Project description
IST-2005-2.41.6
Citizen-Media is a collaborative research project on audio-visual systems to enable multiple non-professional users to co-create networked applications based on their own user-generated content. In this project new ways are investigated on how to exploit the huge amount of user-generated content in innovative ways to support the people in their daily life and how technology will enable social change to strongly involve users for co-creating networked applications. This work will introduce new concepts that may modify the role of stakeholders in classical value chain for content delivery.To that aim applications, services, systems, infrastructure, technology and architectures are developed based on a user-centric approach. The goal is to enable any user at any location with any device to consume, author and publish his own content towards a networked audio visual system. Based on user-generated media recorded by different users at different times, an open and flexible architecture will be proposed that creates a novel networked application each time a user uploads new content. The underlying infrastructure hides the complexity of content handling for the end user by supporting trans-coding of formats, customisation and mixing of personal and private content. To facilitate co-creation requires that the audio visual system is able to handle a massive amount of user-generated content in different formats in real time, annotate and store this content into huge databases, search, retrieve, process and render all these pieces of user-generated content to create a new experience. Combined with new technology for collaborative communication and easy and multimodal user interfaces, this will lead to appealing new applications. End-to-end service delivery, network and operational scalability are considered over converged broadcast and IP communication networks, over mobile and fixed access networks to heterogeneous terminals in and outside the home.
