Enjoying the unique world view of Razer's exhibition booth is one of the real pleasures of CES.
In the past, Razer has had oversized keyboards, 3-screen laptops (Project Valerie), glowing gaming masks (Project Hazler, and Project Zephyr Pro powering it up at CES this year), and a lot more this year too. And the avant-garde guy did it!
"Project Sophia" is a concept model of a gaming desk with 13 individual modules. It is a unique concept that can be customized according to the user's taste by changing the position of each module. It's like Tron. Hardware that is expected to be compatible includes secondary screens, system monitoring tools, touchscreen hotkey panels, pen tablets and external capture cards.
If you're a DJ, for example, you can arrange your audio mixer, tablet, and surround sound system at your convenience. If you're a digital artist, place a touchscreen digitizer and photo editing module. If you want to stream, you could attach a camera, microphone, and controller to your desk.
“Project Sophia is our vision for the future, addressing the various needs of PC users such as gaming and workstations, eliminating the need to move workspaces.With a hot-swappable modular system, users With endless flexibility, you can quickly reconfigure your desk," said Richard Hashim, Razer's vice president of growth.
In case you're wondering how it works, Razer packs a board with "the latest Intel CPU and Nvidia GPU" into a slim chassis that attaches magnetically to the underside of the glass top. It seems to be a specification. When it gets old, the chassis can be quickly removed and replaced. Also, a 65-inch organic EL panel is connected to the back of the desk, which is also a kind of monitor.
Of course, it's a Razer, so it lights up in seven colors. You can make the outline of each module glow with your favorite hue. However, it is assumed that the hardware module you want to use will fit neatly and you will be using it on a flat surface, so there is no need to add an angle. In the first place, the desk is too big, so there is still the question of how many people can use it practically. It's also the fun of.
Gaming chair “Enki Pro Hypersense” announced at the same time
A new concept gaming chair “Enki Pro HyperSense” was also released at the same time. Designed to give you a more immersive experience while playing games or watching videos.
This chair is still in the concept stage. 2,200 games, movies, TV shows such as "Forza Horizon 5", "F1 2021", "Assassin's Creed Valhalla", etc. , Netflix, Disney+, and Amazon Prime appear to be supported.
Razer says you can get tactile feedback in games that aren't directly supported by software using Direct Input Haptics, as well as controller, keyboard, and mouse input. For example, you can hear gunshots while playing an old shooter game.
Made of synthetic leather, headrest with RGB lighting (again Razer here), cushioned backrest, lumbar support and more.
