Television sets will soon have inbuilt tuners to ensure viewers get all Free-To-Air DD channels without the need for a set-top box. Doordarshan is in the process of phasing out Analog transmission as the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) has published the Indian Standard speci?cation for digital television receivers with built-in satellite tuners. <br />''<br />''At present, TV viewers in the country need to purchase a set-top box even for the reception of Free-To-Air channels transmitted by Doordarshan. TVs manufactured as per this Indian standard would enable reception of Free-To-Air TV and Radio channels just by connecting a dish antenna with a low-noise block mounted on a suitable place. This initiative is expected to facilitate the transmission of knowledge about government initiatives, schemes, educational content, and other programs to reach and benefit a wide segment of the country's population.<br />''<br />''The BIS also published the Indian Standard for USB Type C receptacles, plugs, and cables to provide common charging solutions for smartphones and other electronic devices sold in the country. This also aims at limiting e-waste.<br />''<br />''In its third standard, the BIS published Indian Standards for Video Surveillance Systems for use in Security Applications. This would assist customers, installers, and users in establishing their requirements, and determining the appropriate equipment required for their intended application. This is expected to make the surveillance system more secure, robust, and cost-effective as well.<br />''<br />''<br />
