For the very first time in the US, during CES 2008, mobile high-resolution live television programming is being delivered to display terminals in a moving vehicle on Las Vegas Bd., outfitted with DVB-SH receivers. As the DVB-SH satellite will be officially launched in March this year, this demonstration is using a land-based transmitter giving exactly the same kind of signal the public will be receiving in any major city once the system is up and running.
This long-awaited development in Mobile TV is an integral part of a whole suite of services set to be launched in 2008 by ICO, called ICO Mobile Interactive Media (ICO mim)… next-generation technology that will redefine how consumers access information, services and entertainment in a mobile environment.
