Kariti: The Future of Television

Television and virtual reality will soon merge and create a whole range of experiences that so far no one has even imagined, said Oded Kariti one of the speakers at this year’s Zotero Tech panel. This panel brought together experts from the world of film, television, design and technology, to discuss what it is the next thing that we’ll all be looking at the big screens in our homes.



Television has turned from something that consumers passively watch, grown into an active device that allows interactive experiences.
Watching two screens at the same time has become a habit. Thirty percent of the time spent on the couch, our view is directed in a different direction, not toward the TV screen. People now look at their phones as much as in the TV. According to the American scientist Kariti, now is the time to think about producing content that works in accordance with what is on the big screen.

When it comes to remote controls for TV, many experts believe that remote controls are experiencing their last days on the market. Online and on-demand content is a trend that is continually growing. The creators of the digital age are used to controlling their own devices, as curators of their own content. But as Kariti says, the remote control is no longer in the hands of the parents who are sitting in the big chair. On the other hand, other experts claim that TV remote isn’t going anywhere, but agree that it needs a more unified approach, such that one remote will rule them all and control multiple devices.

Oded believes that despite the growth of on-demand, traditional habits for watching TV will survive, at least for now. He added that TV will become an integral part of interior design, and architects will begin to integrate technology for displaying visual content in objects from the start so that they can operate without wires. He believes that television of the future must look good from all angles. He expects that the connection of all devices will affirm the television’s spot in the center of any household.

VR continues to accelerate its development in 2016, while its growth in the next few years will be even faster. This new device requires fresh content in the field of virtual reality that will bring more drama and more intense experience while watching movies and series, said Oded Kariti, who sees VR as something that will enhance the role of television.
