The Open Mobile Video Coalition (OMVC) is launching an ATSC Mobile DTV consumer showcase in the greater Washington DC metro market in the first quarter of 2010. This is part of our continuing mission to accelerate commercialization of mobile TV services, and follows the successful development of the ATSC Mobile DTV open standard. At least seven broadcast stations will participate in the Washington DC Consumer Showcase (WCS).
The WCS will be consumer-centric. Its core objective is to comprehensively characterize consumer behavior, attitudes and expectations in the adoption of mobile TV services based on ATSC Mobile DTV.
