Super Hi-Vision at IBC 2010
The undoubted highlight of IBC in 2008 was the demonstration of Super Hi-Vision. It is returning to IBC again this year, even brighter and better than before.
Super Hi-Vision is a development of Japanese national broadcaster NHK, part of a global contribution to the debate on what happens next. As its name suggests, it is another leap forward from HD.
It has 16 times more resolution, to be precise: 7680 pixels wide by 4320 lines high, at 60 progressive frames a second. And if the picture is all embracing so too is the sound: 22.2 audio channels, including super-woofers front and back, speakers set at three heights, and a centre channel directly above the viewer.
New for 2010 are practical full-resolution cameras, with three image sensors each of 33 million pixels. One of these next generation cameras will be part of the demonstration at IBC where you will be able to appreciate the richness of the pictures. There will also be a camera in the centre of Amsterdam, sending live pictures back over fibre to IBC.
As well as the theatre with its high brightness projectors, you can also see Super Hi-Vision on special 58” diagonal plasma screens with 0.33mm pixel pitch for an incredibly detailed, seamless view.
Staff from NHK and its partners will be on hand throughout IBC to talk about the practical implementation of Super Hi-Vision for museums and galleries, town centre screens for major events, and eventually perhaps for broadcast to the home.
If you have not yet seen a Super Hi-Vision demonstration, you really should not miss it at IBC2010.
