Korea's T-Broad Deploys Alticast

May 31, 2013 |
SEOUL -- Alticast, the leader in interactive TV open standard software solutions today announced that T-Broad, Korea’s largest Cable MSO, has deployed Alticast’s Windmill Ecosystem. Based on the HTML5 next generation open web standard, Windmill provides T-Broad with a powerful future proofed TV application development platform free from vendor lock-in.

Alticast’s Windmill is an ecosystem of open modular technologies to enable service providers to quickly and cost-effectively deploy innovative services. It allows T-Broad to utilize the huge pool of HTML5 developers to design and build their next generation interactive TV experience. Through its native support for HTML5, Alticast’s Windmill makes it easy for T-Broad to follow its plans to launch companion device services encompassing smart phones, tablets, etc.

The T-Broad UI/UX enabled by Windmill is proof that the user experience can be as aesthetically impressive as it is functional, balancing an attractive look and feel while preserving an intuitive and simple design. The Windmill UI/UX has enabled T-Broad to break free from the traditional grid UI that has for decades been the viewers’ main method of interacting with the TV. The new translucent UI that Alticast and T-Broad have designed and developed is an exciting, fresh way for consumers to interact with the TV and enables this without obstructing TV viewing.
