About the Conference
Television brought a revolution and changed
the size of the world in which we live. Today, the transition
from standard definition to high definition television is changing
the world again. We are at the beginning of a monumental technology
change in television technology. It will be completely different
in FIVE years. How can YOU participate in the Revolution?
Research and development are rapidly bringing
amazing new home entertainment technology to consumers everywhere.
The world is watching the development of HDTV in the US. Some
experts believe the outcome of the transition to HDTV will have
a significant impact on the world economy, particularly in Asia.
Consumer electronics companies are on board in support of this
digital transition. The outcome is inevitable. HDTV will
be in the homes of consumers around the world, but when? Many
are looking to the United States to declare that the HDTV trial
period is over - but is it? These and other questions will be
addressed at this two-day event, which brings together key executives
throughout the TV food chain.
Sessions will cover the following topics
- The Status and Outlook for HDTV
- HDTV Content: When is it Coming?
- HDTV Distribution: Broadcast, Cable or
Satellite?
- Selling HDTV to Consumers
- Positioning the HDTV Product Line by Technology
- Front Projection HDTV: Will It Dominate
the Projection Segment?
- Rear Projection HDTV: LCD, DLP, LCOS or
CRT?
- Projection Engine Challenges
- Will LCDs Be the Dominant TV of the Future?
- How Fast Will PDPs Grow?
- Will the CRT Survive the HDTV Era?
- HDTV Electronics: Converging from TV Monitors
and Projectors
- Alternative Big-Screen Displays: Can Any
Challenge?
The updated agenda can be viewed at:
