| 21st February 2005 - The world got its first glimpse
of Push-To-View (PTV) mobile phone technology when LG
Electronics, a global pioneer in 3G technology, showcased
the next 3G “killer application” at 3GSM World
Congress 2005.
PTV is state-of-the-art mobile technology that combines
networking and multimedia, allowing multiple users to
share live video in real time. Evolved from Push-To-Talk
(PTT), PTV lets users select people to share live video
with, transmitting an audio/video feed in real time.
PTV also offers functions similar to the Messenger
chat engine. It manages user groups, checks reception,
selects users for video-conferencing and controls transmission.
The package has an invitation function, calling available
users to conference and giving them the option of accepting
or not.
“We are very proud to be the first to showcase
PTV technology. LG Electronics expects this to become
the next killer application, expanding 3G mobile communications
services worldwide. With continuing efforts to develop
innovative technology, we will strengthen our position
as the unrivalled 3G technology leader,” said LG
Electronics Mobile Communications Company President
& CEO M.H. Park.
LG Electronics’ commitment to customized and localized
product development has already won the company a number
of world firsts, including the 3-D Game phone (SV360/KV3600),
the Terrestrial DMB phone (LT1000), the Digital Qiblah
Mecca Indicator phone (F7100), the Diabetes (Health
Care) phone (KP8400) and the VOD camcorder phone (SV130).
