Origin Digital and Akamai Technologies bring video into focus on "smart" devices

From the moment the iPhone came out to the masses in 2007, Origin Digital was one of the first to support the encoding of video for this revolutionary device. When live video capabilities were added in early 2009 with the release of iPhone OS 3.0, Origin Digital again was one of the first to support this capability and combined it with over a decade of live video event services. With state-of-the-art High Definition facilities in Denver and New York and our newest broadcast center in London, Origin Digital has the technologies and capabilities needed to power any size of event for the iPhone and the iPod touch, globally.

To ensure global users can view videos in consistent high quality, Origin Digital has partnered with Akamai Technologies and the Akamai HD Network. The Akamai HD Network is a unified platform for delivering the highest possible quality video experience at broadcast audience scale using Flash, Silverlight, and high-quality video on the iPhone. Its adaptive bitrate streaming capabilities ensure your customers get a TV-like viewing experience no matter what their internet connection.
