Technicolor presented an overview of their 3D quality control certification process and criteria in their Central Hall booth at CES. The 3D certification program, Certifi3D, launched in December.

BSkyB, the first Europe operator to launch a 3D channel, recently announced its support for the Certifi3D service.

“We are very excited that BSkyB is endorsing our 3D certification program,” said Pierre (Pete) Routhier, Technicolor’s VP for 3D product strategy and business development. “Together with our customers, we will take a proactive approach in support of the industry to ensure a consistent and quality end-consumer 3D experience in the home.”

Technicolor’s Certification chart, which describes their evaluation criteria, is “a 15-point quality checklist to identify common errors in production that result in suboptimal 3D content.” The checklist ranges in areas from luminance and depth of field to hyperconvergence and 2D-to-3D ratio. An overview of the chart (Technicolor Certifi3d Poster) is available as a pdf download.
