New Technology Brings Concerts And Other Entertainment To The Big Screen Via Internet - Also Brings High Quality Digital Video And Better Audio

January 2003 (Newstream) -- The Internet is going Hollywood and ready to make its silver screen debut.

Via the Internet, concerts and other entertainment could be coming soon to your local movie theater thanks to new technology. The technology provides high quality theater-screen size digital video and audio that is better than anything available in theaters today.

The innovative video and audio technology from the Integrated Media Systems Center (IMSC) at the University of Southern California (USC) was demonstrated to 500 top Internet researchers in a recent event on the USC campus in Los Angeles. The audience saw a concert over the Internet of a previously recorded segment by the New World Symphony of Miami Beach on a 30-foot theater screen in USC's Bing Theater.

Movie theaters and other businesses can access high-speed network services now and potentially employ this new technology. And with many movie theaters converting to digital systems and high-speed networks rapidly expanding, that Internet could be coming soon to a theater near you.
