The new viewing experience benefits from the introduction of 5G cloud broadcast technology.

"Our INFO AV system for the Winter Olympic Organizing Committee will provide cloud-generated and published in-game news for 30 press rooms in 16 Winter Olympic venues, including the main media center." Zhang Pengzhou, chief technology officer of Beijing International Cloud Broadcasting Technology Co., Ltd., introduced that it will not only enrich the viewing experience of off-site audiences, but also enable journalists and athletes to achieve "face-to-face" dialogue interviews to the greatest extent even if they are not in the same space through the "remote unmanned mixed picking system".

In recent years, the application scenarios of 5G in mainland China have accelerated their expansion. The three major telecom operators have launched a variety of information services for individuals and integrated solutions for information services for families.

Among them, The number of 5G package users of China Telecom is about 180 million; China Mobile currently serves 370 million 5G package customers and 220 million home broadband customers, and at the same time, it has built 9 industries such as industrial Internet, smart transportation, and smart medical care, and has expanded more than 6,000 applications in the 5G industry.

From the perspective of the whole country, the establishment of industrial Internet networks, platforms and security systems has been accelerated, and there are more than 2,000 "5G + industrial Internet" projects under construction across the country.
