Event Description
Learn about North America’s first Broadcast-Broadband Convergence B²C Lab; a world-class telecommunications research centre designed to explore multi-sectoral business applications enabled by the new ATSC 3.0 IP-based television broadcast transmission system including the pioneering R&D work that Humber Polytechnic is undertaking alongside a global research and implementation team.
Humber’s B²C Lab is undertaking advanced R&D with emergency communications that can bolster the resilience of municipal and regional communications networks and offer enhanced capabilities and services using this new broadcast transmission technology. These new solutions using existing television broadcast infrastructure can bolster municipal networks and offer enhanced capabilities to protect critical infrastructure sectors.
To introduce the concept of broadcast communications to the broader municipal, regional and provincial communities, and develop municipal collaboration, Humber Polytechnic is hosting a novel Emergency Management Community Symposium on Friday June 6th at their North Campus in Toronto. This in-person event will feature presentations and demonstrations on a Next Generation Broadcast Communications Networks for First Responders, Broadcast Digital Signage, and an Aerial Incident Response System designed to provide situational awareness of Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (UAS) to crewed aircraft allowing for safe and more efficient integration of UAS in operational airspace during wildland firefighting operations.
Join the discussion on May 26th and learn more about the Humber Polytechnic Broadcast-Broadband Convergence B²C Lab and the Advancing Public Safety: Emergency Management Community Symposium.
OAEM welcomes guest speaker Orest Sushko, Director Broadcast-Broadband Convergence B²C Lab, Humber Polytechnic.
