TDTcom, Connected Television

La propuesta tecnológica TDTcom ha sido desarrollada por Abertis Telecom siguiendo el estándar europeo HbbTV (Hybrid Broadcast Broadband Television). Este estándar fue lanzado en 2009 por el consorcio HbbTV (Hybrid Broadcast-Broadband TV), del que forma parte Abertis Telecom, y está dirigido al desarrollo de un entorno en el que convivan los contenidos audiovisuales propios de la TDT (Televisión Digital Terrestre), y los contenidos Web, favoreciendo la interacción del espectador y el acceso a contenidos bajo demanda mediante su distribución en Internet.

TDTCOM permite la recepción doméstica en un televisor conectado, o mediante decodificador, de los contenidos creados por los radiodifusores para el entorno Internet, con otras funcionalidades añadidas como recepción bajo demanda, elección de horarios y programación o televisión a la carta, sin perturbar la recepción de la programación TDT habitual.
