2. Demand for High-Definition (HD) and Ultra-High-Definition (UHD) Content: Consumers are increasingly seeking superior picture quality and more immersive viewing experiences. This influences service providers to upgrade their infrastructure to accommodate HD and 4K content delivery. This transition drives the need for advanced set-top boxes capable of decoding and streaming high-resolution formats. Furthermore, the increasing adoption of UHD televisions is further fueling the demand for compatible set-top boxes, ensuring smooth content delivery. This trend is boosting sales in both residential and commercial sectors. The UHD production across southeast Asia is growing. As of November 2024, Southeast Asia's broadcasting industry is undergoing a major transformation, marked by a sharp rise in demand for Ultra High Definition (UHD) content. This shift is fueled by viewers' growing preference for high-quality, cinematic viewing experiences. FOR-A is playing a leading role in this evolution by delivering cutting-edge solutions that address the industry's changing needs and expectations. Moreover, in May 2022, South Korea's SK Telecom (SKT) successfully delivered Ultra High Definition (UHD) broadcast content to viewers in Seoul through the deployment of its 5G network integrated with a multi-access edge computing (MEC) platform, demonstrating advanced capabilities in next-generation content delivery.
3. Rising Demand for Over-the-Top (OTT) Streaming Services: Over-the-top (OTT) streaming has emerged as a major disruptor in the entertainment industry, fundamentally transforming global media consumption habits. According to the Dacast, in March 2025, the OTT industry continues to grow; 24.6 million US households have already disconnected their traditional TV service. This trend is projected to accelerate, with an estimated 49.6 million US households expected to make the switch by the end of 2025. Moreover, in December 2024, Gemius, a prominent provider of cross-media solutions, enhanced its research efforts in the German market through the launch of connected TV measurement. This advanced panel-based solution currently features YouTube streaming and is set to incorporate Netflix and other over-the-top (OTT) platforms in the near future.
4. Technological Advancements: Advancements in set-top box technology include integrated streaming services, support for 4K and HDR content, improved performance through faster processors and expanded storage capacity, as well as the use of AI and machine learning to enable voice assistants and personalized content recommendations. Additionally, enhanced IoT connectivity and robust content security features are being incorporated to meet the evolving demands of consumers and industries.
