ASUS presents the VG278H, a new 27" 120Hz 3D screen that comes with NVIDIA 3D Vision 2 glasses and NVIDIA 3D LightBoost technology.
ASUS has released the VG278H, a 27” LED 120Hz 3D display with support for the recently announced NVIDIA® 3D Vision™ 2 glasses, as well as NVIDIA® 3D LightBoost™ technology, which improves the 3D experience by delivering up to 2X brighter 3D screen images and better color quality than existing display technologies. The 2ms (gray-to-gray) response time and 120Hz refresh rate ensure crystal-clear 3D visuals. The VG278H is also ergonomically-designed and allows for swivel, tilt angle, and height adjustments. It also comes with a built-in, angle-adjustable 3D Vision emitter to cater to the user’s preferred viewing position.
Immersing users in uncompromised 3D
The ASUS VG278H features the latest NVIDIA® 3D Vision™ technologies — 3D LightBoost doubles the 3D image brightness without increasing energy consumption; while the redesigned 3D Vision 2 glasses features a 20-percent larger viewing lens, a light-blocking visor for comfortable viewing and a more comfortable, gamer-inspired design. The VG278H allows 3D viewing of an array of entertainment options including web-based video streams, Blu-ray movies, and over 550 popular game titles. The built-in, angle-adjustable 3D Vision emitter can be aimed directly at the shutter glasses for optimized signal reception while three 3D Infrared modes (Normal / CE Compatible / LAN party) help eliminate infrared interference from surrounding electronic devices.
Ultra-smooth action
Trace-Free II Technology combines 120Hz refresh rates and 2ms response time to double the frames per second, resulting in vivid, ultra-smooth visuals. The VG278H also has Advanced Dual-side LCD Driving Technology that reduces LCD charging times to prevent ghosting and brightline effects to ensure clear 3D visuals during gaming or video playback.
Suited for every viewing scenario
The VG278H has been designed with the user in mind, ASUS engineers have optimized the VG278H with Photoshop’s Gamma adjustment to create the ideal color presentations for the six most common scenarios (Theater, Night View, Scenery, Gaming, sRGB, and Standard Modes). The fully adjustable stand provides swivel, tilt, and height adjustment to give the most comfortable viewing position. The VG278H also supports a wealth of 3D sources, in addition to PC connectivity via dual-link DVI-D and D-sub, Blu-ray disc-based movies and game consoles can be connected to the VG278H through the HDMI 1.4 port.
