MARCONI at Salon de la Radio 2020

MARCONI at Salon de la Radio 2020

For the second year in a row MARCONI was present at Salon de la Radio in Paris (22-24 January). Also known as the European Radio Show for non-French speakers, the event has become a major happening dedicating itself entirely to the radio industry and aiming for both technicians and decision-makers.

Sharing a beautifully designed booth with HRADIO, MARCONI’s main mission was promoting an integrated platform for enhanced interaction between radio makers and listeners.

Bringing interactive radio to ACM TVX

Bringing interactive radio to ACM TVX

On the 5th of June, the first workshop on Interactive Radio Experiences (IRE) took place at ACM TVX, the International Conference on Interactive Experiences for Television and Online Video, at MediaCityUK in Salford, UK. Despite the increasingly interactive nature of radio experiences, the topic has been neglected so far at TVX and other conferences that address interactive media. The workshop, jointly organised by the H2020-projects MARCONI and HRadio, brought together researchers and practitioners working on tools, services and applications that enable interactive radio experiences.

MARCONI was at the WorldDAB General Assembly 2018

The WorldDAB General Assembly 2018 brought together more than 200 experts to discuss the future of DAB+ digital radio. The MARCONI project was represented there thanks to Pluxbox who had a booth at this event. It was an opportunity to show MARCONI demos and give hand outs to members of WorldDAB and DAB enthusiasts.

This was MARCONI at ACM Multimedia 2018

ACM Multimedia is the most important conference for researchers and practitioners in the multimedia field. This year, the 26th edition of the conference took place in Seoul, Korea, from the 22nd of October till the 26th. MARCONI contributed to this year’s programme with a tutorial titled “Interactive Video Search: Where is the User in the Age of Deep Learning?”, co-authored by Werner Bailer from Joanneum Research.

MARCONI at TVX 2018

From the 26th till the 28th of June, the TVX conference for broadcasters took place in Seoul, Korea. ACM TVX (Interactive Experiences for Television and Online Video) is the leading international conference for research into online video, TV interaction and user experience. Researchers Sandy and Rik from VRT were able to present their submitted papers about MARCONI at the conference, and receive valuable feedback for the next steps of the project.

“Our role in the project is to support the indexing and search of social content, helping radio stations to get more out of their interactions on social media, better understand the issues that are discussed on their shows and respond faster to online comments.” Meet George Ioannidis, Director at IN2.

“I started my career by developing a single-source publishing system together with Dennis Laupman, which is how the company Pluxbox was born.” Meet Cas Adriani, Technical Director at Pluxbox and technical lead of the MARCONI integrated platform.
