SENSIO Puts 3D Technology And Expertise To Work For Videotron

SENSIO Technologies has announced that it has signed an agreement with Videotron, a leading integrated communications company in Quebec.
As part of its broadcasting activities, Videotron will launch a 3D content offering this December. The cable-TV distributor selected SENSIO for its SENSIO 3D technology as well as its expertise acquired over ten years in the industry, in order to deliver the most immersive experience to the consumer, whatever the type of television set owned.
Robert Départie, President and CEO of Videotron, said: "Our mission is to provide the best possible experience to all our customers. SENSIO 3D technology is the best available in terms of image quality, immersion and comfort for viewers. It's also a real pleasure to be doing business with another Canadian company, from our home province of Quebec to boot."
For 3DTVs, programming will be offered in the SENSIO 3D format. SENSIO 3D technology enables broadcasting of 3D content over the conventional 2D infrastructure via cable, satellite, or IPTV, while providing superior quality to common frame-compatible formats.
SENSIO 3D delivers "visually lossless" 3D images, which are so faithful to the originally captured images that the difference is imperceptible to the eye of the viewer. For non 3D-enabled TVs, SENSIO's know-how enables the best-quality anaglyph (viewed through the red-and-cyan glasses), which provides an unrivalled level of viewing comfort. Through these technologies, Videotron's customers will be able to view diversified 3D content including movies via video-on-demand, sporting events, and concerts.
Nicholas Routhier, President and CEO of SENSIO, said: "We are very proud that our first agreement with a cable broadcaster is with a Canadian company. Videotron wants to offer 3D programming of a better visual quality and our aim is to enable our partners to supply an improved customer experience. It's a real meeting of visions."
