Samsung has announced its latest device, although
this one is a digital flipboard designed for businesses, the 2019 Samsung Flip. The new 2019 Samsung Flip was
recently shown off at InfoComm 2019 and it comes with a range of features.
The 2019 Samsung Flip is exceptional in its writing
recognition speed and it has no delay whatsoever. With improved recognition
speed compared to the previous Samsung Flip, the new product is the fastest in
the industry. It also delivers the feel of analogue in a digital environment
via the flip pen. For example, the wooden material flip pen provides the feel
of using a pencil. With this feature, users are able to write or draw on the
screen using the slim profile of a realistic pencil tool.
To support the ideation process in meetings, the pen
mode’s ability to recognize an object’s thickness provides four options – thin
pen, highlighter, finger eraser and palm eraser. The feature allows users to
have an analogue meeting environment as if they were using a real marker,
highlighter and eraser. Additionally, the new brush mode of the 2019 Samsung
Flip is another fresh and innovative concept. It emphasizes more detail by
allowing recognition touch on the display in 1,024 detailed levels. It even
recognizes the most delicate touch of a brush.
When you draw on the 2019 Samsung Flip display with
Brush mode, the screen recognizes the thickness of the brush you use. They are
all perfectly expressed on the display just like an analogue painting. Users can
experience two types of paint textures – oil painting and water painting.
For example, when you draw a blue line in the oil
painting mode and draw a yellow line on top, the two colors will be mixed where
they overlap each other. As if you were using real paint that had not dried
yet, the two colors will mix together into a green color, just like an oil
painting on a canvas. And if you click on the drying paint option and draw a
new line, the previous lines dry up and prevent any new colors from mixing
together.
The Note-Layer function allows you to freely take
notes on documents or pictures shown on the display. Utilizing the ‘Selection
Tool’ and ‘Merge to Roll’ functions make your image editing much easier. For
example, you can put an illustration on a roll and choose the ‘Selection Tool’
to cut out only the selected parts from the illustration. Then, you may choose
‘Merge to Roll’ to paste the cut-out images onto the roll. These images are
recognized as the same as the actual drawings, so you are free to delete the
background or edit the images.
If you click the upper portion of the display, it
will trigger the intuitive function icons for bringing data from a mobile
device, PC or USB to the Flip as well as sending completed work from the Flip
to email, printer, USB or network drive. This allows people who use the product
for the first time to move data with ease. Also, using the ‘To-Mobile’
function, which allows users to take advantage of the basic network storage
implemented in the Flip, you can check your completed work from the Flip
directly on your mobile device without sending the data through email or other
additional methods.
The screen share feature is also very useful. The
2019 Samsung Flip can be connected to a bigger display through the screen share
function when you need to deliver content to a big audience such as in a
large-scale lecture. You can use a wireless connection or you can use the
screen share terminal of the Connected Tray in front of the 2019 Samsung Flip
to connect the two displays using a HDMI cable. Samsung Flip was originally targeted
to architectural design offices and design companies where small-scale face to
face idea meetings are frequent. After launching the first product, it received
such high praise from the users. As they wanted to use the product in more
diverse areas, the 2019 Samsung Flip’s target has expanded to conglomerate
conference halls, large seminar rooms, schools and hotel conference rooms with
a larger 65-inch screen and various features.
The Flip also has the Remote PC function to follow
the recent office trend of working on remote desktop computers. The users can
access their own desktop or laptop computers from the Flip to view or edit
data, which can be seamlessly used in a meeting environment. Also, you can load
documents from your personal cloud space using Microsoft OneDrive, Office 365
and Web Browser that are going to be serviced in the Flip from September. The
2019 Samsung Flip is a reassuring partner in a digital meeting environment.
