“We’re dedicated to bringing the best possible 3D experience into the living room,” explains Robert Herring Sr., founder and CEO of WealthTV.  “Live events such as boxing and concerts bring an added level of excitement to our 3D network.  By utilizing the versatile and incredibly mobile Flypak™ that TV Pro Gear has designed, we have the flexibility to broadcast anything from larger live arena events to more intimate venues with the same great 3D quality.”
