Frame compatible 3DTV is the technology of choice for delivering 3DTV content to customer homes today, whether over satellite, cable or IPTV, because it is effectively an HDTV signal that can therefore use existing infrastructure and set-top boxes. ESPN is currently using discrete left- and right-eye HD signals from its event locations to its main broadcast facility in Bristol, Connecticut, which is converts to a frame compatible format for transport to its distribution partners.
However, ESPN wants to move another step forward and reach the point where it is delivering discrete left- and right-eye HD feeds all the way to its partners. Distribution partners can then create their own frame compatible broadcast or move towards any of the “full HD 3DTV” solutions that are currently being talked about.
