LG's LX9500 is the world's first LED 3D TV unveiled yesterday.

The LX9500 has a thickness of only 22.3mm and bezel of just 16mm.

SHOWCASE: LG Electronics has unveiled the world’s first LED 3D TV in the form of the LX9500 in Seoul, South Korea yesterday, and they will be available in 47- and 55-inch versions.

The LX9500 employs a backlight structure where LED panels illuminate from directly behind the screen (the 55-inch model has 1,200 LEDs). It is complemented by a 10,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio and TruMotion 400Hz (480Hz), which translates into the LX9500’s mesmerizing 3D picture.

It is also slim thanks to its INFINIA design. At only 22.3mm thick, the LX9500 also has a 16mm super-narrow bezel.

Of course, like any 3D TVs, the LX9500 requires shutter glasses (model: AG-S100). The glasses can be recharged via USB for up to 40 hours of viewing pleasure.

T&A: Bill Gates has formed a partnership with Toshiba in a bid to research, develop and produce compact nuclear reactors called a travelling-wave reactor, this according to reports from various sources, including Forbes, FoxNews and Reuters.

With Gates funding a company called TerraPower, the firm will work with Toshiba to it provides a cheaper, safer and alternative solution to clean energy as opposed to typical fission nuclear reactors. While the news has gotten many energy experts and journalists excited, according to some sources, the process will take between 5-10 years before we’ll even be able to see a working commercialized unit. Let’s hope the prototype comes out sooner then.

Meanwhile, here’s Gates talking up clean energy for the planet during his speech at TED in February earlier this year.
