Summ’it aims to connect audiences through audio storytelling
The DRM Consortium took a trip to Indonesia on Oct. 8–9 to pitch Digital Radio Mondiale digital radio technology to the Indonesian Ministry of Communications, Information and Technology of Indonesia, known commonly as Kominfo. The expansive country is considering a DRM deployment.
The DRM team presented an “overview of DRM technology across various frequency bands (LF/MF/HF, VHF in FM Band, and Band III) highlighting the core features and applications such as emergency warning functionality, public signage, distance learning, traffic information.”
Related, demonstrating DRM-compatible technology and equipment was RF2Digital which has a DRM-DAB receiver; Starwaves and Fraunhofer, who have partnered on the SoftRadio DRM/DAB digital radio receiver for smartphones; and DRM-compatible hardware makers CML Micro and Gospell. Starwaves, CML Micro and Gospell are members of the DRM Consortium.
