George Toh interview

I also did an interview with George Toh, vice president and general manager of the Visuals business at Lenovo.

Toh noted Lenovo is showing off a Yoga 27-inch UHD monitor with a built-in camera and great audio. It can sync automatically with a Lenovo Yoga laptop, and it will be available quickly.

The company also has a 40-inch AI Frame gaming display. It will have an ultra-wide screen, with one third of the screen available for an auto-zoom feature that can zoom in on one part of a gaming map on the right side while you play with a larger view on the left side. Some game offer benefits if you can see this kind of view, like a multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game, or Microsoft Flight Simulator, when you look out the window.

When you connect the devices, Windows recognizes it as one display with two separate screens. .

Toh said you can zoom in and see enemy and still have the big picture. at the same time. It taps the same kind of smart sensor display for detecting multiple devices. There’s also a 27-inch smart monitor with seamless connnectivity, where you can detect devices like smartphones, desktops or laptops. You can have mobile apps like Whatsapp running in the background of the computer.

While the cookies don’t change, you can copy, paste and transfer photos easily with the display, which has its own powerful camera. You can do Whatsapp calls with no transfer of cookies required. You can use Lenovo devices with a smart layer and transfer among them.

Lastly, Lenovo will be showing off monitors that control blue-light emissions, which can be harmful in some ways. In the day time, blue light wakes you up and helps you focus. but after hours, the display simulates the natural rhythm of the sun and emits less blue light. This way, it won’t interrupt your sleep cycle as much if you work at night. This is done through software changes on the desktop.
