Samsung LCD HDTV - Best TV in America?

THE REASONS WHY SAMSUNG IS THE BEST

Touch of Color
Beautifully design inspired by light, glass and imagination

Imaging a TV that evokes true emotion, even when nothing is playing on its screen. Samsung's Toc (Touch of Color) design gives the glossy piano black bezel frame a hint of color for an HDTV that is truly original in its beauty.

ONE OF A KIND VIEWING EXPERIENCE
Samsung has a rich history of HDTV design innovation: from gorgeously sculpted silhouettes to the signature piano black finish. Now, we're applying an original, artistic perspective to flat panel HDTV design, drawing inspiration from the art of glassblowing...

Auto Motion Plus120Hz
LCD action has never been smoother

By calculating where moving objects would be in between the original frames, we are able to create and insert new frames to bring film up to TV speed and virtually eliminate motion blur.

REFRESH THE MOVIES ON TV
Samsung's new LCD HDTVs with a 120Hz refresh rate are now capable of showing frames at 120 frames per second. Since 120 is a multiple of both 24 and 30, films with 24 fps can be played back as smoothly as they were filmed, letting you take full advantage of new technologies such as Blu-ray Disc.

Super Slim LCD
Presenting Samsung's slimmest LCD HDTV ever

What's the skinny on Samsung's new LCD HDTVs?
There's less to see, thanks to shallower cabinets and thinner bezels than previous models. Since it's all about the picture, they feature Samsung's newest HD innovations that eradicate blur and enhance contrast for magnificent details.

THIN AND PRETTY
Full HD; slimmer TV. A mere 1.9" deep, Samsung's slimmest LCD HDTV is as much as 60 percent thinner than conventional flat-panel TVs. It's even slimmer than its remote. Place it on the pedestal or mount it nearly flush on the wall...

Creation Processes of 3D Models

Creating a 3-D model takes more than just a good idea. Though it starts with the brainstorming process, the creation of a proportionate 3D model is a compilation of detailed steps, starting with a sketch-up. One the idea has been drawn out in either graph format, simple sketch drawing format, or draft depending on the project. It is then brought to the design team (often times the creative and design team are the same department) to adapt a 3D model from the initial idea.

The next step is to put the idea in digital format with the use of manual manipulation and/or advanced software. For sign and construction companies this can mean the use of programs such as auto-cad that makes it easy to calculate proportions and relativity to the surrounding objects. For creative companies like video game programmers, this means the use of 3-D modeling methods such as Polygonal, NURBS, or Spline and Patching, all of which require the placement of lines and curves over the surface area of a frame to fabricate a life-like representation of the object, creature, or person to be modeled.

Once the finished digital design has been created, it is then sent to the production area to be completed. This can mean a factory that has a way of reading the digital information and the producing the materials, a high tech piece of machinery that uses lasers or some other form of fabrication that is programmed via the specs of the information, or the same software that is used to create the model, in some instances can be hooked up to the machine, and use a mold for the final result.

Creation of a 3D Model Manually

In a world full of technology it is hard to imagine doing many of the things we do on a day to day basis without the use of the internet and software. The use of programs to assist in everyday life and the business world are crucial to the fast turn-around time demanded of most people's lives. In the industry of 3D model creation, the use of high tech software is essential to keeping up with competition in the realms of movie makers, toy factories, and corporate businesses that require structure models, but what about manual model creation?

The art of model creation began before the use of PCs and started as a relaxing hobby. The use of clay, wood, metal and other more crude objects were the first materials used to create these models, and took skill and precision to create accurate to-scale recreations. Mathematics is a large part of manual model creation, and is still required in schools that train for model creation and similar professions.

Though it is not used as often (because of the use of high tech software) basic tools and mathematics are essential to creating accurate models, and is used as a test of the model creator's true skills. Though technology is almost always faster and more precise, the art and skills involved in manual 3D model creation will always be revered as a true talent.
