Interactivity is key to IPTV adoption. From HD (High Definition) VoD (Video-on-Demand) services to EPG (Electronic Program Guide) and web browsing: the IP STB (Set-top Box) delivers it all. Interactivity in the IPTV market focuses on communication between home users and video services. RADVISION takes IPTV a step further enabling real-time interactivity between people.

The IP STB is fast becoming the entertainment epicenter of the digital home. Adding live, person-to-person video communications is the next step in enhancing the user experience. Chipset vendors and IP STB developers can incorporate RADVISION’s technologies into their solutions, enabling these innovative new services to be offered to end users

  • Click-to-dial via the Web
    Using the browser to surf through Internet sites on a TV, users can click on dynamic links to immediately receive personalized video calls to sales agents or other representatives.
  • Interactive video calling
    People will be able to conveniently dial from the comfort of their living room or den to friends and family through the TV, and receive voice and video calls in an easy-to-use manner.
  • 3-way conferencing
    Video calling supports multiparty communications, a compelling value added service that brings together several family members or friends.
  • Presence and IM
    STBs can leverage the wide deployment of IM and presence systems to deliver this familiar method of communication between family and friends. Dialing through presence information instead of memorizing numbers, and the possibility of sending instant messages, instead of calling, enhances the user experience.
  • TV video show sharing
    As STB platforms become more robust, the possibility of managing several media streams simultaneously on a split screen enables simultaneous TV viewing and video calls. This adds an entirely new dimension to sports broadcasts and gaming.
  • Quad-play connection to mobile
    STBs also support quad-play, by adding mobile connectivity solutions. This makes the STB the communication device of choice while at home and when communicating to mobile phones.

All this is made possible with RADVISION’s standards-based Multimedia Terminal Framework, a comprehensive package of real-time, bidirectional visual communication technologies for visual communications available today.
