Press Release

FRANK WING ATTENDED 2007 NAB IN LAS VEGAS

 

Frank W. Wing of Fall River and President of WINGS Television, Inc. attended the National Association of Broadcasters Convention next week (April 15^th to the 19^th ) in Las Vegas.
This convention is the world's largest electronic media marketplace and features solutions across the entire media spectrum of content creation, management and delivery.  There were over 100,000 attendees from 146 different countries registered for this year’s 2007 NAB Convention.

 

Some of this year’s speakers at the Convention include Louisiana US Senator Mary L. Landriu;  Tim Russert, moderator of “Meet The Press”;   Chris Matthews, NBC & MSNBC Host;  Christianne Amanpour, CNN; Eric Schmidt, Chairman and CEO of Google, and Tom Rogers, President and CEO of TiVo.

Wings said that he saw Ultra-HD on a large I-MAX screen in 3-D.  Ultra-HD has resolution that is 16 times greater than the High Definition that has recently become available in stores and on the airways in this country   Wing said that he first saw High Definition (HD) back in 1994 at the NAB SHOW in Las Vegas and that it took over ten years before it became available to the general public in this country.   Wing said that he believed, most likely, it will take another ten years before Ultra-HD becomes available here also.  

One of the new products that was demonstrated this year and should be available sooner, Wing believes, is the new three-dimensional, high-definition (3D-HD) video format.  This format will be shown to the NAB Attendees in Las Vegas using highlights of the recent NBA All-Star Game that was also taped in 3D-HD.  This will also show them some of the incredible advancements in sports video production and broadcast that have recently been made.
Another interesting subject was all the advanced technology of the internet with streaming video etc. and what the impact will have on the radio, television, advertising, industry and on the public.
