THE DEVELOPERS NEVER CEASE TO COME UP WITH NEW TECHNOLOGY THAT MAKES ENTERTAINMENT MORE FUN AND MORE REAL WORDS: CLAIRE GRIFFITHS
ut the kettle on, ground the beans, sit yourself down and concentrate. This is going to be tricky but worth it. We are delving into the techie world of AV and internet. Say if half way through things are as clear as mud, by the end you’ll witness the
way ahead in terms of what you really can do right now to keep owners and guests AV happy, and where you need to sit tight and wait for the next wave of disruption to roll us into a new phase of innovation.
CIPOD Introducing CIPOD, the first and only custom-built cinema pod. Until now, home cinema has been about installing into a pre-existing space. CIPOD believe that it’s only by creating and controlling the space that you can have the ultimate experience, and judging by the end product they’re right. Precision engineered, each pod can be fully customised from configuration down to fabrics and finishes, has a 4K Ultra HD projector and around 14 speakers for the very best sound quality. Whether it’s for your yacht or on land, arrange your own CIPOD Experience. For more details Tel: +44 (0)2039 119 990 or visit

A bird’s eye view of the latest technological developments looks spookily like a shopping list for Star Ship Enterprise but we know the whizz kids make sense so let’s listen. Sales Manager Daniel Kerkhof at CRESTRON Netherlands suggests the following are the most exciting developments for the yachts: “For entertainment systems it is nowadays all about AV-over-IP solutions. Last year we launched our new video distribution solution DigitalMedia™ NVX which is full of features that the marine market has been eagerly awaiting. It offers incredible image quality delivering stunning 4K60 4:4:4 and HDR over a standard 1G Ethernet network. This means it’s not only suitable for new builds but also refit projects. Utilising a transmitter at the source, a 1G network switch in the middle and a receiver at the display means it is infinitely scalable. Offering zero latency, total security and encoding and decoding in a single unit makes this technology a game changer for distributing entertainment on board. Thanks to DM NVX we are able to provide the owner with unlimited flexibility, superior image quality and rock-solid reliability.”
“Today,” says Sara Stimilli, Marketing and Communication Director at VideoWorks, “we’re getting excited about LTE-A (that’s a mobile communication standard and an enhancement of the Long Term Evolution (LTE) standard). Tomorrow, or by 2019, we’ll have 5G that will allow guests shoreside to enjoy their own streaming services like Netflix or SKY GO.”
