Razer Unveils New In-room Projection System and Project Valerie Laptop With Three 4K Displays at CES 2017

Razer is showcasing its highly distinctive concept laptop Project Valerie at the on-going CES 2017, which features not one, but 17.3-inch 4K IGZO displays powered by Nvidia's G-Sync technology for wider viewing angles as well as smoother frame rates. The company also went on to reveal its "total immersion gaming" projection system Project Ariana.

If the fact that Razer's concept laptop features three 17.3-inch high-resolution displays doesn't hinder you, the company has even claimed that it offers 100% Adobe RGB color accuracy. The company says that it offers "the greatest amount of screen real estate ever assembled in a single computer." The concept laptop features GTX 1080 GPU, just like the Razer Blade Pro laptop.

The laptop is housed in a CNC unibody aluminium chassis, measuring 1.5-inches thick and weighing nothing more than 5.4kg. "Each display mechanically slides out of the side of the main screen and adjusts into place, making it easy for users to deploy. With integrated multi-monitor support, users will no longer have to deal with the cable clutter from traditional desktop setups. The result is a clean gaming and working environment that's just as easy to maintain," the company said in its press release.

Razer hasn't shared the specific details about the hardware present on the concept laptop, but the company said that it exceeds the minimum hardware requirements for VR on the HTC Vive or the Oculus Rift VR headsets. Project Valerie is the second Razer laptop to have Razer's "Ultra-Low-Profile Mechanical switches" as well.

"Multi-monitor desktop setups are becoming more necessary for professionals, creators, and gamers," Min-Liang Tan, co-founder and CEO, Razer quoted in company's release. "For the first time, we've engineered a solution that users can take with them. Project Valerie promises all of the functionality of three screens and none of the hassle," he added.

Razer also unveiled its Project Ariana projection system, a high-definition video projector that makes use of an ultra-wide fisheye lens and advanced processing capabilities to extend the gaming experience into an entire room, the company said. "The system adapts the projection of in-game elements to the dimensions and features of the physical environment. A pair of 3D depth sensing cameras together with proprietary calibration software automatically calibrates itself to detect environmental factors such as furniture and room lighting, to provide the perfect display for any room," the company said in the release.

Razer further announced that its lighting technology, Razer Chroma, will now also be available to third-party partners. It will be interesting to see how the future of gaming is shaped going forward by the new technologies the company has introduced at CES 2017.
