Infosys will showcase different ways that consumers may experience television in the future via multi-channel natural user interfaces at Imagine Park, an interactive, high-profile platform for introducing and demonstrating innovative new products and services at The Cable Show 2012. Infosys, rather than using a remote control, will also demonstrate how digital consumers can use voice, facial-recognition and simple gesture-based movements to access their personalized content and interact with the set-top-box of the future.
Natural user interfaces (NUI) - touch, voice, video and gesture interfaces - in devices ranging from smartphones and tablets to peripherals such as videogame consoles provide an opportunity for cable companies to deliver personalized interactive customer experiences.
From the perspective of cable multiple services operators, multi-channel user interfaces will enable service providers to increase customer loyalty, emphasize personalization and help add interactive revenue-generating channels to differentiate their television service offerings.
