This multi-faceted, revolutionary Videocon DDB LED range was unveiled by The King of entertainment, the Bollywood superstar, Mr. Shahrukh Khan, who after the product experience believes that “If it’s not DDB, then it’s not a TV.”
Sharing his thoughts, Shahrukh Khan on the launch, “Coming from the film industry, the work we do is showed over 2 types of screens- Cinemas and TV. Now, cinemas have evolved tremendously over time, with digitalization and 3D and so many options for the viewers to enjoy our films theway they were meant to be.
But when it comes to the millions of people watching TV at home, the impact of the film is diluted. So I’m on the lookout for a TV that can do justice to the world-class visual and sound effects we use in our films.
This revolutionary initiative by Videocon DDB provides me with an opportunity to witness the future of television technology firsthand.”
The DDB technology enabled LEDs incorporates industry first features like a ‘450 MHz Dual Core Processor’ integrated with 14 Bit Processor capable of creating a 4 Trillion Colour bandwidth, ‘Motion Enhancement and Motion Correction (MEMC)’ capabilities, ‘Cloud Computing’ which allows sharing of files, pictures or songs over the air, ‘2D to 3D Conversion’ which converts usual 2D images to life-like 3D images; along with amalgamating new-age features
like HDMI-CEC enabled DDB Platform devices, 10 Band Graphic Equalizer, Faroudja Audio- Video Optimized and Strata Certified Audio, for a better audio-video experience.
