BRIDGET: An approach at sustainable and efficient production of second screen media applications

This paper provides insights of an advanced architecture for authoring and consumption of second screen content aiming to develop innovative functionalities for enjoying multimedia content by connecting it to other related content, augmenting it with virtual information of interest, and allowing navigation of the 3D reconstruction of the scene. Innovative technology and the underlying architecture for efficient production of second screen applications is described, which includes novel front-end authoring tools as well as back-end enabling technologies such as visual search, media structure analysis and 3D A/V reconstruction to support new editorial workflows. A strong commitment on standardisation by the project's partners ensures the future-proof utility of the results.
