EUREKA ITEA 2 CAM4Home project ends in MediaTeam

Collaborative Aggregated Multimedia for Digital Home project ends in MediaTeam by the end of June. The large pan-European project researched and developed technology that improves further development and provisioning of new digital media services and products to the consumers. A service platform was developed that enables the development of new domain and end-user services using CAM metadata, which can flexibly combine multimedia content and services in a single framework.  

In the project MediaTeam designed and developed a content annotation service that creates semantic CAM-objects for multimedia files utilizing computational content analysis methods. MediaTeam also developed a web-based end user service that allows users to upload multimedia files and produce semantic CAM objects to the platform services and devices. MediaTeam was also involved with the design and development of CAM metamodel and metadata framework services collaborating with international and domestic partners through joint scenarios. MediaTeam produced 15 publications, two book chapters and organized three international scientific workshops during the project.

The project's main coordinator was Thomson R&D France/Technicolor. The technical coordination was led by VTT, which has published the CAM4Home service platform as a public and open Internet platform for the research and non-commercial development of novel personalized and interconnected multimedia applications.
