IBC has opened submissions for its Technical Papers programme for the IBC2023 Conference.
All sectors and disciplines across the media, entertainment and technology industry are being invited to submit entries for IBC’s Technical Papers.
The event is a prime opportunity for forward-thinking technologists and companies to unveil their ideas and research to media industry leaders hungry for new technology concepts, their possible uses and practical applications.
Previous winning Technical Papers from IBC2022 included research spanning from 8K Live VR at the Beijing Olympics, AI-created music, immersive audio at Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games in 2021 and greener streaming.
The Technical Papers Programme welcomes entries from all industry sectors, from professionals or professors, members of R&D teams, working alone or with a global brand and from across any part of the broadcast, communications, electronic media and entertainment fields. Papers accepted for presentation at the IBC2023 Conference have the opportunity to win the highly coveted Best Conference Paper Award, presented at the IBC2023 Awards.
Dr Paul Entwistle, Chair of IBC’s Technical Papers Committee, said: “It was great to be back at the RAI for IBC2022 last year, and what a fabulous turnout for our Technical Papers Programme — our session on Video Coding packed the room! AI/Machine learning was pervasive and particularly impressive in sports analytics. We also grappled with the creative and intellectual property challenges these techniques bring. VR/AR presented genuinely compelling enhancements for sports fans, and we began to see how 5G will impact content production.”
Entwistle noted: “We continue to showcase analytical insight into the cultural, social and environmental impact of our industry — where sustainability still has plenty to do, as we marry a responsible future with new innovations and a business need for service expansion. We sincerely appreciate the support the industry shows the Technical Papers Programme and look forward to showcasing authors whose work sits at the cutting-edge, challenges the norm, or shares useful and practical insight.”
At this initial stage, IBC is looking for a 300-word synopsis giving a clear and concise overview of the concept that will be the key topic of the paper, highlighting what is unique and explaining its background.
All submissions are rigorously reviewed by a panel of professional experts. Papers accepted for presentation at the IBC2023 Conference have the opportunity to win the highly coveted Best Conference Paper Award, presented at the IBC2023 Awards.
The deadline for submissions is February 10, 2023.
