Digital Radio Project To Enable Multimedia-DAB On Mobile Phone
SWR has selected The Technology Partnership (TTP) to join the ‘Future Radio’ project which will trial innovative new visual interactive radio services in Germany. The ‘Future Radio’ project will start its first trial in Stuttgart this summer. SWR and TTP will present the aims of the ‘Future Radio’ project to broadcasters and operators at CeBIT in Hannover, 4th - 9th March 2008.
