I’ll be presenting “Future of TV-based Entertainment” at the SmartTV Global Summit 2010 next week.
For many years, the broadcasters determined what content was available and when on the TV. The last few years has seen an explosion of alternate sources of entertainment — IPTV that enables virtually an unlimited number of “channels” and whole-home DVR, personal content, on-line content, social networking, video calls, etc. The downside was that accessing all these capabilities required moving between the TV (with multiple set-top boxes) and the computer. Today, the industry is rapidly enabling the easy access of all the different kinds of content and features through the TV, along with new, innovative ways to find what you are looking for.

I’m currently in Shanghai at the 6th C3D World to present “Providing premium 3D video with post processing for CE and STB products”. Should be another great show, like the previous two.
