| The Japanese government will begin a joint project with private companies to develop technology for next-gen. ultra HD. |
The Japanese communications ministry also aims to begin broadcasting with the system in 2015 & internationally standardised the Japanese technology, the Yomiuri Shimbun said without citing sources.
The technology, dubbed "Super Hi-Vision", could show images of about 33 million pixels, 16 times more than the present Hi-Vision technology, a HD TV technology developed by public broadcaster NHK.
The ministry was expected to spend 300 million yen (about 2.8 million Euros) on start-up research starting from the fiscal year in April.
