Samsung leverages AI to boost movie resolution

Samsung Electronics has introduced a new way to watch old low-resolution movies with its Neo QLED 8K Artificial Intelligence (AI) television.

This was revealed at Samsung’s “Unbox and Discover” event in Lagos on Wednesday. The firm noted that it is set to use AI to make home entertainment more interesting.

“With the TV’s 8K AI Upscaling Pro, users’ favourite shows and movies are transformed to closely match the 8K display, allowing them to enjoy the level of detail and picture clarity that surpasses conventional 4K TVs,” said Ajay David, Samsung’s Head of Consumer Electronics in Nigeria.

According to the firm, Samsung’s AI TV, 2024 Neo QLED 8K QN900D, is equipped with the 8K NQ8 AI Gen3 Processor and a neural processing unit (NPU) that runs twice as fast as its predecessor. “Featuring eight times as many neural networks — 512 instead of 64 — the new AI TV analyzes and optimizes content in real-time, delivering superior picture and sound quality and elevating the TV experience to one that places viewers at the centre,” Samsung said.

Neo QLED 8K is the flagship of Samsung’s latest TV lineup. It is built with the advanced NQ8 AI Gen3 processor and marks a significant leap in AI TV technology.

The firm added that the TVs are designed to connect with a smart ecosystem immediately upon setup. “The moment users turn on their new Samsung TV, the TV recognises and connects to existing networks and devices, all orchestrated through a simple notification on users’ smartphones,” it noted.
