To make the press conference a success, we used three Sony HD cameras into a Panasonic HD 400 Switcher to feed CNET, Korea, and the big main screen you see in the above image. The main screen was ultimately switched by a Screen Pro II with the feed from the Panasonic HD 400, two Playback Pro computers, and two Powerpoint computers. All the equipment used HDSDI protocol so that the images were all in HD.

Now, you're probably wondering: what is an OLED TV? Named for the high tech material used in the screen, OLED means organic light-emitting diode. Unlike traditional, synthetic LEDs (light-emitting diodes), OLED uses an organic substance that glows when an electric current is introduced. This revolutionary material is part of new design approach that drastically reduces the thickness and weight of the TV. OLED is available for a cool $12K, and you can learn more about it here.
