At NAB 2017, Source Digital will exhibit a series of exciting ways content owners and brands can utilize its SourceSync.io platform to create viewer engagement and monetization strategies for multi-screen viewing. The technology enables viewers to intuitively and instantly discover and access related experiences while viewing programming on any device – smart phone, tablet, computer and traditional TV. The company will also be demonstrating patented solutions that enable a range of user engagement capabilities.
“NAB is the premiere event for the digital media, entertainment and technology industry to discover new technology, strategies and business models,” says Hank Frecon, CEO, Source Digital. “Source Digital has embraced content delivery and the omni-screen world, and is primed to address the associated emerging opportunities that will prove value to decision-makers attending the NAB show.”
Established as an open platform strategy, SourceSync.io seamlessly interfaces with any existing asset management system, production or postproduction data source to virtually sync it with new data for alignment at any moment in time within the content. By creating an extended sync database to the content, the user engagement remains evergreen for the content’s entire lifecycle allowing perpetual discovery and even consumer contribution. This includes use of advanced cognitive capture and alignment resources allowing an unlimited amount of data to be structured and stored against any frame of video. In addition, these stores of captured metadata can be leveraged across traditional TV, film, OTT and OVP platform delivery, including use of the emerging Dolby® AC-4 ATSC standard for personalization and content discovery.
