LOS ANGELES—The 2016 HPA Tech Retreat is now accepting proposals for presentations for the main program and breakfast roundtables taking place Feb. 17-19. Presentation topics may include anything related to moving images and associated sounds, including areas like augmented reality, energy use for HDR TV sets, soundfields, terabit transmissions, x-rays in 8K and more.

No formal submissions are required, simply provide a sentence or two on the topic and HPA will reach out if it needs more info. Presentations in the main program are typically a half-hour, including set-up and Q&A; requests must be submitted for a different duration.
