (Prototype)
Built into the carpet, these speakers are integrated into the living space. You can control over the reach of sound; the sound can be directed to people who want to listen to it or away from those who may be reading or enjoying a conversation in the same room.
DEN (Entertainment Space)
This section introduces Panasonic's extensive range of kitchen appliances, including the MX-ZX1800 high power blender and SD-ZB2512 bread maker, both launched in autumn 2015 in the U.K. Using these products, Panasonic will show visitors how simple and easy it is to prepare healthy and delicious meals at home.
Bathroom
Visitors can try out Panasonics new micro-foaming facial cleansing device (EH-XC10-N), debuted last autumn in North America that is designed for luxurious facial cleansing at home. Other personal-care devices on display will include the Nanoe hair dryers, facial steamers using ionic steam, and five-blade shavers that closely contour to the skin for optimal shave.
Home Office
Visitors can find here Panasonic's easy-to-install-and-use home monitoring system that works in synch with a smartphone. The RULO robot vacuum cleaner introduced last year in Japan will be on display for reference. Panasonic will also introduce the concept of ra, smart home and smart building solutions the company plans to launch in North America, along with its efforts to create and deliver Smart Home experience together with its partners.
Creative Garage
This area includes an in-house garage that doubles as a hobby room. Here Panasonic will introduce the world of 4K imaging - doing everything from capturing and editing to uploading 4K images at home, using Panasonic's lineup of 4K products.
Green Energy
In the outside garage, Tesla Motors' Model S is parked. Panasonic's partnership with the automaker will be introduced, including the 18650-size lithium-ion batteries that power the Tesla Model S. The garage roof is covered with Panasonic's solar panels.
4K
Panasonic's premium 4K products can be found here, including the world's first* 65-inch LCD television set supporting the Ultra UH Premium** specs (TX-65DX900), due to be released in 2016 in Europe, and the TX-65CZ950 65-inch OLED TV, launched in autumn 2015 in Europe. Also on display will be a Blu-ray player supporting Ultra HD Blu-ray, which will be released in 2016 in the U.K.
* As of January 6, 2016, according to Panasonic data.
** The highest quality 4K Ultra HD specs set by the UHD Alliance.
2. Business/Retail
Panasonic will propose its concept for a society utilizing advanced technology and solutions, through the settings of Station and Premium Department Store, as well as the technologies behind them. In addition, Technics audio products will be shown in a flagship store in this town.
Station
For a busy station, Panasonic's informational digital signage and multi-language-support Light ID solutions help people who use the station. Other solutions ensuring safety and security shown in the station back yard setting include a network camera that can monitor 360-degree views and provide images with resolution higher than 4K, bone-conduction headphones and a noise-cancelling mic
