New Philips TV has a projector on the back

Remember AmbiLight? Those Philips TVs which included lights at the edge of the screen that splashed colors around to give the picture some presence in your room? Well the tech is back, and this time its called AmbiLux.

New Philips TV has a projector on the back

At IFA 2015, Philips showed off their new AmbiLux TV. It featured a 65 inch panel at 4K UltraHD resolution (which is the standard now, alarmingly), integrated speakers and the fancy stuff which comes with Android TV. There’s internal storage, plus a remote control with a keyboard and a microphone for Google Now.

So what about the AmbiLux? Well instead of using basic lights like in the first iteration of the tech, Philips has now included ten tiny LED projectors on the back of the TV. That basically turns the wall behind the unit into an extension of the screen, adding to the overall immersion of whatever you’re watching.
