January 18 news,most brands that showed 4K TVs at the CES trade show, did it on giant screens. Panasonic took a different approach: its 4K demo ran on a 20 inch screen. And further lineup from Panasonic at CES was a little unruly.
The advantage of 4K is known: more pixels provide a sharper image. But that advantage will mainly gain on a (very) large screens, full HD 1080p which is always visible jagged images can provide. Not so with 4K, as more pixels on the same screen size equivalent to smaller pixels. And thus a sharper image.
Panasonic at CES 2012 but opted for a 4K demo on a 20 inch screen. Impressive, but also a little odd. The Japanese brand has his reasons, however, as you hear in the video below.
Moreover, it is striking that much less spectacular Panasonic at CES came from the corner. His other product launches run even more about design innovations, as you also see in the movie.

According to information contained in the recently published United States Patent Office (USPatent and Trademark Office) regular patent application, Apple, in Cupertino company from speculating on the new system user authorization for its handheld devices, which will be based on face recognition technology. In the documentation, entitled “Low Threshold Face Recognition” (ie, “Face recognition with a low threshold of action”), describes the system identification through integrated front camera, which allows multiple users to take turns working with the same device without interfering with each other.
Such a system can automatically identify a user, for example, the tablet iPad , and offer him a separate profile with individual settings, and applications that need it the man. Naturally, when the user changes the system will offer a different profile with different parameters, but the very recognition will be based on the characteristic facial features, including, for example, eyes, mouth and nose, the distance between them and the comparison with the previously loaded reference image and give an answer in whose hands the device. Incidentally, such a system may well improve the safety and storage of important data in the memory of gadgets, but when exactly it will be translated into reality, it is unclear, given that the patent application was first filed by Apple in June 2010.
