Eizo Nanao Technologies Inc. announced a new monitor today, the FORIS FS2333, a 23-inch full high-definition (1920 x 1080 native resolution) home entertainment monitor.
The unique feature with the FORIS FS2333 is the all-new tone mapping technology called “Smart Insight†with five settings for RTS (real time strategy) and FPS (first person shooter) games that Eizo co-developed with Fnatic, one of the world’s leading professional esports teams.
Smart Insight automatically identifies dark areas of an image and improves visibility. Important details in the shadows such as the location of an opponent become easier to spot so gamers can react more quickly. Because Smart Insight uses tone mapping, it improves visibility in dark areas while preserving image details without reducing contrast.
In addition to Smart Insight, the FORIS also includes Smart Resolution and Smart Detection. Smart Resolution is Eizo’s own super-resolution technology that analyzes an image for noise and blur and then corrects the blur without accentuating the noise. This feature is “Smart†because it adjusts only those areas where it is needed. It even distinguishes skin tones and text from other content and optimizes how they are displayed. Smart Detection identifies where on the screen a video or game is being played and applies super-resolution processing to sharpen the image while leaving other areas untouched.
The FORIS FS2333 begins shipping in August. Stay tuned as we learn more about this new monitor!
