LG HAUSYS' NEW TECHTOP EMBEDDED SURFACE SOLUTION ENTERS COMMERCIAL MARKET This year at NeoCon, LG Hausys, a sur- facing material manufacturer, will unveil TechTop, a wireless charging solution offering true convenience and mobility. LG Hausys is the first manufacturer to have this technology available for poten- tial commercial customers. During NeoCon, the company will offer a preview of TechTop and demon- strate the value of this new technology within the commercial community. LG Hausys will embed TechTop into HI- MACS surface applications, allowing users to charge their mobile device by simply placing it on top of the embedded surface. No more searching for the right cable or an elusive wall outlet. "TechTop is a surface with wireless charging capabilities. The technology is seamlessly embedded into the HIMACS surface with a single hidden connection to the outlet," says Bongsoo Kim, CEO. "It is an easy and safe solution to enjoy the benefits of wireless charging technol- ogy, so that people can stay connected at the right times." TechTop utilizes Qi inductive charg- ing technology – the universal standard for wireless charging of battery operated mobile devices. Electricity is transmitted wirelessly by way of electromagnetic fields instead of cables. HI-MACS sur- face holds a transmitter coil that gener- ates a magnetic field through an alternat- ing current. The field resonates with the receiver (in this case, a mobile device) and induces voltage up to 5 watts as of current. TechTop surface-embedded wireless charging maintains a safe trans- fer of power thanks to its built-in high voltage and overheating detection. Without an exposed conductor there is minimal risk of fire hazard or electric shock. LG Hausys is initially focusing on the hospitality and retail sectors. Because the technology is so versatile, the compa- ny hopes to expand into other sectors such as entertainment venues and educa- tional institutions as the wireless charg- ing technology develops. The market for compatible devices is endlessly growing. More and more cellular carriers, includ- ing Verizon, are adopting wireless charg- ing technology while it is compatible with Sprint and T-Mobile. About LG Hausys LG Hausys is dedicated to creating ele- gant and beautiful spaces with stylish, human-friendly designs. The entire range of HI-MACS nearly unlimited color options and particulate patterns can con- tribute to sustainable LEED building projects with certification from GREEN- GUARD Indoor Air Quality and GREENGUARD for Children & Schools certification as low-emitting interior materials. Made in the U.S.A., the HI- MACS collection can contribute to LEED building projects in several ways under the Materials and Resources cate- gory. Visit LG Hausys at booth 4102.

ELEVATE AND DIFFERENTIATE WITH WHOLE HOME AUDIO By Walter Zerbe, Product Manager, NuVo & On-Q, Legrand A home is more than just a building. It's the accumulation of a thousand other details that add up to a family feeling safe and secure, comfortable and enjoying their life within their own personal space. It is often these particular features that can set a house apart and differentiate you as a builder. One such differentiating detail is home audio. Wanting music in the home is an increasingly popular demand, and there is no shortage of options: Bluetooth speakers, Airplay, full homerun wired systems, wireless hybrid systems and more. But for builders looking to provide their customers with whole home audio that offers the perfect blend of depend- ability, convenience and flexibility in the latest listening options? Well, then the options become fewer. From conception, the NuVo Audio System was developed to answer those specific demands, while maintaining a simplicity that makes it easy to install and use. Starting with a unique modular design that lets a system be custom-built one zone at a time, this solution delivers the highest quality music to up to 16 simultaneous zones. Comprised of a series of interchangeable and compatible zone players, the system connects to a home's network for instant access to per- sonal digital libraries, including all of your iTunes content, while also accessing popular online streaming services such as Pandora, Rhapsody and SiriusXM. The NuVo Gateway ties the system together, connecting directly to a home's router and managing all the wireless communi- cation between the players, while free intuitive and aesthetic apps allow cus- tomers to use the devices they already love to control the home's music systems from the palm of their hand. There are currently four players avail- able with varying levels of power and fea- tures; the main difference is that the P100 and P200 can be installed into the home wireless while the P3100 and P3500 can be installed in new constructions via homerun CAT5 and speaker wire. All four zone play- ers can work in conjunction with one another, or independently for a unique wired/wireless solution that offers the latest in built-in streaming source variety. The mix-and-match nature of these players means any home can have a system that precisely fits the size, layout and special needs of the structure, while also meeting all the desires of the family who live inside. Plus, the system's flexibility extends to unprecedented variety. In addition to the home's network and Internet Radio accessibility, the players offer a USB port, allowing direct playback from any USB compatible drive, as well as analog inputs. The P200 is also equipped with aptX ® Bluetooth technology, allowing content from mobile devices to be enjoyed through the system. A limitless gallery of high-fidelity music is suddenly at your customers' fin- gertips, through a system that installs without extensive labor or programming on your end. Flexible and feature-rich, the NuVo Audio System promises a supe- rior audio performance and a customiz- able solution, so that you and your homes can stand out.
