Abstract

In the future, the television set at home will be a key device for providing integrated information services through broadcasting, communication and storage media. In this environment, users will be able to receive any type of information, e. g., HDTV programs, in real-time and whenever s/he wants. Moreover, the advent of advanced mobile terminals means that this new environment will eventually expand to anywhere outside the home. In this speech, I will introduce the services in the future and some topics of the technologies being developed by the NHK Science and Technical Research Laboratories (STRL) to achieve such services.
