Each year, broadcasters and content owners lose billions of dollars in online piracy with illegal content. What are the latest technologies that can be used to protect against piracy? By adding a unique visual code to a TV show, known as a forensic watermark, content owners can track who they are using improperly. When it comes to content distribution, homeowners need to make sure they are protecting their valuable assets from pirate forms online.

THE ROAD TO DISRUPTIVE TV

There has been a lot of talk about the disruptive architecture of OTT devices and their effect on the current business model of free-to-air and closed (cable, satellite, etc.) TV.
On-boarded OTT devices range from Playstation Vue, Xbox 0NE, connected TV or Slingboxes, to Amazon Prime and the now infamous Netflix. We are witnessing a new wave of offers that should change, forever, the way we watch TV.
However, a glance at these new services quickly reveals a gap in the knowledge and how, so far, many companies have been unable to understand how people’s behavior and their expectations change.
This represents a huge lost opportunity. The transmission by streaming movement is of no interest to the man in the street; people don’t care how things reach them. They don’t care about the screen they’re connected to, all they care about is the experience.

Digital Terrestrial TV. Where are we going?

Digital Terrestrial TV. Where are we going?

The Japanese TV industry has a longstanding concern with image quality. It began in the 1970s, with the first HD TV research, going through the first broadcasts in HD in the late 1980s, still in the analog system, to the predicted to transmit 8K for much of the country's population as early as 2025. The first phase of this challenge is to reconcile the current digital broadcasting system with the 4k format. Let us present what Japanese commercial broadcasters are doing in this regard.

Chair: Fernando Bittencourt – International Director – SET

ISDB-TB Hybrid Transmission using ATSC 3.0 LDM and BICM

Current terrestrial digital TV systems are disruptive and require a new channel for operation. With the advent of Layered Division Multiplexing (LDM) it is possible to perform multi-layered transmission with different systems at the same time and at the same frequency just by adjusting the power level in each layer. This presentation will show a modification of the ISDB-TB system named LDM ISDB-TB in which the ISDB-TB system is transmitted in the main layer and the Bit Interleaved Coded Modulation (BICM) stage of ATSC 3.0 is transmitted in the enhanced layer. Computational simulations and laboratory tests show that it is possible to perform the ISDB-TB hybrid transmission and reception with the ATSC 3.0 BICM. This solution is an alternative way to introduce a new digital terrestrial TV broadcasting system while maintaining compatibility with the installed receiver park and using the same channel and transmission infrastructure.

The Power of Hackathons as an Open Innovation Strategy

The power of hackathons as an open innovation strategy

A growing number of segments are adopting strategies for open innovation, a methodology created in 2003 at the University of Berkeley for application in organizations seeking to foster ideas, processes and open research in order to improve their products and services, identify and take advantage of talent, become more efficient and to serve their clients better.
Among the different ways of using open innovation, Hackathons (programming marathons) have become very popular in recent years as a birthplace of innovative ideas such as prototypes, leading to transformational benefits for companies and institutions.
In this panel, we will get an insight into the experiences of four professionals from different areas with open innovation / hackathons, as well as an understanding of why the adoption of more centralized innovation models, focused on collaboration, has become fundamental for organizations in the world today.

Chair: José Salustiano Fagundes - CEO - HXD OTT Solutions

HACKATHON: You should go to one!

Why should you watch or take part in a hackathon?
The hackathon experience has shown itself to be strategic for those needing innovation!
Hackathons have created a huge opportunity for catalyzing the creation of big bang ideas, and they are becoming a common occurrence in Brazil at institutions and companies in various segments.
The challenge of putting to the test the efforts and agility of teams who, in a short space of time (usually between 24 and 72 hours), need to develop innovative functional prototypes, has become a major favorite among increasing numbers of participants from areas such as IT, design, management, marketing and communication, as well as entrepreneurs of start-ups.
In this presentation, we will describe a little of our experience with hackathons in recent years, demystifying them and encouraging their use within the broadcasting sector.

The importance of challenge and co-creation for innovation

When we see the word “innovation”, we immediately think of breaking ground in state-of-the-art, with feats such as a cancer vaccine or water-powered cars – this is Innovation with a capital “I”. But there is also iNNOVATION with a small ‘I’, which involves solving our day-to-day challenges. This iNNOVATION relies for support on technologies that already exist, but which are no less complex. Advocate of the slogan “less is more”, digital iNNOVATION in many cases involves complexity that can be resolved using a cell phone application, for example.
PUC-Rio applies the challenge-based learning (CBL) methodology with lean co-creation cycles in which multidisciplinary groups explore opportunities and come up with transformational solutions for different industries. In this talk, we will share some of these challenge-based experiments and their results.

Are we really on the path to convergence? Are free-to-air TV and TV on demand really the same?

Technological discourse tells us that very soon we will not notice the differences between linear TV and TV on demand. Many argue that viewers do not really care about which platform the content will be distributed on. Will this indeed be the case? What television model does Brazilian society really want? Will Artificial Intelligence affect Linear TV programming? These issues will be analyzed, checkmating the technological discourse of mediatic convergence which has been the roadmap for major global players and television station managers around the world, and which is putting the economic viability of TV channels in Brazil at risk.

How to think about content based on audience profiles

Every day, TV channels receive a huge volume of quantitative data about the performance of their products. However, this isolated information is not sufficient for answering questions like: Who was watching? Why were they watching? Why did they stop watching? Why does a certain content please more than others? Thinking about creating content in response to specific viewer demands, TV channels are paying more attention to the social, economic and cultural profiles of the public that consumes it. This variable points to a series of behaviors and preferences that can lead media content producers to make the right decisions regarding the choice of themes and approaches for their products

Transmedia mobilization and audience power

The growth of audience power within the context of convergent medias is a fundamental component that companies have to take note of, as its ability to impact the market continues to grow. Recently, mobilizations that seek to counter various prejudices have affected the production universe, some of them even asking for the cancellation of programs on streaming assistance platforms. That is why it is important to reflect on the possible ways forward for enabling production in accordance with the latent and actual demands of audiences.
