Cisco’s Immersive Television of the Future, Merging Broadband and High-Value Content

LAS VEGAS, January 7, 2013 - Cisco is demonstrating how immersive technologies of the near-future will include broadband television from a wall-screen display. The goal is to demonstrate a future use of its Videoscape Unity Platform, being launched here today. These technologies will integrate broadcast, social and user-generated-technology.

Here is an example of how the technology can be used by telecom service providers.

Panelists from Cox Communications, Liberty Global, BSkyB, Fox Broadcasting and Major League Baseball talk about "TV Everywhere," the complications of Digital Rights Management, and the way that the tablet (particularly the iPad) are influencing the broadband television environment.
