ST promotes progress to UHD TV, with STB chipset
With UHD content increasing and being transmitted for the first time from some major international sporting events, including the Winter Olympic Games and the forthcoming FIFA World Cup, the partners believe that 2014 is set to be the year for 4K lift-off. The integration of ST’s Cannes Ultra/STiH312 client-box SoCs in SoftAtHome’s ScreenAtHome software platform enables solutions for delivering UHD content in the digital home and uprating operators’ offerings beyond traditional pay-TV services. It will also allow Ultra High Definition content streaming over broadband and other high-speed connections.
