What is IPTV?
Hailed as the future of streaming media, IPTV transforms the way we watch television, the way we choose our entertainment, and the way we interact with our high-tech video environment. It reinvents the existing passive television viewing experience that we’ve come to know.
IPTV represents a blending of technologies such as broadband internet, voice, data, and video, otherwise known as the “triple play.” The new technology allows digital packets of media data to be transmitted over a broadband connection to a special IPTV set-top box and then viewed on a home television. One of its main advantages is that the consumer now has access to a plethora of video content from which they can view whenever they like. This is a marked advantage over traditional broadcast video content that is pre-selected by TV stations.
What Can You Do With It?
Applications of IPTV technology include interactive home entertainment including customizable internet sports broadcasting, as well as closed-circuit broadcasting of distance education, religious content, ethnic programming, and corporate training. Visit our Applications page for a more in-depth look at present and future applications that are almost as limitless as the human imagination.

Our Technology
The technology behind our vPortal IPTV™ line of set-top boxes is unparalleled in the industry. It uses the latest video compression technologies in an open-architecture system that is among the first to successfully incorporate the C2 Micro Systems technology. The C2 CC1100 provides a complete “system on a chip (SoC),” which is an integrated subsystem of vPortal that provides highly efficient processing capacity and the ideal amount of horsepower for video applications at the lowest possible cost. This gives vPortal the competitive edge of providing a superb feature set at a much lower price point than competing products.
Visioneering is working with source providers and OEMs who will provide IPTV content such as interactive TV, sports, gaming, ethnic programming, distance learning, video-on-demand to the home over a broadband internet using existing telephone networks to transmit the digital video data. The vPortal IPTV™ set-top box will be a critical link that allows the digital home to interface to the IPTV network. IPTV will fundamentally change the way people use and interact with television.
