Stand 1.B22 - Alticast, a global partner for the delivery of media entertainment, and Strategy & Technology (S&T), an independent developer of interactive TV technologies, will demonstrate to attendees of IBC 2014 how the companies combined technologies enable broadcasters to deliver ATSC 2.0 applications by overlaying graphics onto their video content. This combined tool set and complete framework brings together TV and web technologies to give broadcasters the means to deliver a new generation of iTV services and advanced advertising applications. The demonstration will take place at S&T's IBC booth (Hall 1, Booth B22), September 12- 16, at the Amsterdam RAI Exhibition and Congress Centre.
This joint demonstration takes advantage of the triggers provided in ATSC 2.0 that enable broadcasters to synchronize applications with programming content. The demonstration includes an Alticast enabled set-top box (STB) running the company's TV Ready User Agent (TVRUA), which provides a robust browser and application life cycle control for managing applications. S&T's tools insert ATSC 2.0 triggers into recorded and live content, and Alticast has integrated the ability to recognise these triggers and facilitate the launch of web-based HTML5 applications. These applications can be delivered from web servers to the screen providing a broadcast solution for interactive TV.
S&T's new OnScreen Publisher and the Alticast TVPlay application store can be used by application developers to create, manage, monitor and release applications for broadcaster use. These web-based applications can provide interaction to the viewer, and collect input response so results can be aggregated and reported back to the broadcaster. Reality TV voting, campaign polling and advertising call-to-actions are examples of the types of interactive applications broadcasters could deploy. Tablet and mobile interactions can also be designed as part of the application.
The new iTV capabilities of ATSC 2.0 are huge for broadcasters who are eager to offer a more interactive TV experience for viewers and advertisers, said John Carlucci, CTO of Alticast U.S. Together with our partner S&T, we are showing broadcasters how our joint solution enables them to take advantage of ATSC 2.0 to deliver a range of interactive TV and advertising applications.
We are delighted to be working with Alticast to bring this demonstration to IBC. The use of OnScreen Publisher and our trigger insertion toolsets has enabled us to provide a compelling demonstration of the interactivity that ATSC 2.0 makes available to broadcasters, said Adrian Fowkes, Engineering Director at Strategy & Technology.
