Abstract

The main purpose of the research and development activities presented in this paper is related to the content development techniques for the ITV. It deals with the development of a real-time immersive and interactive TV show based on a DVB-MHP technology. It is basically a TV quiz that can be played from home thanks to virtual avatars that simulate the behaviors of the players. In fact, the immersive and interactive dimensions require a new gaming concept that renders the viewers as active and participative actors. This work has been achieved under RTI-TVS ESA (European Spatial Agency) project.
