Content Tomorrow
David Frankenbach (Rockwell Collins), Julian Levin (Twentieth
Century Fox Film Corp.), and John Nelson (Cinea, Inc.), and
moderated by Michael Childers (IMDC).
Childers believes physical delivery of media will disappear,
and content integration will be largely automated in the not-to-distant
future.
The IFE industry should transition to "a digital world" for
cost efficiency, flexibility, passenger choice, quality and
durability of product, and security, according to Levin.
A new digital system could reduce the cost of content management
by increasing flexibility and security with an end-to-end
encrypted system, Nelson added.
Frankenbach said that although no systemic content security
issues appear to exist, "we must remain vigilant," and the
timely creation of a new content standard "is critical."
