  1. Transforming Homes:Next step towards a heterogeneous user centric scenario, new opportunities and challenges Josu Bilbao IKERLAN Technological Research Center London, September 23rd

  2. Outline INTRODUCTION ENVIRONMENT QUESTIONS KEY FACTORS SCENARIOS Introduction Environment Key Factors Scenarios Conclusions

  3. Nowadays: Important role of multimedia. Home entertainment is one of the biggest market. 1st framework for the Ambient Intelligence (AmI) era services bloom. Introduction Most of Multimedia Services @ Home Consumed Introduction Environment Key Factors Scenarios Conclusions

  4. Environment …Trajectory… Broadcasted audiovisual contents Innovative AmI Services Interactive Services (MHP) Streamed (IP) services Stored contents (DVD, BluRay, etc.) Digital era Kick-off. (90’s) Static Business Model (2008) STB controlled by content & service providers Evolution needed Transforming Services… Introduction Environment Key Factors Scenarios Conclusions

  5. Environment • Specific equipment to access each service • Controlled by service providers, NOT by the users. • NOT Flexible!! • Service consumption only where receivers are placed. Introduction Environment Key Factors Scenarios Conclusions

  6. Progressive and scalable home infrastructure that will Allow users to: Incorporate new bouquet of services WITHOUT huge investment (end user) Infrastructure available for incoming services User must assume the infrastructure’s cost!! Technology adoption slow-down. Key Factors Introduction Environment Key Factors Scenarios Conclusions

  7. Key Factors Important milestone: Consume services wherever the user is placed in the extended-home Home Interface Interactivity & Control Remote Control TV1 TV2 • Descentralized services. • Condominium services bloom • More Flexibility • New locations – New Applications • Important DRM related aspects DVB MPEG IP PC Others Bidirectional Lift Home Interface TV1 Bidirectional Storage Descentralized consumption (different location). Introduction Environment Key Factors Scenarios Conclusions

  8. Key Factors Intelligent Multimedia Home IMOH Project Next step towards a heterogeneous scenario User Centric environment 2 Key Scenarios New opportunities and Challenges Follow-me High scientific-technological capacity e-Health Covered by the support of industrial partners Outcome: Transformation Home networking expertise Aligned with European challenges: NEM, emobility Introduction Environment Key Factors Scenarios Conclusions

  9. Key Factors Protocol Convergence: • IP Networks • IEEE-1394 • Industrial Ethernet • … Physical media convergence: • UTP Cable • Fiber Optics • Coax • PLC (Powerline) • UWB (Ultra Wide Band) • WiFi • … No-new-Wires + ICT Warning: Lost Opportunity!! Standalone devices. No inter-device connectivity Introduction Environment Key Factors Scenarios Conclusions

  10. Domotic Services Data Network Key Factors Complementary Wireless Network Multimedia Network Home Backbone: heterogeneous & no-new-wires Access Network Access Control Introduction Environment Key Factors Scenarios Conclusions

  11. Key Factors Home Architecture: • Bridging Techonologies • QoS • No-New-Wires Upper OSI layers: • Services discovery • DRM • Ubiquitous • User-Centric Introduction Environment Key Factors Scenarios Conclusions

  12. Scenario (a): Follow-me • Convergence of Location Mechanisms • Convergence of Protocols • Convergence of Physical media • Ubiquitous • User friendly • User Centric services (Follow-me TV). Introduction Environment Key Factors Scenarios Conclusions

  13. Scenario (b): e-Health Introduction Environment Key Factors Scenarios Conclusions

  14. Conclusions • QoS over Heterogeneous & User Centric Extended-Home Network. • Robust + DRM • High Capillarity (Wired & Wireless) • Easy technological adoptión without user’s huge investment. • Importance of localization methods. • User centric • New opportunities and Challenges • e-Society based on disposed network infrastructure: • e-Health • e-Administration • e-gobernment • e-Learning • Reduce the social “Digital Gap” • Sustainable development of the XXI century’s society.
