Japanese researchers from the NHK Science and Technical Research Laboratories have now developed the successor to HDTV presented: SHV. Wait a minute, successor?
Haven't we just come to terms with or become accustomed to HDTV?

4320 7680 x pixels

 

Even more pixels should ensure even more sharpness on screens. With a total of 4320 horizontal and 7680 vertical screen lines - that corresponds to 16 current HDTV images. One Resolution in this range would also provide for a 100-degree viewing angle. While HDTV can display a maximum of only 30 degrees.

However, the whole thing still has a small obstacle: A bandwidth of 24 gigabits per second is required for the transmission of the uncompressed SHV video signal. That would not be transferrable with today's commercial means

. Initial tests three years ago revealed a data volume of 18 terabytes for an 64-minute test film (recorded by a camera with a 3,5mm photo sensor).

The associated Ton is played in 22.2 format. This will be nine Loudspeakers placed in the ceiling area, ten are at head height, three on the floor and two Subwoofer provide the deepest tones.

SHV is also known as UHVD (Ultra High Definition Video). With 60 frames per second, it also lives up to the successor to IMAX-HD with 48 frames per second.

The first tests are to be carried out in time for the 2016 Olympic Games.
This new format should then be broadcast normally in 2025.
