Abstract
To transmit and display high quality movies via optical networks, a new Super High Definition (SHD) digital cinema distribution system with the resolution of 8-million pixel is developed. Its image quality is four times of HDTV in resolution, and enables us to replace conventional 35mm films. This system is based on JPEG 2000 coding technology and transmits high quality digital cinema over high-speed IP networks. All digital cinema data are continuously transmitted at up to 500 Mbps. This system opens the door to the next generation of cinema-class digital content distribution over optical networks.
