HD is Dead

:shocked:
24 gigs a second!

Sweet.

It'll be interesting to see what we'll be using 20 years from now.

At the IFA 2003 the Fraunhofer Institute (Germany) presented a system, consisting of 3 HDTV-tuners for 1 complete Ultra High Definition TV-picture:

HDTV had to wait 35 years in Europe to finally get the new standard - and yet it isn't... so how long will it take to introduce the next generation? - Let's say that HDTV is standard in USA and Europe now and hundreds of million people get used to it during the next 30 years - then the next standard gets introduced slowly... I don't think my dotery eyes will recognize any TV-picture anymore in 2035...

Possible other solution:
1) HDTV just stays standard for broadcast for about 30 years
2) but TV-sets have more and more a much higher resolution than HDTV
3) either generated pictures (computer animations, videos sticked together for more resolution, etc.) or newer cameras will just have a higher resolution and NO standard is needed, as anybody just enjoys any resolution on the screen of his own. Just Broadcast goes on with standards and that's HDTV until 2035.

What will the world look like in 2035?

That's exactly what I was thinking when I read this -- my children will be able to use it, but by then my brain will already be bathed in liquid nitrogen.
 
Wow I wonder when panasonic will have a Super Hi Camera? They may be and the end of the letter scheme ...lol.. Maybe a ZZZ-999 with a z-2 holographic disk storage capable of holding 5 teraflops for the low low price of $2.4 million.. Cheapest Super Hi Vision cam on the market... :evil:

2.4 million dollar? From Internet perhaps.... I still pay the list price of 3 million and 2% rebate if I pay per telepathically...

Our children will laugh when we tell that our cameras had 3 chips... They will say: "3 Chips? Even my first camera had 2 billion nano-chips and had still a dynamic range twice as good as the human eye! It shot high-reality color-pictures with 0 Lux!" The cameras will be that light and small, that they will have magnetic gravity simulators inbuilt, so you have the impression that it's 8 pounds (for stability) and if you're tired, you just reduce the gravity simulation and the magnets will reduce to camera weight as you wish... The camera will record on an in-built chip that can store up to 2 billion hours of "S-HDTV-3". Put it near any screen and footage can be watched without cable-connections...

And the most actual video-magazine will have an included holographic disc: "This month: Free Holo-Disc with All official movies from 1880-2040 im X-MPEG398"
 
That is completely insane! Can you imagine the computer able to handle this in realtime? Realtime CC, multistream, etc, etc, We would be comparing today's fastest computers to the Timex Sinclair! Remember that? :beer:
 
If only this sort of scientific research were being put into scripts so that we would have something interesting to look at with so much clarity...

There's no single grain of science left in the mentioned article, and that's why some people start joking here about this theme... (I don't exclude myself...).
 
My guess is this technology won't be available for at least another decade... maybe two.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe JBC developed HD video back in like... 1978? And it took nearly 30 years for it to become diffused into the market.

I'm assuming technological turnaround has improved over the years, but if companies are pushing HDTV so hard right now, the buyers of these TV's will not want to switch over to this new technology so eagerly.

Just my two cents.

The way LCD sizes are growing every year, it's only a matter of time when they're wall sized. The resolution will be handy.
 
wow, that's pretty amazing! But I will say it again, its now just a matter of coming up with a muthaphucken concept! A good story will go farther than technology!

It was 1975 when NHK introduced 16:9 HDTV with 1125 lines but the funny thing is, that we are talking about NHK AGAIN in the first article of this thread... so it really is possible, that this one will get another standard...... in 30 years! :laugh: (That's why I was always talking about 30 years).

The next possible step now could be that HD-devices will get the cell-chip. The cell-chip is already in Playstation 3 and it's just made for a much better computing performance. A cell-chip with 8 cores would reach 16 Teraflops, that's half the performance of the earth-simulator as I think to remember... (might be not exact...).

As the computing strength won't stop growing fast, and HDTV will stay the TV-standard for the next decades, within 8 years, nobody will question PC-performance and NLE for HD anymore.

That's why they'll simply bypass the eye along with all of the other external senses on the body and directly connect with the brain in order to maximize the experience without our stupid little eyes and ears getting in the way. And hey, wuddya know...Sony's already got a patent
Strange Days are here again...

Oh soo very true (even HDV :laugh: ) But I recon it will be much sooner then 8 years! Remember when it was hell to get the right computing power just to edit DV? Now, any mom, pop, and Joe Sixpacks can edit DV with anything bought at Best Buy.
