<strong>Accenture</strong> Connected TV <strong>Video</strong> <strong>Solution</strong> Set-Top Box Framework Gaming Console Android Tablet, Smartphones Laptop Mobile Phone iPadTM connected TVs, gaming consoles, Blu-ray<br />

systems and mobile devices including<br />

Android phones. This scalable capability<br />

can help companies leverage the power<br />

of the almost-continuous influx of<br />

innovative consumer electronics devices<br />

in the marketplace. With the <strong>Accenture</strong><br />

platform, companies can re-use functionality<br />

across devices, including login and<br />

customer profile, remote control and<br />

cross-playback, unified electronic<br />

program guide, favorites and alerting.<br />

Virtual linear channels<br />

Broadcasters can expand the number of<br />

traditional digital terrestrial television<br />

(DTT) channels, enabling viewers to skip<br />

forward and backward using the channel<br />

program guide.<br />

Personal TV experience<br />

With the <strong>Accenture</strong> <strong>Video</strong> <strong>Solution</strong>, each<br />

member of a household can generate<br />

a personalized profile, so the viewing<br />

experience they access and receive is<br />

tailored to their interests, habits and<br />

preferences. Users can customize their<br />

own TV interests, choose categories specific<br />

to their needs, share content with<br />

others, and configure the home TV as a<br />

personal viewing device with the same<br />

configuration used on the Web TV<br />

accessed with a PC. They can also use a<br />

mobile phone or PC to schedule TV or<br />

set-top box content—programming,<br />

recording and purchasing content for<br />

broadband video on demand and live<br />

broadcast events.<br />

Enhanced profiling to support<br />

targeted advertising and content<br />

recommendations<br />

Because users customize their viewing<br />

experience and create a profile of their<br />

interests, operators can understand<br />

their preferences more deeply. And<br />

that knowledge can command higher<br />

advertising revenues, attracting more<br />

advertisers who can target messages at<br />

a much more granular level. Having a<br />

viewing profile means that a person can<br />

receive content suggestions through an<br />

innovative content recommendation<br />

engine. This capability can increase video<br />

on demand service usage and revenue<br />

generation from pay-per-view events.<br />

Consumers can also receive more<br />

targeted personal advertising based on<br />

their profiles and viewing habits.<br />

Social network integration<br />

The <strong>Accenture</strong> solution helps providers<br />

to link their offerings to their preferred<br />

social network, enhancing the user<br />

experience and establishing a foundation<br />

for innovative services that leverage the<br />

power of social media.<br />

Digital Rights Management integration<br />

The <strong>Accenture</strong> <strong>Video</strong> <strong>Solution</strong> helps<br />

companies address the challenge of<br />

distributing broadband and broadcast<br />

content with many different Digital<br />

Rights Management technologies and<br />

standards. AVS supports a multi-DRM<br />

approach.<br />

User interface optimization<br />

Viewing video on different devices<br />

requires attention to the “unique form”<br />

factor and experience of each device.<br />

The <strong>Accenture</strong> solution calibrates graphic<br />

rendering for each device, tailoring the<br />

user experience according to the device’s<br />

capabilities.<br />

Device integration roadmap<br />

<strong>Accenture</strong> helps companies plot an<br />

effective path forward as new and<br />

different devices are enabled. Ongoing<br />

enhancements and releases of the<br />

<strong>Accenture</strong> platform support the integration<br />

of new generations of devices.<br />

Interoperability across<br />

Content Delivery Networks (CDNs)<br />

This functionality allows an operator to<br />

balance video streaming traffic generated<br />

by users from different devices (such<br />

as Web TV, set-top boxes, tablets) on<br />

multiple Content Delivery Networks—<br />

through pre-defined, specific policies<br />

(for example, percentage, time period,<br />

thresholds). This innovative capability<br />

allows for effective management of<br />

content distribution costs to network<br />

providers. Policies are easily configurable<br />

thanks to the dedicated user interface.<br />
