9. Many TV watchers can easily pause live programming,
record shows or skip through TV advertisements. On
some programs such as a documentary, there might be
layers of information that a viewer might be able to
access with just a click of the remote. Many cable and
satellite companies already include DVR's (digital video
recorders) that can digitally store programming, so that
you can pause your show, watch shows from different
angles or skip through commercials.

interactive TV market is the ability to purchase products
and services via your TV set. Today, you can easily
purchase a pay per view program with the click of the
remote, but very soon, you might be able to watch a TV
commercial and instantly purchase and pay for the product
being advertised with just one click.

11.  The ability to vote or cast your opinion via the TV set.
 Many television programming asks viewers to
participate live with their show. This might be in the
form of voting for a favorite entertainer, voting in a
news poll or giving your opinion on a new show.

15. VOICE BASED GAMES

16. In WiCAST Interactive TV (Voice based games) some
show is going on a television and in between the show some
exciting interactive voice based games are broadcasted.
In this a band consisting of information about how to play a
game is displayed on a television channel.
Example:
 If a viewer is interested he / she will send a message; this
message goes to the operator which is forwarded to the
channels and it gets stored in the database of a channel.
 From this database, a player is selected randomly and his / her
name is displayed on a television.
 The channel will then call to the viewer.
Phone in equipment is used to receive the voice from the
player. It is then given to the audio switcher.

17.  An audio switcher has two outputs, one goes to the studio and one
goes to the moderator / controller.
 Moderator uses the moderator machine to control the operation such
as start, stops, setting the cut off frequency for the game etc.
 The output of the moderator machine goes to the CG Machine. CG
Machine is used for graphic generation which is broadcasted on the
television for playing the games.
 The output of CG Machine is given to the video / audio switcher.
 One of the inputs to the video/ audio switcher is from the CG
Machine and one is from the play out station.
 Play out station includes contents of a television channel.
 Video / Audio switcher is used to combine the audio and video
information from the play out station and CG Machine.
 It is then transmitted to a satellite using a transmitter and from the
satellite it is broadcasted on the television channel.

18. While playing the games there are three types of questions
Entry level question.
 a: visual round
 b: casino round
 c: ABCD round
Any of the rounds can be used as an entry level question , this is
based on studio operators choice
Voice level questions.
It consists of games such as:
a : Tug of war
b : Car race game
c : Ganesha garland game
d: Football game
e : Candle game etc.

19. For all the above game a cut off frequency is set and a player is asked
to blow or say something in a telephone speaker.
If a players frequency matches or goes above the set cut off frequency
then the player wins and vice- versa.
Prize game.
 In prize game 20 boxes are shown, and there are prizes in 3 out of
20 boxes and rest of the boxes contains dolls or some other things.
These boxes are shuffled and a player is asked to select one. Like
this a player is given 3 chances to win a game

20. • Interactive Voice Response - is a technology that automates
interactions with telephone callers.
• Interactive Voice Response (IVR) systems allow callers to
interact with your communications system over the telephone.
• IVR is used to enable the caller to retrieve information from a
database, enter information into a database, or both. IVR
systems allow you to efficiently exchange information,
reducing clerical processing.
• Enterprises are increasingly turning to IVR to reduce the cost
of common sales, service, collections, inquiry and support
calls to and from their company.
• Historically, IVR solutions have used pre-recorded voice
prompts and menus to present information and options to
callers, and touch-tone telephone keypad entry to gather
responses.
• Modern IVR solutions also enable input and responses to be
gathered via spoken words with voice recognition.

21. An IVR system talks to callers following a recorded script. It
prompts a response and waits for the caller to respond either
verbally or by pressing a touchtone key, and supplies the
caller with information based on responses made.
IMPORTANT FEATURES OF IVR SYSTEM
 IVR system should store responses made by callers.
 Should be able to provide different responses to callers based
on time of day called.
 Should be able to capture either touch-tone or voice responses
by callers.

23.  When a customer dials some short code using his mobile
number, the call flows via MSC / Switch and it is routed to
the respective operator servers through PSTN.
 The MSC first checks the mobile number of the incoming call
accordingly routes the call to the respective operators.
 It also checks whether the incoming short code is configured
in the MSC or not; if not then it will send “Connection Error
Message” to the customer.

24.  The operator checks the short codes in the incoming call, and
routes the call to the appropriate servers. There are number of
servers like WiFi Network server, Cerebrum, On Mobile etc,
these servers contains different short codes, depending on the
dialed short code the operator passes the call to the
appropriate server (WiFi server). From the WiFi server the
call goes to the WiFi desktop, from this point the customer
starts communicating with the recorded voice (i.e. IVRS). In
this a customer hears a Welcome Note, Language selection
statement, menu.

25. Example:
• If a customer dials 121(short code), it will go to the MSC.
• MSC will check for two parameters –
Mobile number and
Short code.
• If it is a valid mobile number then MSC will forward the call
to the appropriate operators server( in this case Airtel),the
operator will then check the short code and accordingly it will
forward the call to the respective server in which the short
code is configured (WiFi server).
• It goes to the WiFi desktop and then a customer will hear a
welcome note ( welcome to Airtel customer care) ; Language
selection (press 1 for English, press 2 for Hindi and so on)

26. Menu ( press 1 for balance enquiry, press 2 for refill,
press 3 for value added services press 4 to talk to the
customer care employee and so on); a customer will
dial one digit according to his /her requirement
(suppose a customer presses 4) in this case WiFi
Networks server will route the call to the Airtel BPO
and the further operation will be carried out by them.
The above process is known as In- bound Call where
the customer calls the operator using a short code.

27. Out bound Call:
In this a mobile operator calls the customer and a customer
hears the recorded voice to offer some services which are
basically value added services(ring tones, astrology etc) a
customer will be charged for these services if he / she
activates these services.
