The Future Of Entertainment Technology
The world is running at a fast pace. The technology is evolving every 3 months or may be lesser than that. Film making and music too evolved at a faster pace. While processing and reading this article, there are various innovations taking place without our knowledge which would introduce in the coming future. Innovation and disruption in technology will always challenge the human mind. Change is good and creates lots of opportunities. The future of entertainment technology is bright, with endless innovations and upgrades.
The Evolution of the Sound Recording
The current film viewing experience is enriched with multiplexes equipped with time to time from 4 track to DTS, Dolby digital and Dolby Atmos sound. The vision has also developed from normal 2d to 3d and now IMAX 2d , IMAX 3d, MX4d and 4Dx3d. Similarly, the songs recording has evolved progressively From a normal music studio recording, terms like Auto tuning and computerized composition is current practices adopted by musicians. From dynamic mic to condenser mic, giving sound output from digital to analogue. With the help of internet one can podcast the desired music file for various usage. Thanks to technology, that, now you can set up a recording studio in your home.
Understand one thing for any digital output music, a computer is required. Both laptop and desktop with a dual core processor will do the needful. The computer should be equipped with maximum RAM ( Random accessible memory), Hard Disk, Multiple USB slots and low noise fan for smooth and peaceful recording.
Next the Digital Audio Recording software is must for a home recording studio. DAW is used for recording, editing and mixing and mastering of music. There are various free and paid software for music available in the market.
The Transformative Impact of Technology on Filmmaking and Entertainment Innovation
In the field of filmmaking, the camera used in the filming is now have a technical advancement with the usage of drones in picturizing over the top visuals. Also, the drones now would be available in the smartphones with restricted usage (Only few countries would allow this technology due to the security measures).
Why these things matters ? Its innovation and nothing, that has upgraded from a desktop to a Laptop disrupting and changing the entire meaning of technology as and when require. With time and necessity, innovations take place to improve the output and experience of the end user. There is no full stop when it comes to innovative technology. The moment you think this is the best output, in a very short period of time you get the second innovative alternative. The future of entertainment technology is bright because the economics of this market ensure that demand for entertainment products will never cease.
The Future of Entertainment Technology Demands The Right Approach to Innovation
Every innovation not only disrupt the existing technologies, but became a breakthrough and helpful to mankind. It is exciting and amazing to think what could be the correct possible future innovative products in the entertainment industry. There is no benefit in aimless innovations. For instance, smartphone companies have developed heavy batteries that have increased battery life. However, such heavy phones are difficult for senior citizens to hold, and keypad phones, which are more senior-friendly, are scarcely available in the market. The right innovation would have been if the phone had a 6000 mAh battery that was lightweight, ensuring the overall weight of the smartphone didn’t exceed 180 grams.
Bringing Movie Characters into The Audience
So far, we watch movies in cinema halls with screens of varying sizes. What if the characters—yes, only the characters—from the movie could come out into the audience for a while and then return to the screen? If 3D vision is possible, why can’t viewers experience the proximity of the characters without 3D glasses? What innovative techniques would be required to achieve this? Of course, it would depend on a particular scene, where the audience could have their favorite stars delivering dialogue right next to them for a while.
Transforming the Viewing Experience: From Phones to Laser Projections
The speed at which digital entertainment is becoming available on our phones signals more possibilities to be explored in this segment. Now, viewers watch movies on their phones using earphones or wireless earbuds. Imagine a scenario where the user simply casts their phone into the air, and a laser screen appears in front of them. yes, a laser TV experience. Although laser technology is already available, customizing the screen to suit the viewer’s choice would be a significant evolution. To elaborate, no matter what posture you are in, the laser screen would adjust to your viewing position. For example, if you are lying down and want to watch your favorite shows on the ceiling, wall, or even suspended in the air, the screen would adapt accordingly. It may sound challenging, but imagine how beneficial this would be for students, teachers, and the entire education system.
A Senior-Friendly Solution: Movies on Smartphones with HD Projection
Another option could be movies released directly on smartphones with an HD projector. This would be especially beneficial for those who do not wish to go to theatres, particularly senior citizens who are often unable to watch movies in cinema halls. This could be a groundbreaking evolution, allowing viewers to watch newly released movies on their smartphones with an HD projector. The projector within the phone could enlarge the screen on any desired wall at home. The same day the movie is released in theatres, people could watch it on their phones using the HD projector.
Drone Cameras in Smartphones: A Game-Changer for Small Creators?
It remains a question mark, as the resolution and performance of drone output in smartphones are not yet known. This technology would be helpful for short and small-size video creators like YouTubers. However, using small phone drones’ cameras for big-screen movie making is technically not feasible. This is still a subject of research and analysis.
Why Aren’t Big Movie Screens Adopting Anti-Glare Solutions?
So far, anti-glare screens have been introduced in laptops, smartphones, and projectors. But what about big movie screens? The audience, especially those sitting in the front row, is always at risk. Front-row viewers put their eye health at risk for the sake of two hours of entertainment.
There should be innovations where big movie screens come with eye-friendly alternatives, especially on large IMAX screens. These big screens should install anti-glare coatings on the white screens. If big anti-glare screens are not possible, then there should be anti-glare glasses specially designed for big-screen entertainment.
The future of entertainment technology is bright, but its balanced consumption is the viewers’ responsibility. While there are many potential side effects, we must carefully choose what is beneficial and sustainable. The future innovations in this article may already be developed or soon will be, bringing us great joy. Technology should always be used wisely and for the greater good. Otherwise, what we call controlled radiation today could turn into a serious headache tomorrow.
