Zeitera Introduces SDK for Vvid ACR Platform that Enables 3rd Party Mobile Apps to Time-Align With TV Content
Zeitera's Vvid ACR (Automatic Content Recognition) SDK allows mobile developers to easily synchronize Second Screen applications with Broadcast Television content. The Vvid SDK provides access to Libraries and APIs that enable programmers, networks, and interactive content developers to quickly integrate Vvid ACR technologies into their Smart Phone and Tablet applications to provide an enhanced TV experience.
LAS VEGAS, April 8, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- NAB 2011 Booth, SU 894 -- Zeitera, a startup based in Mountain View, CA and the developer of Vvid, a leading content identification platform for ACR applications, is announcing today the availability of a Smart Phone and Tablet SDK and API Development toolkit for programmers, broadcast networks, CE manufacturers and interactive TV application developers. At NAB 2011 Zeitera will be showing how ACR services can be enabled by the microphone of a Vvid enabled Smart Phone or Tablet listening to a broadcast TV channel on an ordinary TV set. "The Vvid Mobile API and SDK Development Platform for iOS and Android fills the needs of those broadcasters and content owners that would like to have Smart Phone and Tablet applications that are able to synchronize with their TV programs, commercials and movies. Zeitera enables them to develop interactive communities engaged with their content and offer advanced advertising opportunities," said Dan Eakins, CEO, Zeitera. He continued, "Zeitera is pioneering the market for white label ACR services and has several partners signed on developing applications with these APIs." Zeitera will also demonstrate a sample application on iOS that makes use of these APIs to identify TV programs and commercials.
