Why?

How?

What?

There are more Internet-connected devices for TV viewing. Consumers are seeking Internet information while watching main video content. Current second screen solutions have limited coverage and refer to programming as a whole.

LinkedTV aims for a generic solution for attaching related content to fragments of audiovisual material.

A key aim is lowering the cost for media owners to annotate their material and generate links to related content at object level.Another is provide a UI and UX for viewers to easily and non disruptively browse between audiovisual material and its enrichments

LinkedTV provides a Platform which integrates thefunctional components of linking TV and the Web:

§ Media analysis § Semantic annotation § Expanding the annotations using online domain ontologies § Adding links to related content based on Web APIs and content crawls over whitelisted sources § Personalisation of the enrichments according to user behaviour and interest § Adaptation of the enrichments to the end device

The full end to end workflow is available to media owners via an easy to use Web API.

LinkedTV playout can be on a single TV screen or linked to it from a personal second screen.

Watch TV; see the concepts being addressed in the program; browse to suggested related content. Share and bookmark enrichments for later!
