[itvt] is pleased to announce the tvot^ Hackathon, an event that brings together hackers and creatives to envision and build the TV of Tomorrow.
The Hackathon is not only meant to honor the innovative spirit of Philo Farnsworth, the originator of electronic television, but will take place in the very building where Farnsworth invented electronic television back in 1927!
What is the TV of Tomorrow? We’ll leave that entirely up to your vision and creativity! However, it could encompass such platforms, technologies and user experiences as the second screen (smartphones, tablets, etc.), game consoles, connected set-top boxes, smart TV’s, gestural control, voice control, automatic content recognition, augmented reality, rich interactivity, gamification, personalization, audience participation, social media integration, geolocation, transmedia storytelling, and more.
