We are more used to watching our TVs, but Panasonic has revealed a new set that turns the tables – watching us watching it.
The firm claims the new Viera TV sets, revealed at the Consumer Electronics Show inLas Vegas, can recognise owners and adjust the TV according – showing their favourite settings and channels.
The TV sets have a special camera mounted on top of them to spot people – and the remote control can also recognise people from their voice
Panasonic refused to reveal how the system works, but claimed it was extremely accurate, and showed a demonstration showing several family members being spotted.
Once recognised, the TV automatically displayed their favourite channels, web TV shows and other information on a personalised home screen
The firm is one of several showing off new ‘smart TV sets as theLas Vegasshow.
New TVs from Samsung will recognize an expanded range of gestures so people can swipe through on-screen menus in a way that revolutionizes the old remote control.
