CWG2010 is all set to bring country's biggest sports event on 3rd October 2010. Well the CWG2010 has definitely done a lot of development for Delhi. Lots of new flyovers, bridges, Metro, parking, bus stands etc. have been developed. World's largest Bus Depot was launched a few days back. We all are watching these infrastructural developments in Delhi, but not only the infrastructure has improved but with CWG, television too is getting latest technologies.
DoorDarshan got HD, which means now the experience of watching the games will be double fun as you will be getting high definition digital quality videos. Another big thing that nation will be hearing about is the use of IPTV. Yes! the CWG village will be providing IPTV services to the players along with the luxury rooms. iControl IPTV which is providing IPTV services along with BSNL / MTNL in 22 cities of India is gonna make it possible. They recently updated on Facebook and Twitter about the news that they will be providing IPTV services for the CWG village. For those who are new to the word IPTV can read my earlier blogs on IPTV.
IPTV technology has lots of features making TV viewing experience lot better. iControl provides features like time shift (named CHILL & COOL). CHILL lets its viewers watch all the that was telecasted on TV up to last 7 days while COOL lets the viewers rewind-pause-play LIVE TV. This means players at their free time can watch all that they missed during their matches. It will be a real high tech facility that they will be getting. Though IPTV is already present in lots of European countries and others as well but, in India its still an emerging technology and hence its presence in games up brings the IPTV in digital technologies. Lets hope that after the games India will get a step ahead of DTH and will initiate to go for IPTV.
