Paris (France) & Amsterdam (Netherlands), October 11th, 2012 -
Technicolor

long-
standing customer Portugal Telecom, a number of innovative Apps for the

sector. In

A range of innovative Connected Home applications
On the Technicolor booth, the two companies will demonstrate how
combining
storage and social networking can turn all screens in the home into a
powerful
multimedia sharing network, accessible seamlessly through legacy
social
networks.
Technicolor will also unveil advanced video chat scenarios, bridging
service
providers' communications infrastructure and legacy over-the-top
services, to
create seamless video call experiences on all screens in the home. In
addition,
they will demonstrate how service providers can bridge different home
automation
ecosystems - Zigbee, Z-wave, or any other - to deliver an integrated
experience
to consumers.
With its Applications' Dashboard (which allows consumers and service
providers
to deploy dynamically the applications remotely on all screens),
Technicolor is
enabling service providers to create new revenue streams, while keeping
full
control of service monetization.
Michel Rahier, President of Technicolor Connected Home Division said:
"The
applications we will demonstrate at BBWF are only an overview of the
many
innovations to come to the Connected Home in the near future. We are
