The SMPTE Sum-Up 7-20-24

Welcome to the SMPTE Sum-Up, the weekly publication that details the recent and current events of your favorite standards development organization. This week at SMPTE:

The SMPTE Rocky Mountain section held the most Rocky Mountains event of the season! The Lookout Mountain Picnic, a fan favorite amongst the membership, finally returned! Sponsored by RF Specialties, this event was full of free food and drinks in the great outdoors. The picnic was followed by a tour of Lake Cedar Group's transmitter site, adding a fun technical element to a beautiful day.

The July/August issue of the Motion Imaging Journal has arrived! Focusing on adaptive content and personalization in media, this issue has great content ranging from ambient light compensation to hybrid images for personalized media, this issue has a ton of great information, an address from SMPTE President Renard T. Jenkins, and a spotlight on Stefan Albertz!
