The Ensequence iTV Manager Interactive Platform Integrates With Zeitera's Vvid Automatic Content Recognition (ACR) System
(firmenpresse) - NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwire) -- 08/08/11 -- Ensequence and Zeitera today announced the integration of their products to enable programmers and advertisers to rapidly create, manage and deploy interactive applications running on smartphones and tablets that are synchronized with content on the TV screen.
The Ensequence integration with Zeitera enables programmers and advertisers to use the Ensequence iTV Manager® interactive platform to create synchronized and immersive two-screen experiences for TV shows and commercials. Automatic Content Recognition (ACR)-enabled applications on companion devices including smartphones and tablets help networks and advertisers create more engaging viewing experiences.
Examples of synchronized second screen interactive ACR applications include:
Social networking check-in and discussion
Voting, polling and RFI (Request for Information) experiences
Behind the scenes content delivery to the second screen
Coupon services for brand marketers
Branded Product Placement and Television Commerce ("T-Commerce")
Program discovery and recommendation
Advertisement enhancement, extended viewing and measurement
"Offering synchronized interactivity on tablets and smartphones is a great way to complement the programming and adverting offered on the TV -- which ultimately keeps viewers more deeply engaged with content," said Aslam Khader, Ensequence Chief Technology and Product Officer. "The Zeitera solution combined with iTV Manager -- our multi-platform management solution -- solves a huge problem for programmers and advertisers who are looking for one workflow to manage all of their connected device applications."
