SUNNYVALE, Calif. -- Feb. 23, 2006 -- In cities across the United States, Omneon Video Networks, Miranda Technologies, and Linear Acoustic will be presenting "HDTV: Making the Transition," a valuable educational seminar focusing on the factors driving the transition to HDTV, as well as the technologies underlying this significant shift within the global broadcast industry.
Each seminar will address the fundamental elements of working in HD, examine the key systems building blocks for HD broadcast infrastructures, and include case studies highlighting leading broadcasters' experiences in making the shift to HDTV. The first seminar will be held on Feb. 28 in New York City.
Omneon, Miranda, and Linear Acoustic have designed "HDTV: Making the Transition" to help engineers face new technology transition challenges as HDTV is introduced across the globe. During the seminar, engineers from all three companies will take an in-depth look at the drivers for HD from consumers and broadcasters; review the fundamentals of video and audio formats for HDTV; explore distribution, routing, conversion, editing, servers, and master control systems; and then turn the discussion toward practical implementation of HDTV and its realities.
In addition to the Feb. 28 seminar, the three companies will host events in Los Angeles on May 23; Washington, D.C. on June 27; Chicago on Sept. 26; San Francisco on Oct. 24; Seattle on Oct. 26; and Miami on Nov. 28. A small attendance fee will be charged for this non-promotional event to cover lunch and materials.
