IBC is calling for submissions for the latest round of groundbreaking Technical Papers to be presented as part of the IBC2025 Conference programme this summer.
The IBC Technical Papers Programme offers a unique opportunity for forward-thinking technologists and companies to unveil their ideas and research to media industry leaders hungry for the latest technology concepts and their potential and practical applications.
The programme welcomes entries from all sectors across the media, entertainment and technology industry. Entries can come from any discipline – from professionals and professors to R&D members or those working with a global brand.
Dr Paul Entwistle, Chair of IBC's Technical Papers Committee, said: “Unsurprisingly, AI was our most popular Technical Papers session at IBC2024 – where we covered facial recognition, machine-learning in news, and the iterative use of generative AI for targeted advertising. This was closely followed by our session on streaming – where the audience learnt how cricket was concurrently streamed to 59 million viewers in India. We also presented strong sessions covering XR including neural radiance fields, provenance and trust, 5G both technical advances and field trials, advances in video coding, and sustainability. All a reminder of the breadth of technologies impacting our industry.”
The Technical Papers are available on IBC365, with the very best showcased in a joint publication with the IET, ‘The Best of IET and IBC 2024’ found either on IBC365 or the IET website.
IBC Technical Papers present unpublished technical disclosures of original, novel research and/or innovation focused on real-world problems faced by the international broadcast and digital media industry. At this initial stage, IBC is looking for a 300-word synopsis giving a clear and concise overview of the key topic of your paper, evidencing what is unique and novel and explaining its background.
“Technical disclosures can also include new analytical insight into the cultural, social and environmental impact of our industry – for instance, as AI continues to impress, its impact on human creativity, intellectual rights and jobs is less clear,” Entwistle noted. “IBC sincerely appreciates the support the industry shows the Technical Papers Programme and looks forward to showcasing authors whose work sits at the cutting-edge, challenges the norm, or shares useful and practical insight.”
All submissions are rigorously reviewed by a panel of professional experts. Papers accepted for presentation at the IBC2025 Conference have the opportunity to win the highly coveted Best Conference Paper Award, presented at the IBC2025 Awards.
The deadline for submissions is Friday 7 February 2025. Entries can be submitted here.
