Voice-activated Recap Experience for SmartTV
Lab UX Innovations Lab Year 2012
Team Parker Kuncl, Dhana Dhanasarnsombat, Suranjit Adhikari
The Recap feature is a helpful tool that allows users to quickly catch up on TV programs they missed and explore related information. Here is a scenario: a sports fan just missed a few minutes of their favorite sports program on their smart TV. The viewer can simply say "Recap" to activate the interactive Recap function. The smart TV will replay the section of the program they missed a few minutes ago. Additionally, the TV provides information and statistics about the athletes featured in the program, making it easy for viewers to stay updated on the latest news and developments in sports.
