LG is showing what it expects to be the future of TV at CES 2017, with a whole host of fantastical screen technology on show.

LG's panel company, LG Display, isn't only concerned with screen technology, as the company's "Crystal Sound OLED" television demonstrates.

This technology embeds a sound system in the panel itself, which it says makes for a more immersive experience. The sound is projected as if coming directly from the characters, rather than "off-centre sound from speakers", according to LG. These displays will come in 55in and 65in models.

Wow! LG's new flagship W7 'Wallpaper' OLED TV is just 2.57mm thin and sticks to the wall with magnets #CES2017 https://t.co/4SddCpDrMD pic.twitter.com/YWFRxOaT9R
