It's not just super-slim OLED sets on LG's IFA agenda this year. The South Korean tech giants are also diving into the realm of connected TVs, and their newly-revealed Smart TV seems the most aptly named of the bunch.

The web-connected set features a dashboard-style UI that houses a number of apps. These include Facebook, Picasa and Youtube among others, all pretty standard fare for internet-savvy screens.

Things get interesting however when the Smart TVs Wii-style Magic Motion Remote Control gets involved. Poiting and clicking to control actions on screen rather than using a traditional television remote control scheme, it'll let you try your hand at Yoga and First Aid lessons onscreen, as well as mucking about with a colouring-book app, with more wand-friendly features on the way.

The set will also complete with LGs Media Link, syncing numerous devices to the screen. According to the LG press release, Media Link offers:

"Instant access to online videos and images; users can easily upload things they've created themselves. And with a smartphone, leaving the house doesn't mean missing one's favourite programme because content can be delivered wirelessly. Whether connecting to an iPad, PCs, personal media players or home theatre systems, LG is expanding the reach of entertainment to every part of people's lives".

It's been heralded as the future of flatscreen TVs, but OLED screens have so far been so small and expensive that they've remained something of a novelty. Until now that is. Details have leaked of an LG super OLED set that, whilst sure to still break the bank, is an impressive 31 inches as well as being 3D compatible.

At just 2.9mm thick it's quite literally a "cutting-edge" design, measuring up as the thinnest OLED screen on the market. Super smooth images will also be on show thanks to a 600Hz refresh rate, halving to a still-impressive 300Hz for 3D images.

However, with OLED screens half the size and without 3D smarts still sporting £1500 price tags, expect this set to remain the reserve of only the super-rich.

LG have confirmed that they will be displaying a 31 inch OLED TV at this year's IFA conference. It will be the largest that the company have produced so far, and while bigger examples exist from the likes of Samsung and Sony, the LG display could be unique in that it may make it to shops before the year is out.

OLED TVs, with their superior contrast ratios, minimal motion blur and svelte sizes, were hailed as the future for TVs when they first popped up on show floors a couple of years back. But the increasing quality of LCD TVs (not to mention the high pricing of OLEDs) has kept them quite the niche product.
