LG Adopts New HDR

LG has added a new HDR standard to the two it already supports. In addition to HDR10 and Dolby Vision, some sets introduced at the IFA 2016 show in Berlin included HLG, or hybrid log gamma, HDR technology. HLG springs from a team effort by the BBC and NHK, the Beeb’s counterpart in Japan. It enables broadcasters to send HDR via cable and streaming. The demo included BBC terrestrial broadcasts and ASTRA satellite broadcasts. LG is also working with the BBC and the European Broadcasting Union on a version of HLG with HFR (high frame rate) of up to 100 or 120 frames per second. Also at the IFA show, LG introduced three UltraWide monitors with 21:9 aspect ratios, billing the 38-inch 38UC99 as the world’s biggest UltraWide monitor. It supports the new USB-C interface and sells for $1,499.
