Broadcast TV and Internet TV combination provides best user experience
San Francisco, CA, USA, 13 September 2010 - Axel Technologies, a pioneer in mobile TV software technologies, introduces Fuugo™ to Intel Developer Forum (IDF) visitors and showcases how Fuugo™ unites live Broadcast TV with Internet TV.
Fuugo™ is the first TV application for personalizing a content stream by blending content choices from broadcast, mobile, and Internet TV. Fuugo™ utilizes social media, recommendations, and various content sources for presentation of TV and video programs that match your favourites, your interests, and what your social network likes.
Fuugo is suitable for all mobile and portable devices with screen size between 3” and 24”. It is the first TV and video application with touchscreen optimized user interface. This is why it provides the perfect match for media centric tablet devices.
Fuugo™ made its industry entry at Mobile World Congress 2010 in Barcelona this February. Two months later Fuugo™ Broadcast TV was live at NAB in Las Vegas in April. Now at IDF, Axel Technologies is demonstrating how Fuugo™ unites Internet TV and live broadcast TV.
“Regardless of the changing landscape of TV and strong growth of Internet TV, live Broadcast TV is still the most popular form of TV. With Fuugo™, TV viewers can enjoy the benefits of both worlds seamlessly. Fuugo™ combines different content streams and makes the discovery easy. It is the most user friendly and advanced TV application out there,” comments Petri Kalske, CEO of Axel Technologies.
The scalability of Fuugo™ makes it suitable for various screen sizes to fit all devices from handheld TV to your TV set at home. Fuugo™ now supports all Intel enabled devices including laptops, netbooks, smartphones and tablets.
Intel Developer Forum takes place in San Francisco, CA from 13th – 15th September. If you want to book a meeting with the Axel team and Fuugo™, please email contact (at) axel.fi.
