Getting interrupted during gaming usually means having to postpone your session, but the 'LUMI Split-box' device is intended to let users play a console on multiple screens and much more.

The 'LUMI Split-box' works by simply enabling users to split the functionality of their console to operate on more than one television. This will come in handy for family homes where a single television is used by multiple members of the family for entertainment. The 'LUMI Split-box' also lets users play a console by converting the split-screen experience for multiplayer games to be played on different television sets. This makes it possible to play a fairer game without having to worry that opponents will be simply looking at your screen section to gain a competitive advantage.
