Consumer 3.D

Here's another development from video land, underpinning the need for more bandwidth: a 3-D camera from Fujifilm. For now a prototype, but it will be aimed at consumers, and will generate both stills and clips.

Video is not 'just' YouTube or IPTV. There is lots more to it, such as 3-D. Hence, what we are starting to see now is 1 Gb/s networks, whereas formerly 100 Mb/s used to be the benchmark. And that, dear reader, can only be done using FTTH.
