Verizon and Panasonic Stream Full HD 3D

Verizon — partnered with Panasonic — is streaming Full HD 3D, in a technology demonstration set up in the South Hall Blogger Lounge. The companies suggest that this is another way of delivering quality 3D content to the home.

Plans are to offer this capability through FiOS, which in the demo was used to stream at 18Mpbs from its media server to a Panasonic Blu-ray player, which handled the decoding.

The demo showed Alice in Wonderland, streaming at half resolution, compared with A Christmas Carol, at Full HD.

A start date for this service has not been set.

In the South Hall press room, Verizon is showing additional services: Flex View, a new feature of FiOS TV that allows customers to display content on a TV, online and on select mobile devices (Q4 availability); and a home control system, enabling users to control devices in the home using a TV, smartphone or the web (a pilot program begins in late January).
