TV features
The C SEED TV consists of a 4.6 m high column that can be stowed underground in a shaft when not in use. Thanks to the built-in lift system, the C SEED reaches its full height in 15 seconds. With the kinematic system, the 7 LED panels unfold in the next 25 seconds to form an 11 m² screen. The panels form a seamless surface on which high-resolution images are displayed, even in direct sunlight.
Sound
The sound system includes 6 broadband speakers for the left and right audio channels and 3 subwoofers for low frequencies. The speakers deliver distortion-free sound in any weather.
Multi-source media server
The multi-source media server, which sends image and audio data to the screen, is located at the heart of the TV system. The system is based on Windows 7 .
Environmental sensor
The system is equipped with a wind, temperature and laser sensor to prevent damage from external influences.
Fingerprint sensor
To avoid unauthorized access, the remote control is equipped with a fingerprint sensor. The fingerprint identification can also be used to change the position of the screen.
