TV Programme and Channel Ideas
Television Channels Ideas
Preface;
As digital channelling comes forward. There is an opportunity to make more content, distributed though niche channels such as VOD, Internet delivery and PPV. This brings an opportunity to develop Niche, global content, which traditionally has not been recognised as viable “6pm” television events…
The Awards Channel
The awards channel would cover awards of any-type, and compile an archive of these events – along with associated information of the award winners. Part of the revenue for this venture would be sourced via Advertising of related corporate, whilst other revenue options could be sourced via subscription revenues…
The Conference Channel
This Channel is devoted to conferences of all kinds.
There are many conferences happening every week, throughout the world. This channel is devoted to providing access to such conferences and associated material. Conferences help organisations and individuals keep track of current events, leaders, technologies, strategies, etc.
Telephony over IP – TOIP
VOIP is now beginning. TOIP – I see as the next step, Telco’s offering a new type of number, and similar to the numbers provided for Home, Business and Mobile. A TOIP Phone number would be connected via an “enabled” internet connection, and a consumer may connect via their computer device, a standard household telephone enabled with a suitable adapter or a new type of phone which may connect via Ethernet or other types of broadband technology. The Primary format change between TOIP and POTS (Plain old Telephone Service) is that a TOIP Address would have greater flexibility to offer dynamic “features”. Such as Global Roaming, Document Transmission, Video Conferencing Standards, and a dynamic web based interface. Discussion on this topic is currently being published at the Australian Communications Authority Web-Site. However if it were to begin, I would think an international organisation of Telecommunications companies would have to produce the “standard”, I also believe some work in this area has been initiated already.
Digital Receipt System for retail POS Systems (Point Of Sale)
The Ability to offer a Digital Receipt at the point of purchase, rather than a Paper receipt. This would help collate information for Tax time. It would also reduce paper usage / wastage, whilst it would probably be cheaper in the long-term for organisations to publish Digital rather than Paper.
Computer expansion port for displays
A standard Port, for the back of television devices. This Computer expansion port allows Computer MFG’s (manufacturers) to design a Standard Computer size, which can be plugged into the back of televisions and flat-screen monitors.
Generally, computers are upgraded every 3 – 5 years, whereas a television / display can be suitable for 10 – 25 years.
In Essence, it is like an Expansion port for computational upgrades, to be made for output devices. Standard interfaces would be needed between the Monitor device, and the Computational port – however on the back of the computational device, could be more specialist ports.
Intelligent batteries
Most Digital CE (Consumer Electronics) devices now carry both Data Storage & Electrical storage cards. This Idea proposes a product which facilitates both within a singular casing, enabling a rechargeable, removable – digital + electrical storage device. I believe this type of device, if well implemented has the capability to become as ubiquitous as an “AA” Battery. Plus, it may help lower overall production of plastics, which makes it environmentally friendly. The Recharger could have a USB Connection, allowing uploading of images and recharging of the Electrical capacity simultaneously.
Image Based Search Engine.
Utilising Technical algorithms, such as contour based image recognition, object based recognition, etc. A Search Engine could be developed that would support picture input (whether a frame of video or still image) so that people could search images, based on an image input…
This could be useful for a whole range of applications. But I think the most profitable, could be just a plain search box function.
Job Site Functionality
Advanced Profiling, to narrow the search field and make job suggestions.
The Entrepreneurial HR group of Products
I believe that there are many entrepreneurial people being similarly screwed by big companies, and probably finding it difficult to attract employment positions.
I believe that a “entrepreneurial” targeting option may be a beneficial service to offer, as the meta-tags associated to these individuals may be significantly differentiated from many current job profiles have more to do with educational background, standardised low-risk profiling, and upper-level corporate experience (internal staffing) rather than the potential for the applicant to be recognised as a creative sales drivers.
It is a key assumption that such profiling of entrepreneurial people, is differentiated enough to provide for a job listing / profiling / assessment system better suited to such industrial developers.
