Q. What do you anticipate will be the most significant technology trend at the 2012 NAB Show?
Over the years, the NAB Show has become a central hub of advancing technologies that span various industries. Advancements in 3D technology have been very notable in the past few years, and I believe that these advancements will be asserted with the recent introduction of high frame rates for 3D content. As a company that has been actively involved in the early stages of high frame rate demonstrations, it is evident that a new era of 3D content is underway as advances in technology resolves current issues and a guideline for quality is established.
