Abstract

GeoTV is a project that explores seamless integration of mobile phones, HDTV sets, and computers in the living room to enrich the user experience of existing services. The three-screen service allows a user to navigate a world map on a smart phone to track geo-located media RSS content that matches her personal interests. The user can show a matching video clip on her phone or direct a nearby HDTV set to play the video. In addition, the user can bring up a world map on a nearby computer screen to navigate areas of interest related to the video clip. GeoTV allows all three screens to be used for what they are best for: HDTV for high resolution video, computer screen for browsing a world map, and a smart phone for personalized control at hand to select media of interest.
