At this year’s CES, Razer unveiled the latest showcase of its products for 2024, including the Project Esther concept with Razer Sensa HD Haptics, new gaming chairs, and more.
In 2024, Razer revealed the debut of the Razer Sensa HD Haptics with the Project Esther concept, as well as new additions to the Razer Gamer Room line, and more.
Razer Sensa HD Haptics with Project Esther
For this CES 2024, Razer has revealed the world’s first HD Haptics Gaming Cushion with the Razer Sense HD Haptics as showcased through Project Esther.
In 2018, Razer’s Nari Ultimate was introduced with the Razer HyperSense haptics via wideband Voice-Coil Actuators and advanced Digital Signal Processing.
The company then acquired Interhaptics in 2022, the leading haptics development platform for game studios.
Now in 2024, Razer Sensa HD Haptics is said to push the boundaries of haptics further with a software-device integrated platform using Interhaptics technology, allowing for greater developer customization.
Project Esther, as mentioned, is the world’s first HD Haptics Gaming Cushion, capable of delivering complex and realistic tactile sensations with 16 Haptic actuators.
It will also offer Razer HyperSpeed Wireless, allowing ultra-low latency for gaming and seamless media content enjoyment from compatible devices.
Razer Iskur V2 Gaming Chair
In 2024, the Razer gaming chairs return with the Razer Iskur V2, distinguishable with a 6D Adjustable and Adaptive Lumbar Support System, offering adaptability and adjustability, designed to conform to the natural curvature of its user’s spine.
The Razer Iskur V2 also features high-density foam cushions, a reactive seat tilt, and up to 152-degree recline functionality with EPU-grade synthetic leather.
“The Razer Iskur V2 is the best gaming chair on the market, and I highly recommend it to all gamers,” stated Dr Matthew Hwu, founder of the 1HP organization.
Razer Aether Monitor Light Bar
The latest addition to the Aether Gamer Room collection, this light bar features dual lighting with both front-facing and rear-facing LEDs, standing out with its ultra-high Color Rendering Index (CRI) of 95, providing vivid and natural lighting across a substantial area, measured at 60cm x 30cm at 500 Lux.
The Razer Aether Monitor Light Bar also features Razer Chroma RGB with over 16.8 million colors and a myriad of lighting effects.
It is also designed to work with all other smart home devices and controllers supported by Matter.
