Revealed at this year’s CES, LG’s Smart Home AI Agent uses cutting-edge robotic and multi-modal technologies that enable it to move, learn and comprehend in order to help free people from the burden of household chores. Thanks to LG’s collaboration with Microsoft Azure Open AI, the Smart Home AI Agent is capable of engaging in more complex conversations with users.

      Designed for Elevated Home Living, Company’s Premium Residential Air Conditioner
      Effortlessly Blends Advanced AI Technology With Artful Aesthetics

      SEOUL, Mar. 6, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) is unveiling the ARTCOOL AI Air, an advanced cooling and heating solution designed to deliver optimal indoor comfort, sophisticated style and convenient usability. Adopting LG’s advanced AI Core-Tech, this impressive residential air conditioner learns from users’ preferences to provide personalized climate control and improved energy efficiency.
      The ARTCOOL AI Air leverages AI-powered climate optimization to create a more comfortable living environment. Its AI Air mode intelligently adjusts airflow strength and direction in real-time, taking into account the room’s layout and occupants’ positions. Compatible with the ThinQ app, users can remotely monitor and customize airflow settings to suit their preferences. In addition, the Sleep Timer+ function enhances comfort by regulating temperature and airflow based on individual usage patterns, creating the ideal conditions for a restful night’s sleep.
      Boasting a sleek, modern-minimalist design, LG’s latest ARTCOOL fits seamlessly with a wide range of contemporary interior styles. The new model’s black mirror glass finish and the series of horizontal bars composing the grille at its lower edge add a touch of luxurious refinement to any room. The grille not only provides a subtle yet striking visual contrast to the reflective black surface above it but also plays a crucial role in enhancing airflow distribution. When airflow is directed solely through the ARTCOOL’s front outlet, the distinctive multi-line grille structure helps create a “wind spread” of over 180 degrees, delivering a softer and more pleasant breeze.
      Moreover, the company’s new air conditioner proactively helps users save energy with its AI kW Manager and Window Open Detection features. Accessible via the ThinQ app, the AI kW Manager provides real-time power usage data and allows users to set customized energy-usage limits, offering a convenient way to monitor and control the electricity consumption of the ARTCOOL AI Air. The Window Open Detection and the Human Detecting Sensor contribute further to the prevention of energy waste. The Window Open Detection feature switches the air conditioner to energy-saving mode when it detects a sudden change in temperature, while the Human Detecting Sensor activates energy-saving mode when it senses the room has been unoccupied for a period of time.
      “The ARTCOOL AI Air combines sophisticated design with LG’s cutting-edge AI and air conditioning technologies to provide personalized comfort, premium style and intelligently energy savings,” said James Lee, president of the LG ES Company.

      SEOUL, Dec. 19, 2023 — LG Electronics (LG) unveils its 2024 soundbar lineup, including the S95TR, SG10TY and S70TY models. Crafted to seamlessly complement LG TVs, these soundbars promise an elevated home cinema experience through their robust sound quality, well-rounded features and sophisticated designs.
      Creating an enhanced synergy between the soundbar and TV, the elevated audio quality of LG’s newest soundbar models enriches the home entertainment experience with a heightened sense of immersion and greater convenience. When paired with WOW Orchestra, the soundbar and LG TV harness the full potential of their audio channels, creating an unrivaled audio experience with an enlarged soundstage and improved depth and height. The ideal choice for a surround sound experience, LG’s new soundbars deliver the superior quality of Dolby Atmos, driven by the advanced technology of DTS:X.
      WOWCAST takes audio excellence a step further, allowing the S95TR and SG10TY models to connect wirelessly to LG TVs, ensuring superior sound without any compromise, even when playing Dolby Atmos audio. All three new soundbar models feature the WOW interface, an intuitive and user-friendly method to effortlessly manage soundbar settings and share sound modes with the TV.
      At the forefront of LG’s new soundbar lineup is the premium S95TR model, delivering an impressive 810W output and captivating surround sound through its 15 channels. The S95TR boasts five up-firing channels, including the industry’s first center up-firing speaker, creating an unparalleled three-dimensional audio experience with enhanced clarity and an expanded soundstage. Moreover, the angle of the center up-firing speaker ensures a seamless audio-visual experience with precise elevation to the TV screen’s level.
      The S95TR features improved tweeters for clear and precise audio, while also incorporating a passive radiator to enrich bass sounds and optimize the overall balance between the soundbar and the subwoofer. Notably, viewing quality is further strengthened in the S95TR model, designed with a matte color palette, materials and finish to effectively reduce reflections.
      The SG10TY, another new LG soundbar, serves as the perfect audio and visual companion to LG’s premium OLED TVs. WOW Orchestra, WOW Interface, and WOWCAST enable the SG10TY model to seamlessly integrate with LG OLED TVs, completing the viewing experience for a greater sense of immersion. Remarkably, connecting WOWCAST to the SG10TY model and an LG premium OLED TV creates a wireless home entertainment experience with no visible cables between the screen and the soundbar. This Wi-Fi enabled soundbar provides a flawless listening experience with a high-fidelity audio quality for listeners to enjoy their favorite tracks on music streaming platforms including Tidal Connect and Spotify Connect. The thoughtful design of the SG10TY flawlessly aligns with the width and frame colors of LG OLED TVs, resulting in an impeccable visual match when paired with an ultra-thin OLED TV.
      LG will also roll out the S70TY soundbar model, ideal for LG QNED TVs with its simple and compact design. This model also features the industry’s first center up-firing speaker, providing sharpened voice clarity. The angled design ensures harmonious audio and visual in alignment with the TV screen’s level.
      A dedicated bracket for the S70TY model* allows users to place the soundbar directly beneath the QNED TV for a refined appearance. This bracket provides a convenient solution for direct attachment, eliminating the need to drill holes in the wall during installation. The bracket allows customizable wall-mounting of the S70TY soundbar at various heights or locations, guaranteeing an aesthetically ideal setup, great convenience and an optimal sound experience.
      LG Triple Level Spatial Sound technology applies channel analysis through a 3D engine to mesmerize listeners with lifelike sound and a compelling sense of space. What’s more, LG AI Room Calibration – a feature praised by both consumers and experts for its audio enhancement – rapidly analyzes the environment of a room and adjusts the settings, enhancing the audio to harmonize with the room’s acoustics. New for 2024, the AI Room Calibration extends its capability to calibrate the audio of rear surround speakers, expanding audio immersion and offering more flexibility for installation.
      In 2024, LG also plans to introduce new editions of speakers and earbuds to the global market. Despite its compact design, the most recent XO2 model offers the authentic, omnidirectional audio of the LG XBOOM 360 speaker. Featuring a distinctive conical-cylindrical design, it radiates sound in all directions, ensuring consistent, high-quality audio enjoyment for everyone in the listening space.
