Eureka ITEA2 WellCom Project
Eureka ITEA 2 WellCom was a collaborative research project running under the ITEA2 programme within the EUREKA framework. It was launched in April 2007 and ended in October 2009. The WellCom consortium was composed of 15 European organizations including Large companies, SMEs, research institutes and universities. The research effort is supported in part by the different European Public Authorities involved in the project.
It is one out of the many projects dealing with Interactive_tv. What is in common in all these projects is the involvement of users in the TV, which thus turns into an interactive device rather than a broadcast device.
The main outcome of the WellCom project was a set of demonstrators, showing
- the interactivity of Bluetooth and NFC for personalisation of content
- voting and gaming on the mobile phone, with the same questions to be asked as in the main TV show
- chat with your friends watching the same TV show, but sitting at a remote place.
