gesture control Systems for video and games (non-touch screen)

When Richard Marks’ son was young and playing a racing game, “he would lean left and he would lean right” with the curves, even though it made no difference to his gaming. “It’s more fun to do that than it is not to do that,” said Marks, senior director of Magic Lab, part of Sony’s Playstation RND, one of the three companies receiving this award that

recognizes technology that changed the way people interact with their televisions, not just with game consoles. Eventually the Sony team decided to get more formalized with their development process, Marks said, with the goals of enhancing the experience of playing games and drawing in new users. Microsoft (Kinect) and Nintendo (Wii) are also being recognized for their work on gesture recognition systems, which, while best known for their gaming applications, have since been adapted for use in television video service content navigation.

pioneering Work in the implementation and deployment of network dvr

Once a television program is recorded, consumers now

want to be able to watch it when and where they desire, and networked DVRs allow viewers to record in one location

Since its launch in 1948, the Technology & Engineering Emmy Awards have honored development and innovation in broad-cast technology and recognized companies, organizations and individuals for breakthroughs in technology that have a significant effect on television engineering. Some of this year’s awards are for advances that date back decades; the committee likes to be certain that “the technology has reached a point where it has materially affected the industry,” said committee chairman, Robert P. Seidel, vice president of CBS Engineering and Advanced Technology. “The National Academy’s Technology and Engineering Achievement Committee is pleased to honor these technology companies and individuals whose innovation and vision have materially affected the way the audience views television and have set the standard for technological excellence in the industry,” Seidel said. Here are the 65th Annual Technology & Engineering Achievement honorees:

and play back the program elsewhere. Time Warner Cable, Cablevision and Thirdspace (Velocix, Alcatel-Lucent) are being recognized for their work over many years in the implementation and deployment of the network DVR.

“NDVR enhances the time-shifting convenience that DVR brought to video customers, by recording and storing multiple linear channels in “the network” rather than by deploying mass-storage devices in consumers’ homes,” Time Warner Cable said. “With a network DVR, you can record multiple programs at the same time, without being limited

by the number of tuners in your home, or by the hard disk capacity in your DVR. You can play back recorded content on any connected device — another TV, a tablet, a smartphone. And you’re in control, with such features as start-over, rewind and catch-up TV,” said Alcatel-Lucent. Cablevision has been able to reduce service calls by introducing a cloud-based system. Yvette Kanouff, executive vice president of corporate engineering and technology, said, “Cloud-based DVR greatly enhances the convenience and functionality of DVR. By recording and storing content in ‘the cloud’ instead of on devices in the consumer’s home, cloud-based DVR introduces much-needed flexibility and efficiency to an already popular service.”

pioneering development of video on demand (vod) dynamic Advertising insertion

Increasingly, video consumers are demanding instant access, on their own schedules, to high-quality video content. But that poses a challenge to those who make the content: they need to sell ads to pay for it, but advertisers are often interested in buying ads that are narrowly targeted to run on certain dates, not at any undefined time in the future. “The challenge was to create a VOD-based ecosystem that rewards content owners for contributing to that large library of high-quality, on demand video,” said Time Warner Cable, which, with N2 Broadband (Ericsson) is being recognized for their work in overcoming this challenge. The two companies are being honored for creating technology

that allows ads to be added, removed and refreshed in video on demand content throughout its lifetime, creating an appealing model for advertisers and allowing them to target different users with unique ads. Ericsson said its work in this area “enables more personalization, features and capabilities

(such as second screen advertising), delivering monetization for not only service providers but also advertisers.”

development, Standardization and productization of the high definition Serial digital interface

With the development of the high definition serial digital interface, equipment from multiple professional video manufacturers could be connected, allowing “engineers and system designers to create the complex production and distribution systems necessary for modern television program creation,” Sony said. This award honors Sony and Yamashita Engineering Manufacture Inc. (YEM/For-A) for their work in developing technology that allowed for the transmission of high definition data at the long cable lengths needed

and finding a way to allow the two high definition formats, 1080i and 720p, to interface with each other. “Ultimately, the development and standardization of HD-SDI was crucial to the widespread adoption of equipment for the production and distribution of HD digital television programs,” said Hugo Gaggioni, vice president and chief technology officer at Sony Electronics Professional Solutions of America. SMPTE, the Society of Motion Picture & Television Engineers, is also being honored for subsequently developing an industry standard for the interface “that actually was done so well that it served for a great deal more purposes than its original intent,” said Peter Symes, SMPTE’s Director of Standards & Engineering. “It’s been adapted to carry a large number of different formats and signal types.”

development and Standardization of the mpeg-2 transport Stream

High definition television signals must squeeze an original picture of 1.5 billion bits of information into a mere 19 million bits and then reconstruct the image when it arrives in the home, Engineering Achievement Committee chairman Seidel noted. All digital television signals and boxes use the unique compression technique for which the ISO/IEC JTC1/

SC29/WG11 Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) is being recognized with this award. “The MPEG-2 transport stream format does not only specify how to packetize digital video and audio data and how to retrieve the data associated to the same program from a transport stream, but also how to meet important system requirements, such as accurate synchronization between video and audio, a high quality of service, acceptable delays and resiliency against transmission errors,” MPEG said. The format has been extended to accommodate new generation audio and video compression standards over 20 years, and as a result, “The market enabled by the MPEG-2 transport stream format is enormous,” MPEG said.

in-camera electronic compensation for lateral chromatic Aberrations in external lenses

As the television industry began switching to high definition production the requirements of the lens in front of the camera became more stringent, Seidel said. Panasonic is being honored with this award for implementing a process to correct for the diffuse fringes of color that were appearing on the images and ruining the high definition effect for viewers,

particularly during sports broadcasts. “All lenses have lateral chromatic aberrations,” said Michael Bergeron, of Panasonic System Communications Company, and the challenges to fixing that became more acute as the industry switched to HD and smaller and smaller cameras were introduced. “So early small HD cameras were nowhere near the performance of larger ones,” he said. The solution the company came up with helped bring about an era of more affordable broadcast-quality HD cameras.

pioneering Analog video repositioner

In the mid-1970s, CBS News had a problem, recalled Robert A. Diamond, who is the recipient of this award along with his business partner, the late Steven Rutt. In the then-analog world, producers weren’t able to position an insert box with graphics in their previously recorded video. CBS News, Diamond said, “had prerecorded tapes of images, of people talking, and wanted to put titles and information next to them but there was very little real estate.” If the video could be moved to the side, the information could be inserted, Diamond said, adding that he immediately knew the technical solution to the problem. In addition to news producers, PBS’s “Electric Company” and “Sesame Street” also adopted the technology at the time. Today, “nobody even thinks about moving an image,” Diamond said of the now-digital world.

personalized recommendation engines for video discovery

In a world of thousands of television and video channels and an ever-growing number of programs — YouTube users upload 100 hours of video every minute — viewers are overwhelmed with choice. Five companies are being honored for their contributions to developing systems that make it easier for viewers to navigate through the sea of options: Adobe Systems’ John Hey and LikeMinds; Netflix; TiVo; YouTube and Amazon. “E-commerce was

evolving,” and companies were looking for ways to make product or media recommendations, said Pritham Shetty, vice president of products for video solutions at Adobe, which used collaborative filtering in its early system to guide users — who were buying music or jeans, or deciding what movie to see in the theater — to other options based on their previous likes. TiVo’s first commercial DVR in 1999 had “Thumbs

Up” and “Thumbs Down” buttons on the remote so users could assign one of seven different ratings to shows. Originally the data was used to produce a list of suggested shows that would be recorded automatically so shows weren’t missed, but now “recommendations

are key to sifting through the vast online and on-demand content libraries,” TiVo said. YouTube, which launched its recommendation system in 2008, found that the better


the market enabled by the mpeg-2 transport stream format is enormous.

the recommendations, the more viewers would watch, said Cristos Goodrow, engineering director. But viewers need to help out by telling YouTube what they like: the more they do so, “the better the recommendations that you’ll get,” Cristos said.

pioneering Wearable camera Stabilizer platforms

Forty years ago self-taught filmmaker Garrett Brown, who is being honored with this award, was frustrated by the limits and high costs of making moving shots outdoors, which required the use of a fixed tripod on tracks or dollies laid down on a predetermined path. So he set out to devise a better system, he said, and after two years the Steadicam was born, in 1976. His first version was too onerous, he said, so “I went back into a motel for a week, and isolated myself for 20 hours a day.” What he emerged with was a drawing of the set-up, which “isolates the cameraman from the camera,”

Brown said, adding that its real value is providing “a gorgeous elegant way to move objects through space by hand.” The rock-steady Steadicam shots started appearing immediately, on “Little House on the Prairie” and in the iconic scenes of Sylvester Stallone running up the stairs of the Philadelphia Museum of Art in the 1976 film “Rocky.” Other stabilized

camera-mounting systems were developed in the 1990s, after Brown’s patent expired.

inexpensive Small rugged hd camcorders

In a world of proliferating options for inexpensive HD action camcorders,

the committee honored the work of GoPro, whose camcorder stands out “because it is rugged enough to drop 3,000 feet or submerge to a depth of 180 feet. It is also capable of operation while the user is wearing thick gloves, inexpensive to be used in array of 40 or more cameras and squeezed into a camera body of just 4.6 cubic inches at a cost under $200.” Unusually, both consumers and professional productions, including CBS’s “Hawaii Five-O”, have rapidly adopted the camera. “I can’t watch an hour of TV without seeing it,” said Scott Campbell, GoPro’s Senior Director, Camera Architecture. The biggest challenge in developing the camera was “power

management,” he said, both packing the large battery into such a small space and dispersing the heat that is generated. Image quality also was a challenge, because “The smaller you make things the harder it is to make them good.” The company makes all of its lenses custom and “Over the past couple years we’ve really made a big effort to control all critical parts of the camera system in house,” Campbell said.

Get ready for another TV avalanche, otherwise known as the Winter Olympics. NBC literally will have a cast of thousands in Sochi when the Games begin in February. The network will deliver a seemingly infinite number of hours of coverage over multiple TV platforms and through streaming on the Internet.

It is a far, far cry — light years even — from the days when ABC’s Jim McKay and Roone Arledge were beaming back limited coverage of the Olympics to viewers in the U.S. Al Michaels, a seven-time Emmy winner, recalled how primitive things were when he was working the Olympics with McKay and Arledge. In fact, his famous call of “Do you believe in miracles.,..Yes!” capping the United States’ stunning hockey upset over the Soviet Union in the 1980 Olympics wasn’t heard live. The game aired on tape delay.

“It’s amazing how anything got done,” said Michaels, who will work his eighth Olympics. “I mean, how did we function without cell phones? Back then, we couldn’t talk to someone across the street.”

Now NBC looks to continue to up the ante with its coverage for Sochi. Mike Sheehan, coordinating director for NBC Olympics said the network will use the latest technology to help viewers feel the chill of the snow and ice, if only figuratively.

“Our Sochi Winter Games coverage — including television and streaming hours — will nearly double what it was in Vancouver in a time zone that is nine hours ahead of East Coast time. Technology plays an integral role in our production, presentation and transmission of the Olympics to our viewers in the United States,” Sheehan said.

Once again, the Steadicam, one of this year’s Emmy honorees, will be an important component in NBC’s coverage of the Olympics. The technology allows the camera to remain stable while moving, delivering what founder Garrett Brown calls, “smooth shots.”

Brown, who invented the Steadicam in the 1970s, says the

Steadicam functions the same way as a person’s brain.“When you walk along, you don’t see a bumpy shot when

you look in front of you,” Brown said. “You see it smooth. The brain is a marvelous stabilizer itself. You’re not even conscious of moving up and down. If you put a camera on your head, you would be astounded how much it moves.”

The Steadicam first attracted attention when Brown used to it record the famous sequence in “Rocky” when

Sylvester Stallone bounds up the stairs at the Philadelphia Art Museum.

It was used for the first time in the Olympics in 1984 in Los Angeles. For the Summer Games, Brown came up with DiveCam for diving competition

and MobyCam, an underwater camera following swimmers.For the Winter Games, the

technology has evolved to Skycams flying on wires, used in events such

as downhill skiing and ski jumping and stabilized cameras on curved rails (a

relatively new innovation), moving along with speedskaters.“The reason why the shots work, besides being

stable, is that they are in motion along with the action,” Brown said. “They are what you would love to

do if you could race along with them.”“Most primitively, the (Steadicams) are about stabilizing

the images,” Brown added. “But more importantly, they are about the kinetics and the pure 3-D imitation joy of a movie shot. For the Olympics, it is particularly effective. “

Another innovation, the Steadiseg, merges the Steadicam technology with a Segway. The operator controls the Segway with the knees while filming.

Brown said the idea came from an inventor in Germany. “He used it for dancers so they can glide like something

out of Disney,” Brown said. “First they tried it with skirts, but they went under the wheels and pulled the dancers down. Then they put hoops under the skirts so they won’t go under the wheels. He called and proposed that we use it with the Steadicam.”

The concept was used during the Summer Olympics

David Pogue is the anchor columnist for Yahoo! Tech, having been groomed for the position by 13 years as the personal-technology columnist for The New York Times. He’s also a monthly columnist for Scientific American and host of science shows on PBS’s “NOVA.” He’s been a correspondent for “CBS Sunday Morning” since 2002.

With over 3 million books printed, David is one of the world’s bestselling how-to authors. He wrote or co-wrote seven books in the “for Dummies” series (including Macs, Magic, Opera, and Classical Music); in 1999, he launched his own series of complete, funny computer books called the Missing Manual series, which now includes 120 titles.

David graduated summa cum laude from Yale in 1985, with distinction in Music, and he spent ten years conducting and arranging Broadway musicals in New York. He’s won two Emmy awards, two Webby awards, a Loeb award for journalism, and an honorary doctorate in music. He’s been profiled on “48 Hours” and “60 Minutes.” In October 2013, he left The New York Times to create a new consumer-technology site: Yahoo! Tech. He lives in Connecticut with his wife and three children. His web site is davidpogue.com.

in London. After Usain Bolt, the world’s fastest man, won the gold medal, the pictures showed a camera operator on a Steadiseg trailing close behind to record the historic moment.

“The Steadiseg is terrific for an Olympics,” Brown said. “It allows you to move much faster and still get the Steadicam component.”

Another one of this year’s Emmy winners, GoPro, has been assisting Shaun White in his bid for another Gold medal. He has been using the versatile camera in his training for the games.

According to USA Today, GoPro built White a secluded half-pipe facility in Australia. One camera mounted on the 22-foot wall near an airbag allows White and his coach Bud Keene to see if the snowboarder could land the trick on snow.

“They’ve been rapidly bringing new products and

capabilities which have really extended our potential use of it,” Keene told USA Today. “I know that both Shaun and I are really excited that GoPro has stepped up and helped him to obtain this training opportunity.”

Brown will be among the American viewers watching White and the other Olympians. He jokingly calls himself “a fossil.” He last actively worked at an Olympics in 1996. But thanks to his Steadicam technology, he always feels involved when he watches the coverage.

Brown thinks the Olympics provide a terrific platform for the latest technology. Unlike a baseball or football game, he says, the coverage is more about telling stories.

“The Olympics are storytelling shots,” Brown said. They are like the big crane shots in movies. They are God’s eye view. That’s what makes this so interesting.”
