Sisvel to License TDVision Systems IP Portfolio

TDVision Systems and Sisvel announced that TDVision has granted Sisvel the exclusive rights to manage TDVision's diverse intellectual property portfolio of stereoscopic technology patents. This portfolio includes key patents related to current digital video standards and video gaming technologies, particularly in the North American marketplace. TDVision's technology promises to lead the way toward widespread adoption of 3D to the Home, including Blu-ray, Satellite, Cable, IPTV, Mobile, Videogames, and over-the-air signals.

TDVision's patents include the award winning and standardized 2D+Delta system. The 2D+Delta format is also known as TDVCodec and is a key part of the "Multiview Video Coding" (MVC) codec (ISO-MPEG-14496-10:2008, Amendment 1), an extension to the ITU-T H.264 Advanced Video Coding (AVC) recently adopted by the Blu-ray(TM) Disc Association as the Blu-ray 3D(TM) specification.

Terms and conditions of Sisvel's new 3D Licensing Program with TDVision will be made available in the near future.
