SENSIO Technologies announced the continued expansion of its 3D live roll-out in high definition for digital cinemas throughout Europe. The announcement was made following a flawless 3D live satellite broadcast of the Julien Clerc concert on July 16th to four locations across France. Julien Clerc is a leading French entertainer with a broad following throughout France and Europe.

The concert was broadcast live to multiple digital theatres in high definition 3D along with high quality and crisp images. Fans were amazed with the level of quality and comfort of 3D viewing and enjoyed a real immersive 3D experience. The event was broadcast by OpenSky, who purchased and installed International Datacasting Corporation’s (“IDC”) Pro Cinema 3D live Decoders equipped with leading SENSIO 3D technology. This equipment is an add-on to the existing digital cinema broadcast network previously provided to them by IDC.

As part of their digital cinema service offering, OpenSky has formed the 3D Stereoscopic group (3DSG), a partnership with dBW Communication and Eutelsat for the end-to-end production and distribution of 3D live events across Europe.

“Our technology is deployed worldwide, through various satellite enabled theatre networks in America, Europe and Asia, which confirms our position as the global leader in becoming the de facto standard. The global network we are creating enables 3D live broadcasting around the world, and we are extremely proud to have been selected by Eutelsat, one of the world’s leading satellite operators, for the continued expansion of the SENSIO®3D enabled digital network”, said Nicholas Routhier, SENSIO’s President and CEO.
