What is IPTV?

The cooperation between Interoud and Blusens, as software and hardware developers, has resulted
in the birth of a true NEXTGEN IPTV system that is able to fulfil every requirement the Operator may
need. From standard TV channels distribution, to HDTV, Video-on-Demand, Time-shift, personalized
advertisement schemes and sponsorships, direct purchase from the TV, Digital Signage and more.

Such solutions play a very important role in the hospitality sector as they provide the tools to increase
the comfort level of their guests/patients, as well as the overall revenue. With this IPTV system, the
hotel can offer enhanced entertainment services at a Premium, increase the availability of other hotel
services (Room Service, Laundry, Restaurant Reservations, Spa, Sports activities, Gift Shops, etc.)
while getting valuable data as to what their guests are watching, what channels are popular, what
IPTV Standard Platform content type gets the most income, what hotel services have more demand, etc.

Thus, IPTV by Blusens provides a true added-value tool to the operator that will, unobtrusively and
The development of new technologies over IP Networks continues to contribute to the integration of a variety of reliably, increase the revenue on a system that otherwise only represents an added cost.
services. These expand from the basic Ethernet network for computer interconnection, to DSL lines for internet access,
IP telephony or the most advanced automation and control systems.

The advantage of a standard communication technology over a single network allows the simplification of the cabling
network, enables the integration of varied services, which guarantees the compatibility with future technological
developments, and facilitates the monitoring, security and control of any installation.

Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) is one of the services that now can also integrate with the structured cable network
of a building. Such revolutionary change in the way TV signal is distributed significantly improves the signal quality,
interactivity and control, giving the operators a plethora of options to monitor, add services, maximize audience and
improve the return on the investment.

What can IPTV do for you?

Cable TV Operators
IPTV by Blusens full-fledged solution enhances the services the operator
can provide as it is fully interactive in every possible way. Direct TV purchase
becomes a true reality for varied forms of products and services. Also, it allows
the creation of Portals for different On-Demand content, Pay-per-View, and Live
events. Our system enhances the data gathering of user consumption, enabling
the use of complex statistics that will serve as a tool for continuous improvement
and detection of overlooked niche markets.

Hotels, Resorts, Compounds, Restaurants


The complete solution offers a centralized point to control and monitor the guest’s
consumption and usage of the entertainment system, providing useful statistics
that can be used to tailor make the packages offered based on their origin, age
group, income, occupation, etc. The On-Demand content and some LiveTV chan-
nels can be offered in various languages and with captions to provide the closest
sensation to a Home Cinema that a hotel can offer, while giving the Operator a
variety of tools to insert various types of advertising formulas. All fully linked to
the central Building Management System. Billing is, thus, seamlessly integrated.

Hospitals
Added to the general Hospitality functionality, IPTV can record, and make available
to the user network, any workshop, lecture, seminar or procedure carried out in
the facility, thus enhancing the practise and resources available to the Hospital.
The offer to the patient can even include the meal selection from his physician’s
approved menu.

Corporate or Government Networks


The integration of the video streams in an existing IP infrastructure makes
possible the reception of any content on any facility, even on mobile devices. With
an IPTV platform all the multimedia content generated in courses, seminars or
master lectures can be recorded and redistributed live during the event or later,
to feed STB, PCs inside the complex, Digital Signage panels or via an internet web
portal.

Educational Facilities
Using the Corporate services as a base, an education institution may be interested
in adding notes to the video or a real time messaging feature to allow the users
watching a live event like a surgery to share opinions and comments with other
users.

System Architecture

1. The VoDKAST Middleware server creates the STB menus by accessing the
metadata information of the videos from the VoD cluster (movie name,
actors, director, etc.) and the EPG information from the live and playout
channels while considering the user access rights and credit information
obtained from the PMS. Thus, the menu is customized for each guest.

2. The hotel operator can fine tune the platform through the management
console. The Middleware Server also monitors the current state of each
part of the system and triggers the proper alerts to the management
consoles in case of any problem.

3. The VoD Streaming Cluster stores all the videos in its storage nodes and
streams it to the network through the streaming nodes. The platform
allows an unlimited number of streamer and storage nodes to increase the
storage or streaming capacity independently from each other according to
the operator needs.

4. The IP Contribution System obtains the live DVB-S, DVB-C and DVB-T
MPEG-2 streams from satellite, cable or terrestrial feeds and injects them
into the IP network as IP multicast streams.

5. The Playout Server generates continuous loop streams of stored contents


as IP multicast streams.

6. The NetPVR server stores local recordings of live TV channels to provide


time-shifting features to the platform.

7. The Digital Signage server controls the digital signage screens and split
its layout in several regions that can be filled with any multimedia content,
even Adobe Flash.

8. The Ethernet Switches aggregate the outputs of all the servers and carry
the video streams to the screens through the IP network. IPTV Architecture Graphic

9. The integrated solution allows several types of STB and screens working
together: Standalone STB screen, Standard PCs screens and Low or High
Connectivity Digital signage screen. Any IPTV content (live, playout, VoD,
etc.) can be displayed in any of the STB types.

Digital Contribution

The digital contribution IP Streamer offers a complete professional video head-end solution. It is built around a
modular platform, that brings the capability of hosting as many tuning modules as required.
This way, the scalability of the platform is assured by providing a higher density, lower cost and better reliability
system due to its integrated architecture.
The IP Streamers can receive MPEG-2 transport streams from a variety of input sources (ASI, DVB-S/S2, DVB-T,
IP and DVB-C, with QPSK, 8PSK, COFDM or QAM modulations) and can descramble and re-scramble selected
services, before streaming it via IP or ASI.
All the elements of the system are continuously monitored, including decoding CAM modules via a web-based
Management Interface, which enables remote configuration of all modules,real time status of their performance,
and presentation of service related information. The streamer supports full analysis of PSI/SI (PSIP in later
release) and regenerates all tables as required.

•  GB IP (electrical or optical), ASI, DVB-S/S2, DVB-T and DVB-C inputs.


•  GB IP (electrical or optical) and ASI output MPTS or SPTS. Supports multiple

The contribution head-end, part of the Blusens blu:core line, is the part of the system in charge of
obtaining live content from any source and perform the appropriate operations to transform this feeds
SC/CAB1PSSW 10 Slot Contribution Chassis
into multicast IP streams capable of being transferred through the IP network. Once these streams are
in IP format, the middleware is the responsible of granting or revoking the access of each STB to them. SC/CAB1PSSW- 10 Slot Contribution Chassis
IPOUT
According to the source of the live video the contribution can be digital or analog. In the first case the SC/CAB1PSSW- 10 Slot Contribution Chassis
feeds will come from satellite (DVB-S) terrestrial (DVB-T) or cable (DVB-C) broadcasts. On the other IPOUT4CI
hand, for the analog contribution, the input will be composite or s-video, both in PAL or NTSC formats.
•  Up to 24 ASI or 16 DVB-S/S2, DVB-T, DVB-C Inputs.
•  Up to 8 DVB common interface slots for DVB descrambling.
As the content distributed in DVB-S/T/C is already an MPEG2-TS stream, the operation performed
by the digital contribution is remove the QPSK, QAM or any other transport layer and substitute it
by IP. That's why the digital video stream is not modified in any moment and the broadcast quality is
maintained during the whole distribution of the channel through the IP network. SC/CAB4PS-03 16 Slot Contribution Chassis

For the analog contribution option, the first step is encoding the original analog source into MPEG-2 SC/CAB4PS-04 16 Slot Contribution Chassis
digital format. Once this step is done, the stream behaves exactly the same as a digital stream being
transferred through the network. •  Up to 45 ASI or 28 DVB-S/S2, DVB-T, DVB-C Inputs.
•  Up to 14 DVB common interface slots for DVB descrambling.

DIGITAL
SIGNAGE
74 Digital Signage Digital Signage 75

What is Digital Signage?

It is a new and cost effective way of increasing brand or product visibility in


public areas. Using IP technology we can create advertising channels that provide
wanted information and, thus, attract an attention that static advertising may not.
Furthermore, the marketing campaign can be much more defined and focused,
issuing the message to the appropriate market profile, at the right location and
time, and creating a far more indelible impression.

The extensive experience and knowledge of the Pulsar product team, in both large
installation and VoD management, makes it the right tool to face any challenges
related to security, user experience, immediacy and management of remote
locations.

Pulsar is a complete product that enables the operator to have full control, from
a central location, of the full system, including screen layouts, content, program
grill, etc.

What can Digital Signage do for you?

Pulsar Digital signage solution allows you to create a multimedia advertising solution for providing content
to hundreds of screens simultaneously. It also allows you to manage and monitor on real time what is being
broadcast on each screen.

The playout solution is the simplest digital signage platform and allows you to feed the signage screens with a
full screen sequence of videos, but, if you want more flexibility for, for example showing more than one video at

Channel Generators
94 Channel Generators Channel Generators 95

The Channel Generators are the devices responsible of composing the final video stream by filling the
template defined at the Pulsar Signage Server with the media contents in a single video stream.

Depending on the reliability of the network the streams can be generated at the head-end level with
high connectivity channel generators.

The low connectivity solution is best suited to deployments where the permanent connection with the
screens can not be 100% assured. In this situations, the STB connected to the screen must have local
storage space to ensure 24x7 signage generation even during a network outing.

High Connectivity

The channel generator can be deployed at the head-end level, and its
output can be transferred through a trusted network.

GH.100 High Connectivity Channel Generator

Each high connectivity channel generator creates one multicast stream


that can be tuned by several STB, so it can feed an unlimited number
of screens with the same content. The connection between the STB and
the screen can be Composite, S-Video, components, VGA, DVI or HDMI

FACIAL
RECOGNITION
100 Facial Recognition Facial Recognition 101

What´s Facial Recognition?

The Blusens Facial Recognition system allows the manager of a public crowded place to gather
information about the people visiting such venue in real time. Shopping malls, Hospitals, Bank
branches, Airports, etc. are places suitable for this kind of systems.

The system consists in a series of small cameras strategically deployed on specific places, such
as adverstisement or ailes, where the crowd is expected to walk or to stop and pay attention to the
advertisement shown. The system is capable of detecting the face of each person in range and identify
the gender and the age, so the administrator can gather statistics about the kind of people at the venue
at any given moment.

The Facial Recognition system can even calculate the number of seconds each person spends in front of
the camera and determine for how long the person was looking to the camera directly during this period.
By using this mechanism the property owner can discover what is the age and gender distribution on a
specific moment of the day as well as if the latest changes in decoration or advertising are increasing
the attention spans of the visitors.

All the information gathered via different cameras is integrated into one single server to create
statistics defined specifically to fit the necessities of every authorized user of the platform. The access
to this statistics and reports can be done from any device (tablets, phones, computers, etc.)

The 4 Factors

1. Gender analisis: difference between men&women

2. Attendance and Attention. Attitude in front of the camera: Identifies who is looking at the screen or
just standing in front of it

3. Age group: And gives you the possibility to personalize real-time advertisement depending on the
age and gender

4. Traffic Monitoring: Relates people and time as we can know how many people stops in every point
per hour.
