Leon Husson, Executive Vice President of Consumer
Businesses for Philips Semiconductors, provides “Vision” for Multimedia
Applications in the Home
Parks Associates is pleased
to announce
Leon Husson,
Executive Vice President, Consumer Business, Philips Semiconductors as the
Visionary III keynote at
Fall Focus:
The Home Multimedia Experience. Mr. Husson will present “The Vision:
Connected CE as a Multimedia Hub” on Thursday, November 6 from 2:00 - 2:30
pm.
As the industry moves from analog to digital, wired to
wireless, fixed to mobile, the evolution of the “Connected Consumer” concept
is well on its way. This concept revolves around electronics manufacturers
delivering easy, seamless access to content demanded by consumers, through
technologies that can speak to one another within the home and in the
outside world. This concept is enabled by the convergence of key devices,
such as TVs, PCs, DVD recorders, in the home and the key supporting
technologies such as broadband, wireless connectivity and digital
processing.
“Philips believes that connected consumer appliances
will be key to enabling a seamless and enriching multimedia experience,”
said
Leon Husson.
“Philips is focused on key applications such as digital TVs, LCD TVs and the
next-generation of DVD recorders to serve as the hubs of the digitally
connected home, making digital content available when you want it, where you
want it and at living room prices.”
“The opportunity for developing, marketing, and
shipping devices that accept, aggregate, store, and stream multimedia
content for the home is expected to be substantial over the next five
years,” said Kurt Scherf, Vice President, Research, Parks Associates. “As
Philips plays a crucial development role in ‘network-capable’ semiconductors
for consumer electronics platforms, we are quite excited to hear Mr.
Husson’s perspective on his company’s vision for connected entertainment.”
The Home
Multimedia Experience is being held at the Hyatt San Jose on November 5
& 6 and provides an interactive forum for executives to hear from more than
20 industry leaders and learn the latest developments, trends, visions and
realities of home multimedia applications. Interactive sessions, led by

insight and analysis into the opportunities and challenges for multimedia
connectivity in the home.
