Samsung Electronics said on the 19th that it supplied a large number of TVs and smart signage to the world's largest cruise ship, "Star of the Seas."
Star of the Seas, operated by global shipping company "Royal Caribbean Cruises," weighs 258,000 tons and is 365 meters long, about five times larger than the Titanic.
Samsung Electronics installed about 6,000 TVs and smart signage units not only in 2,805 guest cabins and crew rooms on Star of the Seas but also in onboard facilities such as lounges and theaters.
Samsung Electronics said the TVs supplied to guest cabins, crew rooms, and other areas are commercial Crystal UHD models that offer clarity expressing 1 billion colors.
In addition, smart signage that can be used 24 hours a day is installed in key facilities such as the fitness center and restaurants to deliver a variety of information in real time.
Since 2004, Samsung Electronics has supplied more than 200,000 TVs and signage units to 28 cruise ships owned by Royal Caribbean Cruises.
Chung Hoon, vice president of the Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics, said, "We will work to innovate digital experiences inside ships so that travelers can enjoy a more diverse travel experience."
