3D HDTV without glasses? Hitachi has a prototype display for that.
--> keep in mind PVHO has a way better / competitive product
If we’re going to have to put up with 3D being the next big thing in HDTVs, the least we can hope for is that we’re not stuck wearing those plastic glasses on our sofas for the next 50 years. While that’s exactly what Panasonic and other 3D proponents are pushing with their new sets and services, there are a few promising signs that 3D will be possible without donning special specs.
Hitachi is at work on a glasses-free solution, and recently displayed a 10-inch version at the CEATEC trade show in Japan. The Full Parallax 3D TV uses 16 projectors with 800×600 resolution and a special lens array sheet to create the perception of depth without special eye wear, though the display currently tops at a meager 640×480 (VGA) resolution. The low resolution is the result of having to provide multiple viewpoints of the image—the good news is that it permits viewing from any angle. In the future, the plan is to combine in one set to create a 4k image (which is roughly twice four times the resolution of 1080p HD).
Of course, the bad news is that there’s no time line for when the company can produce a set that’s bigger than a netbook display. On the other hand, I’m confident plenty of people will be waiting for a glasses-free option before getting excited about 3D on their HDTV. Read more at: http://blogs.zdnet.com/home-theater/?p=1724

The Future of HDTV: 3D Holograms You Can Reach Out and Touch?
Ready to reach out and touch someone famous? Perhaps scientists at the University of Tokyo had Heidi Klum in mind when developing their new holographic projector.
Yes -- must-see 3D may soon have a "touchable" component as well. Unfortunately, the new projector doesn't actually allow you to grope some of your favorite TV stars -- at least not yet. However, it does allow for interaction and tactile feedback, which is pretty darn cool.
If that isn't interesting enough, you might want to know that the new projector was cobbled from a holographic display device, two Wiimotes and an ultrasound unit. Sounds like a high-tech MacGyver at work!
"Our objective is adding tactile feedback to the hovering image in 3D free space," says researcher Takayuki Hoshi. He and the rest of the team explain how the whole thing works in notes titled, "Touchable Holography."

Strategically, you’ll notice in our pending press releases that Provision is expanding their ‘reach’ by integrating our 3D digital media platform with a mobile marketing platform with an unannounced strategic alliance. This article talks about the reasons why we’re pursuing it.
Mobility's Impact on Digital Signage
The convergence of digital signage with smartphones will enable digital signage operators to actively monitor viewership, and at the same time, help shape the viewership experience on a personal level. Click to continue...
The Impact of Digital Signage on In-Store Decision-Making
While the oft-cited rule that 70 percent of purchase decisions are made in the store is a myth, there remains plenty of research to support the role of dynamic digital signage in influencing sales. Click to continue...

Hispanic Advertising: Supermarkets
--> CEO said they are moving rapidly to target these markets, and will mention it in the Conference Call
Hispanic Market Weekly
Published: February 19, 2009
Growing population figures plus increased buying power and a taste for the flavors of home have made U.S. Hispanics prime targets for marketing efforts from supermarkets. From large scale national operators to regional chains tailored to Latino consumers, supermarkets invested millions – albeit for many less than in years past - in Spanish-language efforts.
In the first nine months of 2008, supermarket chains throughout the U.S. invested $36.7 million on Hispanic-focused advertising, according to data from Nielsen Monitor-Plus. That followed a total investment of $55 million in 2007.
Spot television and spot radio were the media vehicles of choice for regional and local supermarket chains looking to reach Latino consumers. Only one retailer, Florida-based Publix Super Markets – invested heavily in local newspapers and national Spanish-language magazines.
The Hispanic consumer market in the U.S. drives $34 billion in consumer packaged goods spending today - a number that is projected to grow to $52 billion by 2015. Additionally, research reveals that U.S. Latinos go to the grocery an average of 26 times per month- three times more than the general population- and they also spend more money per trip.

The next dimension in home viewing
Source: From today's Globe and Mail (Canada's largest national newspaper)
Nicholas Routhier, chief executive officer of Sensio Technologies Inc. Christinne Muschi
The 3-D trend is moving to televisions, DVD players and video games. A Montreal company aims to get in on the action
If the big names in home entertainment have their way, TV viewers everywhere are going to need glasses.
It's already happened in the theatres: Audiences have donned Elvis Costello-esque specs and forked out $3 extra per ticket to see 3-D releases such as Up , Monsters vs. Aliens and Ice Age . Soon, the industry plans to bring the trend home with new televisions, DVD players and video games.
But there's a technological challenge to bringing three-dimensional images into the living room, one that a Montreal company hopes it can make a small fortune from – if it can get electronics manufacturers to buy into its solution.
3-D works by showing the viewer two superimposed images. The glasses assign one image to the right eye and one to the left, creating the illusion of real depth. It's easily done in theatres, thanks to a special box attached to the projector that processes the movie.
But traditional TV infrastructure is made for only one image at a time. If 3-D television is going to succeed, manufacturers will have to figure out how to broadcast a 3-D image over airwaves built for two dimensions, or through DVD wires built for just one feed.
That's where Nicholas Routhier comes in. The company he runs, Sensio Technologies Inc., (SIO-X1.52-0.16-9.52%) has spent 10 years preparing for this moment, developing compression technology that squeezes two feeds into one and splits them again at the other end, to make home entertainment work in all dimensions.
The company has already scored a deal to encode 3-D for the Avatar video game.
Ubisoft Entertainment SA is launching the game alongside the release of James Cameron's 3-D epic in December – the most expensive movie ever made. Sensio is eyeing DVD releases next.
“These guys want to do the releases for next year, 2010. And we're going to be out there,” Mr. Routhier said.
The possibility for 3-D technology in consumers' living rooms isn't far off. Last year, the chief executive officer of DreamWorks SKG, Jeffrey Katzenberg, announced the studio's animation releases would all be in 3-D. As those popular films go through the box office, the swath of DVD releases that follow could dramatically increase the profit from bringing the 3-D experience home.
TV makers are poised to do just that. At the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas last January, Panasonic unveiled its 3-D TV. This month, it launched a tour – a caravan of three tractor trailers will act as a travelling display room for the TV in the United States until March.
Sony said it will also make some products 3-D compatible, such as the popular PlayStation game console and the Bravia TV.
“Upgrades really are the lifeblood of the consumer electronics sector,” said Kaan Yigit, a new media analyst with Solutions Research Group, a Toronto-based consultancy. “The whole industry depends on some kind of regeneration every four or five years. … You have to have new technology or else you're at a standstill.”
He compares 3-D to technological shifts such as cassettes to CDs, or VHS tapes to DVDs. The switch from analog to high-definition TV over the past five years was worth $10-billion of revenue in Canada, Mr. Yigit estimates. High-definition sets can now be found in 40 per cent of Canadian households, and he expects it to hit 50 per cent by the end of the Christmas season.
If 3-D can trigger that kind of consumer shift, it could be worth billions more. It's easy to see why Sony and others are keen to seize the opportunity, and why upstarts such as Sensio want to get in on the ground floor.
Sensio wants to position its technology as the industry standard, so that once the big names launch 3D TVs, they'll have to pay for Sensio's technology to make them work.
In February, Sensio was granted a patent on its compression technology in the United States. Last month, the patent was extended to cover all spatial compression techniques. Sensio's stock – which had been at about 50 cents since its initial public offering in 2005 – tripled in value.
The patent gave Sensio the legitimacy it needed. The Consumer Electronics Association and the Blu-ray Disc Association have both said they want to establish a standard for 3-D.
Mr. Routhier says Sensio is fighting to be part of that. The Avatar deal is a big step. Once the option exists, the game will be playable in 3-D.
“Sensio is a good technology,” said Luc Duchaine, a senior brand manager at Ubisoft. “They were ready to support us and the technology worked well, so that was great.”
But because there is no standard, Ubisoft is using many types of encoding to make sure Avatar will work in 3-D.
“We're trying everything,” Mr. Duchaine said, who is skeptical a single standard will be set any time soon. “You saw how long it took to solve the HD DVD vs. Blu-ray standard. … It's a big problem for us to make sure we support everything.”
Mr. Routhier believes he'll be able to convince the industry to bank on a Canadian technology as its 3-D standard. To demonstrate Sensio's capabilities, he has already staged broadcasts of sports events in 3-D at movie theatres, to show it could work for live TV. This month, ESPN showed the Ohio State versus USC football game in theatres with Sensio.
But with an open field and plenty of money to be made, he'll have to fight hard to stay in the game.
“This is what people want,” he said. “These things will happen very fast, we believe.”
4 in 10 Marketers to Boost Digital OOH Spending
More than four in 10 (42%) agency and brand marketers plan to increase their digital out-of-home (DOOH) advertising spending through 2009 and the first half of 2010, according to a forecast and industry update report from Adcentricity, which found that total DOOH spending is on target to hit $4.53 billion by 2013, up from $2.6 billion in 2009.
This projection suggests that DOOH is among the fastest-growing media in North America and will account for 44.1% of all OOH spending by 2013, Adcentricity said.
Research conducted to compile Adcentricity’s “2010 Digital Out-of-Home Outlook & Planning Guide,” also revealed that digital out-of-home advertising currently reaches two-thirds (67%) of US residents ages 18+ each month and delivers a fairly representative cross-section of consumers, writes Marketing Charts.
