    ENABLING ENTERTAINMENT AND INFORMATION

    Entertainment and Information content is uploaded to the content management system which then synchronizes with the edge devices using either the Internet (if available) or a satellite.

     

    Individuals, using a basic tablet - could even be a Chromebook, and no internet connection, connect to the edge devices via Wi-Fi that have the entertainment and information content delivered onto them. In the most remote areas, a return data channel returns the statistics captured related to content engagement.

     

    Gathering Statistics: In all cases, a low bandwidth return data channel - could be satellite, fixed network, mobile, wireless - is used to deliver the statistics.

    INNOVATION AND QUALITY OF LIFE ENTERTAINMENT AND INFORMATION

    In both cases above, the innovation of this project is that the individuals accessing the content do not require an Internet connection, yet their experience would be as if they were connected.

     

    Utilizing our innovative approach, entertainment and information choices, especially to those in the remote parts of the world, bridges the digital divide and enhances the quality of life of many.

     

    By using a satellite to deliver any type of content, the solution enables users to have a really cool, multimedia experience, in a remote location, with the lowest possible cost, with the highest potential for user engagement and success.

    1. That content is prepared for distribution, is uploaded to the Satellite Content Management System (SCMS), which 'publishes' the content to the Noovo media gateways located throughout the country, that are connected to the satellite. 
    2. The content is then delivered via satellite using the Quadrille software to the media gateways that have been deployed. Once the content is residing on the media gateways, those requiring access utilize an Android or iOS device and a standard Wi-Fi connection.
    3. Once the Noovo media gateways located throughout the country are provisioned, all types of entertainment and information content (video, audio, files (e.g. PDFs), is now accessible to users.
    4. Content is accessed  by users via private and dedicated Wi-Fi network that is created by the Noovo media gateways.
    5. Users, utilizing a smart device,  such as phone, tablet, notebook or Chromebook, interact with the content as if they were on the 'Internet', but are not actually connected
    6. Statistics on what content the user has watched, can be captured and delivered back to the platform. In the example above, that 'data return path' can be 2G/3G/4G, Wireless, etc...
