Technology:
NHK (Japan Broadcasting Corporation) Science and Technology Research Laboratories has been
developing the super high vision (SHV) technology in alliance with leading
electric companies including Panasonic since 1995. Because SHV has more than 33
million pixels, its image does not become coarse even if the screen is larger
than 100 inches. And the number of frames per second is 120, two times more
than the number of frames supported by the current technology. The
state-of-the-art high image quality technology currently available from Toshiba
and Sony is 4K, but SHV exhibits 8K.
International Telecommunication Union (ITU) reportedly adopted Japan’s SHV technology as an
international technology standard. Great Britain and Korea are expected to adopt
this technology. Japan is preparing for the experimental broadcasting by SHV
scheduled for 2020. During the London Olympics, SHV was offered for public
viewing in nine locations in the world including three in Japan.
