Abstract

This paper describes an innovative prototype system created to build up multimedia services addressed to mobile users, starting from automatically retrieved and processed archive contents or from User Generated Contents. The system targets both broadcasting Mobile TV on DVB-H and interactive mobile web over WiFi or 3G networks, both usable from handheld devices. Two pilot services based on the prototype system, available for experimental purposes over the area of Torino, are also described. The first pilot service is based on the automatic creation of a thematic news channel fed with contents from the Regional News, the second one allows to seamlessly distribute User Generated Contents.
