JEDI : Just Explore Dimension Co-summit 2012, 30-31 October 2012, Paris Issa RAKHODAI Agenda Why an ITEA2 project on 3DTV Scene setting in 2009: Market & SOTA JEDI: Objectives, partners & challenges Where are we 3 years later How the market & SOTA evolved JEDI results & achievements 3DTV an option for the future Conclusion http://www.jedi-itea2.org ITEA 2-2 1
Why an ITEA2 project on 3DTV Scene setting at JEDI PO (2009) More than evolution: the 3DTV is rather a revolution Huge potential market: 3% to15% of installed TV base in 2015 Bad user experience could delay the market take off 3D B & W Color HD ITEA 2-3 Why an ITEA2 project on 3DTV State of the art in late 2009 Few glassless solutions, far from deployment Stereoscopic with active or passive glasses Broadcast: Proprietary, half resolution side by side Blu-ray 3D: Stereoscopic full resolution per eye in MVC Broadcast Blu-ray 3D ITEA 2-4 2
JEDI an ITEA2 3DTV project for consumer Project Goals & Calendar Bring Blu-ray 3D quality at broadcast Capture & Processing Coding & Compression Set-up a high quality Stereoscopic system Perform evaluation of quality and acceptance Understand how 3D TV for consumers shall evolve Transport & Signaling Viewing & Viewers Decoding, UI Interface to Display JEDI project started in May 2010 for two years ITEA 2-5 JEDI an ITEA2 3DTV project for consumer Project Consortium Pace, NDS, NXP, Technicolor, Thomson VN, Trinnov audio, UdN, Vitec Multimedia Barco, Philips, Telenet, VideoHouse, VRT PlanetMedia, ALU D4D, Hispasat, SAPEC, TSA, UNIZAR, UPM JEDI is 21 partners over 3 countries ITEA 2-6 3
JEDI an ITEA2 3DTV project for consumer Project Challenges Setting up an end-to-end high quality stereoscopic 3DTV chain for consumer Content Delivery: Acquisition, Processing, Coding, Insertion Rendering & Display: Decoding, Connectivity, 2D-3D Switch Graphic & Overlay: User interface User Experience ITEA 2-7 Where are we 3 years later? 4

During the ITEA2 final review we demonstrated a transmission of DVB-Phase 2a, specified only 2 weeks earlier by DVB IBC 2012 - International Broadcasting Convention JEDI signal & demo at DVB booth JEDI signal & demo at Hispasat & Sapec booths ITEA 2-14 7
Dissemination Publications, Products 55+ papers, journal entries, presentations or articles 4 patents filed and published +20 new products and solutions over the value chain a 3D Lab with +30 exploitation cases ITEA 2-15 Synthesis Examples of Market & Industry potential Barco: Further developments of new product offering for 3D viewing in professional markets such as Broadcasting, Rental & staging, V&AR, Control room and simulation NDS (now part of CISCO): By deliver differentiating technologies to our pay-tv operators customers, enable some pioneer in the field (Sky, Vodafone, ). ALCATEL-LUCENT: Integrate the achievements obtained during the project in its IPTV products portfolio Planet Media: integrating interactive 3D know-how with its customers and enhancing its software portfolio with 3D technology Pace: Lesson learned in JEDI allows Pace to propose High End STBs for DVB Phase 2a and prepare the Ultra-HD as the next step for both 2D and 3DTV ITEA 2-16 8
Synthesis Next Challenges 3D can bring real emotion, quality is the key 3D content creation and production is radically different from 2D 2D and 3D content will co-exist for a long time Glassless viewing technology is a key factor for acceptance Until then, 3DTV will remain rather event driven Higher frame rate & resolution bring excellent 3D impression & comfort Digital TV & Display technologies provide now the basis to carry on with constant improvement, bringing 3D as a given aspect of TV as it happened for stereo sound and colour in the past JEDI will be the basis for 3D experiences in UltraHD as a next step ITEA 2-17 3DTV an option for the future Our consolidated view within JEDI TV & Display technology roadmap: technique usage Early 1900 s Mid 1900 s End 1900 s 2012 Next Ultra-HD: 4K & 8K 3DTV /JEDI DTV-SD/HD SD Color SD B&W Future 3D developments will benefit from the JEDI results ITEA 2-18 9
Conclusion: Ready for the Future! Conclusion Ready for the future We mastered the complete end to end chain Bringing Blu-ray 3D quality to broadcast A world-premiere transmission DVB Phase 2a for Service Compatible 3DTV JEDI demo at IBC 2012 On DVB booth, Hispasat & Sapec booths Our consolidated view: 3DTV is an option for the future We are ready for the challenge thanks to JEDI!!!
