Abstract

Nowadays, TV experience has been transformed from the traditional "laid-back" video watching experience to a "lean-forward" social and multi-screen experience. In this demo, we design and develop a multi-screen cloud social TV system in response to this trend. Our system is built upon two enabling technologies, including a cloud based back-end infrastructure and a multi-screen front-end application. We demonstrate two key features of our system based on real user scenarios, including a living-room video watching experience with remote viewers, and the video teleportation as an enhanced multi-screen experience.
