Samsung TV Karaoke, Powered by Stingray Karaoke, Wins Prestigious CES Innovation Award in Content & Entertainment

MONTREAL, Jan. 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stingray (TSX: RAY.A; RAY.B), an industry leader in music and video content distribution, business services, and advertising solutions, is thrilled to announce that Samsung TV Karaoke, powered by the Stingray Karaoke app, has received the CES Innovation Award 2025 in the Content & Entertainment category. This award celebrates the innovative integration of the Stingray Karaoke app with Samsung's 2025 TVs, providing an exceptional karaoke experience directly in consumers' living rooms.

The Samsung TV Karaoke feature revolutionizes home entertainment by offering the world's first smart karaoke suite. This innovative solution eliminates the need for expensive microphones or sound systems. Users can simply sing into their mobile devices, and the app, driven by AI algorithms and vocal suppression technology, transforms any song into an instrumental track. The singer's voice is seamlessly mixed with sound effects and the music, all played through the TV speakers without any perceivable delay. Adding to the immersive experience, dynamic smart lights can be connected to sync with the vocals, creating the perfect karaoke atmosphere.

Karaoke fans can explore a vast library of over 100,000 licensed songs. The Stingray Karaoke app features an intuitive interface that enables users to search for songs by title, artist, lyrics, or genre in more than 30 languages. It offers various customization options, such as skipping, rewinding, and fast-forwarding songs, toggling background videos, and choosing to sing with or without lead vocals. With weekly updates adding new songs and specially curated playlists for different occasions, users can queue up to 100 songs, ensuring the ultimate karaoke party experience at home.

"Winning the CES Innovation Award is a testament to our commitment to pushing the boundaries of entertainment technology," said Eric Boyko, President, Co-founder, and CEO of Stingray.
