Accedo, and Audible Magic recently announced that Accedo will integrate Audible Magic’s patented ACR solutions into its TV application solutions. The agreement gives Accedo and its customers a key enabling technology as they develop new social TV, interactive advertising, and other applications for the fast emerging – and converging – smart TV and smart device markets. In addition, it helps to strengthen Audible Magic’s position as a global leader in ACR.
For application developers and TV solution providers, today’s announcement also reflects a growing consensus worldwide of the need for ACR technology in a more tightly and closely connected – a more social – living room environment. For virtually every social TV, interactive advertising, or related application to fully succeed, more people close to these developments now contend, the ability of multiple devices to recognize aired content – even on live, never-before-shown programs – in real time is essential.
For Accedo, it is key to be able to offer a trusted content recognition solution to media companies and TV platforms, and together with our customers we see endless innovation possibilities.
