The BBC could screen some of the 2012 London Olympic games in 3D, a senior executive said this week.
Roger Mosey, the director of the BBC’s 2012 Olympics operation, said they were looking at a number of new technologies to improve the event for viewers. Although he said they weren’t considering covering the Olympics comprehensively in 3D – because the technology would not be widespread enough – they felt that they should at least be part of an experiment with what is believed will be one of the next big waves of change.
Mosey also said that “super high definition” cameras could also be used at Olympic sites, even though homes would not have the TVs that could translate SHD yet. However, there could be a limited number of cameras and big screens that will give a taste of the future, and could give a major creative boost to technologists and people thinking of the content of tomorrow.
Both 3D and super HD are currently keeping the creative juices flowing and with the way technology is moving these days, Mosey could be wrong and we could be way past these dreams by then!
