Shanghai- The Shanghai Media Group is joining forces with Intel Corp to develop wireless broadband and mobile technology for high-definition TV programs. The partnership aims to allow audiences to watch HD programs anywhere, any time, on personal computers or mobile devices, the Shanghai Daily reports. “We are at a crucial time when the traditional media and new media are converging,” Zhang Dazhong, vice president of SMG, told the fourth China International New Media Forum before the signing ceremony. Intel will provide technology training, test equipment and lab and software solutions. An R&D centre will be set up in the Yangpu District of Shanghai, where the district government has allocated more than 10,000 square metres of land. SMG will build a platform using wireless broadband technology and invest its content, brand and human resources. Intel’s technology will be applied in all SMG new media divisions such as SiTV, which runs China’s largest digital cable pay TV platform, including a HD channel with a total of nearly six million users, and its newly established IPTV, mobile TV and video broadcasting website businesses.
