LAS VEGAS, NEVADA and OTTAWA, ONTARIO and MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - April 23, 2009) - International Datacasting Corporation, (TSX:IDC) and SENSIO Technologies Inc. (TSX VENTURE:SIO) announced today the beginning of their first operational roll-out of live 3D in high definition for digital cinema in Europe. The announcement was made at the annual National Association of Broadcasting (NAB) show being held in Las Vegas following the first 3D live broadcast via satellite of a complete basketball game in Europe to multi locations across Italy on April 19th.

The invitation only event was broadcast by OpenSky, who purchased and installed their first Pro Cinema 3D live Decoders prior to NAB as an add-on to the digital cinema broadcast network previously provided to them by IDC. The SENSIO® 3D technology used in the system adds additional revenue generating capability to Opensky's new satellite broadband DVB-S2 distribution network which has been deployed specifically for live events and alternate content delivery to theatres across Europe equipped with digital cinema projection systems."
