German LCD maker HANNspree recently launched its Lounge TV 70 on International Funkausstellung Berlin 2011, which is announced as both a windows PC and a white board except for acting as a HDTV.

Once get well prepared, the users would then change channels, adjust volume sand choose movie titles simply via their brainwave.

Transparency is obviously a main trend of modern designs and we’ve come up with transparent cellphones, transparent shoes and transparent sculptures in the past few months. And soon we’ll see a transparent television.

Designed by Michael Friebe, the new TV set has a frameless glass surface and that has made it to completely bend into the environment when not in use. But when set to work, the television will produce “non-transparent / solid moving pictures with rich color reproduction and full contrast range from solid black to pristine white” as it utilizes a creative combination of conventional LCD and the latest TOLED display technology.
