This paper aims to present a study regarding interoperability for interactive digital television systems. Experimental setups are carried out in order to propose a first step to coexist different digital TV systems and second screens software components. This study motivates improvements aiming to proceed field tests involving households.
GLOBAL ITV project is an initiative for global standards applied to iTV. Ginga-NCL and HbbTV integration in a terminal device was reached including compatibility for HTML5 in a hybrid environment. Next steps consists to establish a web-based platform and aggregate iTV players as a browser plug-ins.
This work objectively proposes and describes the development project of a Charpy Pendulum Testing Machine, which is a low-cost tool designed for the academic environment. The tool has been developed to be used in laboratories that perform mechanical tests of impact and also as a result of an important partnership between students and researchers from UMC and EPUSP.
This paper deals with concepts about the electromyographic signal (EMG), which is a record of action potentials presented by the muscles, and presents the development of a low-cost conditioning circuit for electromyographic signals, including component blocks capable of signal processing and adaptation for microcontrolling devices.
Computing swarms, consisting of smart networked sensors and actuators in the connected world, enable an extension of the info-sphere into the physical world. We call this extended cyber-physical info-sphere Swarm. This work presents a proposal for the Swarm Framework Architecture. Envisioning the Swarm ecosystem, challenges and characteristics were identified and a control plane framework was proposed...
This paper presents an interoperability analysis of Ginga-NCL and HbbTV applications, which consist on using a NCL player implemented as a web application to be executed on an HbbTV platform. This work presents the integration of a web-based NCL player and the subsequent testing using an HbbTV emulator.
This paper presents a user-centered mobile solution to evaluate the performance and success of the service's infrastructure at the level of Urban Mobility, Tourism, Airports (Air Transport), Stadium (Arenas) and security in mega events. This infrastructure is noted from the perspective of legacies and its impact is evaluated through a collaborative process between the KPI, as a tool installed on each...
Recently, the industry and the research community have been exploring the use of more than one screen for the experience of interactivity with media content, primarily involving the TV. The techniques directly related with audio for second screen synchronization - the sound detection using the audio fingerprint technique - are well established. Experiments using audio watermark might reveal good solutions...
This work presents an open source and low cost solution to validate consumer electronics middleware using a generic platform. A development solution using Raspberry Pi Model B Revision 2 single-board computer is shown and a study case was executed. The results points out that software validation have been executed with a satisfactory behavior, becoming a low cost and open source alternative to consumer...
This paper aims to present a model for an interactive and hybrid digital TV focused on global services and applications framework. The model proposed aims to improve the hybrid broadcast-broadband model with features which run worldwide using a PaaS cloud service, browser applications in a global compliance and second screen scenarios involving pervasive computing. The proposed architecture and a...
