The Mobile Unit of RTL interactive has signed a contract to use the interactive Blucom service with SES Astra, thus enabling RTL viewers to benefit from the added value of the new ASTRA service.
Blucom allows broadcasters to actively involve TV viewers in the ongoing programme and provides them with information services as well as interactive services on top of the ongoing TV programme.
The signal will be sent to the satellite TV users and their mobile phones via the digital set-top box and with the support of the Bluetooth technology. The return channel operates via the mobile phone.
In addition, the user needs a browser, which can be ordered with a text message (SMS) and has to be downloaded onto the mobile phone.
