  it was a pivot from many decades of analog video technology to the world 
 of digital media and video streaming that today&#39;s audiences enjoy all over
  the world. This talk will discuss the technical roots of analog video sta
 ndards\, how the quest for a high-definition broadcast television standard
  in the 1990s was met by a radical leap to digital technology\, the world&#39;
 s first digital TV standard (ATSC)\, and the recent development of the ATS
 C 3.0 standard for internet based broadcasting and streaming. Also discuss
 ed will be the adoption of digital television standards throughout the wor
 ld\, how government regulators have managed to transition from analog to d
 igital broadcasting and the commercial impact of standards on consumer ele
 ctronics products from TVs to smart phones.\n\nSpeaker Bio:\n\nGlenn Reitm
 eier is widely recognized as a technology visionary and pioneer in the tel
 evision industry. Throughout his career\, he has been a leader in establis
 hing revolutionary new digital standards that are now widely used in video
  production and in content delivery by over-the-air broadcasting\, satelli
 te\, cable and video streaming over the internet.\n\nNow an independent co

 dition to leading Sarnoff’s work on digital HDTV\, his laboratory also s
 pun out six technology startup companies in digital television and media.\
 n\nGlenn has served the industry as a Board member of the Advanced Televis
 ion Systems Committee (ATSC)\, the North American Broadcasters Association
 s (NABA) and the Open Authentication Technical Committee (OATC)\, and he h
 as been Chairman of the Board of both ATSC and OATC. He is a SMPTE Fellow 
 and a recipient of the Progress Medal and the Signal Processing Medal. He 
 is also an inaugural member of the Consumer Technology Association’s (CT
