Panasonic technology is continuing a 28-year tradition to support the Olympic Games as a Official Worldwide Partner in the AV and Equipment Category. On the verge of the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, we are taking a look back at our 28-year partnership. Today we flash back to the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, the first Olympic Games for which official video footage was produced in an HD format and all thrilling competitive scenes were recorded as superb high-definition images.

Broadcasting Equipment
The official footage of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games was the first ever filmed entirely in Full HD. High-definition video captured inspiring scenes of the competition. Panasonic supplied a full line-up of HD technological equipment to Olympic competition venues, broadcast sites, and residences across the world, to transmit the 17 days of excitement.
ASTROVISION Large-Screen Display System
Panasonic provided 25 ASTROVISION screens across 18 Olympic venues. The newer high-luminance LED ASTROVISION model was significantly leaner and more energy efficient when compared to the model used for the Atlanta 1996 Olympic Games. During the Games, this new ASTROVISION displayed many inspiring scenes.
RAMSA Professional Audio System
Panasonic supplied a total of 284 sound systems across 41 Olympic venues. In the large stadium, powerful sounds conveyed the excitement and emotion of the Games through specially-designed speakers, feeding high-quality sounds to every corner of the venue.
