Samsung D'Light in the company's Seoul office building features a showroom on two flights.

Visitors can play video games and see augmented reality demos on Samsung smart TVs.

They can test out smartphones, tablets, and PCs, and do demos for smart, connected home products.

The showroom also has information about components and software.

Samsung's Seoul office building has a showroom and store, called Samsung D'Light, on the bottom three levels.

It has become a popular stop for tour buses, and visitors can buy mobile devices and other gadgets in the store.

Workers from Samsung's phone manufacturing plant in Gumi head to lunch in the free cafeteria.

Many workers who assemble the phones are high school-educated women in their 20s.

All wear uniforms of polo shirts and khakis or black pants during their shifts, and many live in subsidized apartments on the edge of campus.

A sculpture on Samsung's Gumi campus in South Korea reminds workers of the company's origins. Samsung means "three stars."

Katherine Woo, a Samsung PR rep, shows off the company's mobile museum on its Gumi campus, which is also called Smart City.

One display shows the different pieces and components that make up the Galaxy S4.

Another shows every phone Samsung has made over the years.

It includes old TVs, refrigerators, phones, and other devices, even an early watch phone and a phone designed for the movie "The Matrix."

Samsung's various campuses, including Digital City, are littered with green space and athletic fields for employees to use.

Digital City resembles a city, and many buildings on the campus are new.

That includes R5, the company's building with double towers for mobile R&D, pictured here along the right.

The sleek, glass facility, which opened in June, features tighter security than most airports, with security guards posted at metal detectors at the ready to search for USB sticks.

Samsung's headquarters in Suwon, South Korea, is known as Digital City. This is where some of the company's brightest minds brainstorm and create new devices.



Most of the workers at Samsung's factory appeared to be young women in their late teens and early-to-mid twenties.

Many join the company right after high school if they're unable to go to college.

Some 13 miles south of the capital city of Seoul, Korea, is the place where Galaxy series are developed and tested, the first designs for Samsung’s Curved UHD TVs were sketched, and many other cool gadgets are still yet to be conceptualized.



The place is called ‘Samsung Digital City.’


It is not really a city.

It is actually one of Samsung’s campuses where many of the brightest minds from around the world come to work and put together ideas.

Innovative!


Good job Mr Explorers

Technology bro.


Decades ago, we used Lucozade nylon or sticking nylon with different colours on the screen of our standing Black/White box T.V


Only our king and some chiefs had real coloured T.V made of wood/formica in the whole town.


Only God knows what T.V will look like in 50years.

Samsung's Ambient Mode tries to prevent the TV from looking like an ugly black box when is off or in sleep mode.



Users can upload their own photos and set them as the TV's background


The Samsung's new Ambient Mode also echoes many of the same features used in its Frame TV, which was released last year.


The Frame is meant to look like a picture frame, artwork that's hung on a wall when the T.V is off or in sleep mode.

Samsung has figured out a way to almost make your TV magically disappear.

The Korean tech giant unveiled its new line of futuristic smart TVs on Wednesday and one model can blend in with your wall just like a chameleon.


Its next generation QLED TVs include a feature called Ambient Mode, which enables the TV to blend in to the background whenever it's turned off.



To turn on Ambient Mode, open Samsung's SmartThings app, which is its connected home hub.

From there, you take a picture of your wall even if it's patterned wallpaper, brick, wood or a plain white surface.


The feature attempts to make the TV look transparent by using a color and brightness matching process, displaying the same color or pattern shown on the wall behind it.



In short, Samsung's clever new Ambient Mode tries to prevent the TV from looking like an ugly black box.

The feature also displays information on the TV screen even when people aren't watching movies or TV.


It can play music and display the time, news headlines, traffic reports or weather updates.





Samsung released the new 5 QLED models on Wednesday, which range in size from 49 inches and 82 inches.


All the models have Ambient Mode.


Samsung says they'll become available for purchase in the next few weeks.


Price is undocumented.

Consumers lose as much as $4 billion a year due to odometer fraud.

Toyota Cars Are Extremely Durable.



Approximately 80% of Toyota vehicles produced over 20 years ago are still on the road.

According to AAA, the average life span of a vehicle in the United States is 11years.

In this image made from February 13, 2017, airport closed circuit television video and provided by Fuji Television, Kim Jong Nam, gestures towards his face while talking to airport security and officials at Kuala Lumpur International Airport.


He approached an airport information counter to report the assault.

Juliana Idris, the first person she spoke to at the counter, said that his hands were shaking a bit.

He told her he'd been 'attacked from behind by two women,' with one of them wiping something over his eyes.

Idris was one of a number of witnesses to recount the Kim Jong-nam's final moments as the trial began in Malaysia.


Kim was carrying four diplomatic passports and eight different international currencies when he was attacked.

Multiple witnesses said they watched in horror as Jong-Nam struggled to breathe.

Then his eyes rolled back before he lost consciousness.

In little more than an hour, he was dead.

The US State Department has said that the North Korean government used chemical warfare agent VX to assassinate half-brother of Kim Jong-un in Malaysia in 2017.

State Department says it has imposed additional sanctions on North Korea over the assassination.

An autopsy showed the banned VX nerve agent was found on Kim's face and in his eyes, blood, urine, clothing and bag.

Jong-Nam was waiting for a flight to Macau at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport, Malaysia on February 13 when two women ran up to him from behind and appeared to spray an unidentified liquid on him.

He soon started feeling dizzy, collapsed and died before the ambulance carrying him made it to the hospital.

Japanese broadcaster Fuji TV released a CCTV video that captured the attack.

The next day, South Korean television broadcaster TV Chosun reported that thetwo women were North Korean operatives who fled the airport in a taxi.

On February 15, South Korean government officials confirmed the death and told the press that North Korea's government had been planning to kill him for the past five years.

Kim Jong-Nam is the illegitimate son of deceased North Korea leader Kim Jong-Il and North Korean actress Song Hye Rim.

A baby resulting from a uterine transplant would be delivered by cesarean section.

The wombs are not intended to be permanent.

Having one means a woman must take powerful drugs to prevent organ rejection, and the drugs pose long-term health risks, so the uterus would be removed after one or two successful pregnancies.

For women born without a functioning uterus, 'transplantation represents the only way they can carry a pregnancy,' the statement said

Doctors have delivered the second American baby born to a woman following a uterus transplant from aliving donor.

The little girl was born via cesarean section weighing 6lbs 7oz, with no complications, at Baylor University Medical Center in Dallas, Texas, medics confirmed today.

The mother, who has not been identified, was born without a uterus due to a syndrome called Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH), meaning she always thought pregnancy and childbirth were not anoption for her.

However, that changed when she became one of the eight women selected to receive a womb from a donor, six living, two deceased as part of Baylor's ground breaking endeavor in 2016.

While four suffered complications that led to their removal, this is the second to prove a resounding success.



Some women are born with a syndrome known as MRKH (Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser), which means their womb never developed properly.


Others lose their wombs to cervical cancer.
