2. I+D
IPTV session transference across Set Top Boxes
The IPTV Service Continuity provides seamless continuity of
viewing between different available end-devices including Set-
Top Boxes, laptops, hand-held terminals and so on.
3. 1 DMS (VLC, IPTV Server FT)
Digital Media Server (DMS), in charge of video processing and video sending to some
DMR device.
2 DMR (EyeConnect, XBMC, UPNP compatible)
Digital Media Renderer (DMR), responsible for video rendering.

4. Paradigma implemented its algorithm of proximity based in the signal intensity of
multiple WiFi LANs. The algorithm is based on topological triangulation.
IPTV connection to
FranceTelecom's
streaming RSTP
protocol via
terrestrial multicast
or VOD
Persistent geo-location
5. Proof of concept to transfer a video session from a device to a mobile one
E.g. user case of a viewer looking at the main TV screen in the house
