ASUS Debuts New Solutions For Business Executives and K-12 Students at CES 2023
At CES 2023, ASUS unveiled two new commercial solutions —ASUS ExpertBook B9 OLED (B9403CVA) for elite business executives and the ASUS BR1102 series (BR1102C and BR1102F) for the education sector. These new, sustainably-designed solutions enable nonstop productivity and hybrid learning, delivering an incredible future in business and education.
ExpertBook B9 OLED provides business executives with an ultra-lightweight, premium design that does not compromise on performance, durability, or security. The rugged and reliable ASUS BR1102 boasts military-grade durability, a TÜV-certified dynamic display with anti-glare and wide-view, and a compact, modular design that enables young K-12 learners to study, stream and play continuously. As ASUS continues to innovate a sustainable future, these two new commercial solutions embody new design and manufacturing practices that reduce environmental impact and carbon footprint.
ExpertBook B9 OLED (B9403CVA)
With business executives traveling and shifting workplaces more than ever, ExpertBook B9 OLED is the ultimate lightweight, premium solution for on-the-move executives. The device delivers premium quality and design while remaining one of the lightest 14-inch business laptops in the world — lighter even than many 13-inch laptops on the market. Made of premium magnesium-lithium alloy, the lightest metal alloy on the planet, its ultralight and durable design feature key upgrades that make it the perfect travel partner for the elite business executive.
While lightweight, ExpertBook B9 OLED still packs in the top-notch performance, security, and durability feature that executives have come to expect. Whether reviewing reports or creating infographics for business proposals, ExpertBook B9 OLED is the ultimate business laptop. Complete with the latest 13th Generation Intel Core vPro processor and up to 64 GB of memory, plus a smart-cooling system to increase performance by 36%, ExpertBook B9 OLED provides quick and responsive computing performance with enterprise-grade manageability. Windows 11 Pro and multiple layers of security including optional TPM 2.0 keep data secure and protect privacy.
The improved webcam, speaker, and microphone array enable high-quality video calls; and the OLED display with a 16:10 aspect ratio and 90% screen-to-body ratio provides vivid color, low blue-light emissions, and an immersive visual experience. US MIL-STD-810H and ASUS durability tested, ExpertBook B9 OLED provides business executives with the leading advantage when it comes to on-the-go computing. It’s also loaded with little extras to boost every user experience, including a touchpad that’s 26.8% bigger than before — enhancing both navigation and control.
And as with all ASUS solutions announced at CES 2023, ExpertBook B9 OLED was designed with sustainability at the forefront. The manufacturing process not only creates increased rigidity but also reduces material waste by 29% and production time by up to 75% to maximize energy efficiency and further reduce environmental impact. With the efforts of environmentally friendly materials and increased energy efficiency among others, the device is expected to be EPEAT Gold verified and exceed ENERGY STAR standards.
ASUS BR1102 series (BR1102C and BR1102F)
Students rely on durable yet flexible laptops to stay productive and succeed in today’s hybrid learning environments. While on the go between home, school, and after-school activities, ASUS BR1102, available in both traditional clamshell and 360° convertible forms, is a reliable companion for the modern K-12 student. Its compact 11.6-inch rugged design fits in any backpack and can withstand drops, bumps, and everyday wear and tear. Passing military-grade testing for durability, BR1102 features a spill-resistant keyboard, tamper- and scratch-resistant exterior, reinforced components, a wraparound rubber bumper, and an easy grip.
Built to engage students wherever they’re learning, BR1102’s education-first features make remote learning easy and fun. With a 12th Generation Intel Core processor and Windows 11 Education, up to 10 hours of battery life, high-speed connectivity, a noise-reducing camera, a webcam shield, and a 13 MP world-facing camera, students will be set up for success every day of the week.
BR1102 is also built to last with a low-maintenance, sustainable design, minimizing troubleshooting and administration for IT teams and maximizing environmental benefits. Uniform screws mean reduced part loss and the modular design makes it flexible in various learning environments. Expandable dual storage for large learning files, a TÜV-certified display, and long battery life ensure students stay connected and in the know about their lessons throughout the day. And as an added benefit, the keyboard featuring ASUS Antimicrobial Guard is verified by ISO standards to inhibit the growth of bacteria by over 99% over a 24-hour period, helping to keep laptop surfaces clean and sanitary.
ASUS Computer International President Benjamin Yeh said, “ASUS is committed to driving progress toward a more sustainable future and creating a net-zero enterprise by using our technological leadership, data-driven rigor, and human-centered philosophy. With the new ExpertBook B9 OLED and BR1102, business executives and students alike benefit from efficient energy usage that reduces their carbon footprint. Beyond the product design, ASUS is also building these products sustainably, with supply, manufacturing, and materials practices that move us closer to our sustainability goals in 2023 and beyond.”

Reolink Launches a 16MP Camera and Dual-Lens Security Camera Lineup at CES 2024
Reolink has unveiled a new dual-lens camera lineup at CES 2024. The company showed off a 16 million-pixel security camera, Duo 3 PoE, and more cutting-edge security products and technologies, redefining the future of home and business surveillance. “Devoted to creating the finest security products for consumers and business owners, Reolink is harnessing the latest technology to make homes and offices more secure and comfortable,” says Fabrice Klohoun, Marketing Manager at Reolink. “We invite conference attendees to join us at CES to witness the latest advances in security solutions, including the 16MP images captured by our devices and additional capabilities of Reolink’s product offerings.”
Reolink Duo 3 PoE 16MP Camera
Reolink’s newest addition to its flagship dual-lens lineup, the Duo 3 PoE, innovatively merges two high-resolution lenses into a real-life vision with an enormous 16 million pixels. Users can capture more vivid details than ever before, including wanted or unwanted visitors, license plates, delivered packages and much more. Boasting an advanced dual-image stitching algorithm, the Reolink Duo 3 PoE camera creates a 180° panoramic view with minimum distortion. Users will experience peace of mind when it comes to property surveillance without missing a single detail.
The most innovative feature of the Duo 3 PoE camera is the built-in Motion Track. By overlaying multiple tracks and positions of people, vehicles, or animals over a certain period into a single picture, users can monitor footage within seconds. This feature removes hurdles like video buffering delays and having to watch multiple footage playback to confirm activity.
Reolink TrackMix Series and Argus Track
Reolink’s hybrid lens TrackMix series provides wide-angle images and target-focused close-ups simultaneously. Together with the auto-tracking function, the TrackMix camera lineup delivers the smoothest surveillance experience for tracking a moving target.
Reolink brings this hybrid dual-lens security technology to a consumer-grade security camera, known as the Reolink Argus Track. This sleek camera incorporates all of the must-have features on the TrackMix cameras: 4K colour images day and night, dual-view display – one for overall and the other for close-up, and 6x hybrid zoom. In addition, it is solar-powered with a 6W solar panel.
Reolink ColorX Series
Reolink is expanding its innovative ColorX true colour night vision technology into more lineups: 4K camera series, Wi-Fi camera series, and PTZ camera series.
Integrating an F1.0 super aperture, an advanced 1/1.8” sensor and HDR function, the new ColorX cameras CX810, CX410W, E1 Outdoor CX capture ultra clear and colourful visuals in extreme darkness, improving nighttime surveillance performance as daylight ones.
Whole-Home Security
High-performing security systems should be full-range and centralized. At CES, Reolink showcased three surveillance solutions for homes and businesses, ranging from wire-free battery solutions and fast Wi-Fi 6 plug-in solutions to solid PoE systems.
All Reolink security camera system solutions embrace a spectrum of advanced features, including 24/7 monitoring, AI-assisted smart detection, instant motion alerts, and more.

LG Launches the “World’s First” Wireless Transparent OLED TV at CES 2024
LG Electronics (LG) is unveiling the world’s first wireless transparent OLED TV at CES 2024. The LG SIGNATURE OLED T is a true technological marvel, combining a transparent 4K OLED screen and LG’s wireless video and audio transmission technology to transform the screen experience in ways that have never been possible before. The OLED T unlocks a world of near-limitless potential, giving users the unprecedented freedom to meticulously curate their living spaces. This is complemented by the class-leading picture quality and performance of LG OLED, powered by the new α (Alpha) 11 AI processor.
LG SIGNATURE OLED T liberates users from a dominant black screen that competes with the décor in their home. Maintaining its 77-inch screen size, OLED T and its innovative transparent display seamlessly harmonize with its environment. Practically invisible when turned off, it blends into the environment and frees users from the long-standing problem of what to do with the ‘big black screen.’ The TV’s beautiful see-through screen also helps to make one’s space feel larger, providing a sense of openness.
The unique LG OLED T brings with it many new possibilities, from where it can be placed in the room, to the kinds of user experiences that LG can now deliver. Its transparent OLED screen removes the usual constraints that come with conventional TVs. No longer does the TV have to be placed against the wall. Instead, place the OLED T in the middle of the room to become a divider or prop it against the window without blocking the view outside. The included Zero Connect Box, which leverages LG’s cutting-edge wireless transmission technology to send 4K images and sound to the OLED T, also enables users to place their TV anywhere, regardless of where the electrical outlets are located in the room. With no cables between the Zero Connect Box and the OLED T, users can enjoy a clean, cable-free viewing environment.
What’s more, the modular design of the LG OLED T facilitates diverse installation methods. The OLED T comes in stand-alone, against-the-wall, or wall-mount options. Customers can further customize by adding standing or floating shelves on either or both sides of the screen to best suit their unique tastes and preferences. LG’s transparent OLED lets owners discover new forms of entertainment and use via its dual viewing experiences: transparent and opaque. The OLED T becomes a transparent digital canvas for showcasing artwork, videos or photos with the Always-On-Display (AOD) feature.
The content displayed on the transparent screen appears to float in air, yet simultaneously fuses with the surrounding space to create a compelling and atmospheric visual effect. Another option is the T-Bar feature that offers a helpful info-ticker running along the lower part of the screen. The T-Bar displays news alerts, weather updates, or the title of songs being played while the rest of the screen presents a clear, unobstructed view of the space behind it.
For viewing in picture-perfect OLED, simply click a button to raise the contrast screen. In this way, users can instantly switch to take full advantage of LG OLED’s enhanced picture quality through the new α (Alpha) 11 AI processor with 4 times greater AI performance. This provides a 70 per cent improvement in graphic performance and a 30 per cent faster processing speed compared to its predecessor. OLED T offers the best of both transparent and vibrant-color screen experiences with just a click of a button.
“An incredible feat of consumer-driven innovation, LG SIGNATURE OLED T offers brand-new screen experiences plus the picture quality and performance of our award-winning OLED technology,” said Park Hyoung-sei, president of the LG Home Entertainment Company. “LG’s transparent OLED gives customers greater freedom to curate their living spaces, completely redefining what’s possible and pointing the way to an exciting future for the television industry.”
