Abstract
Digital TV is an area where interaction is expected to become increasingly prevalent in the next few years. Graphics technologies like VRML that are designed for distributing applications provide a presentation engine that can serve as a foundation for moving visual enhancements from the studio to the consumer platform. As these enhancements move downstream to viewers, they introduce capabilities for compelling interaction. We have developed a prototype that extends VRML to support interactive TV applications, specifically focusing on enhancements for sports broadcasts. Our extensions are built on Blendo, a presentation engine developed in Sony that derives from VRML. This paper describes the context for our extensions and the specific extensions that we have developed so far.
