The company will showcase its latest innovations enabling operators to re-aggregate the entire digital home with a future-proof single software platform with a common user experience on all screens in the home and on the go.

SoftAtHome is creating a converging service vision with ImpressioNG, where the TV accesses and controls operator services at home, aggregating video content, connectivity, and IoT, embracing the new matter standard.

SoftAtHome aims to help operators improve the quality of user experience at home or on the go. Based on multi-source content discovery, ImpressioNG integrates an application store to go beyond video services by enriching them with connectivity and IoT. User interaction is streamlined, targeting a one-click stop to discover and consume video more easily. Use cases are infinite: controlling the light ambiance of the home, displaying feeds from the video doorbell on the main TV screen, or watching the baby sleep in PiP while watching a movie. The French software vendor also delivers this multi-service experience on connected TVs, PCs, and mobile devices, at home or on the go, where you can control the door lock or set the temperature before going home. An intuitive user experience is available via a remote control, a keyboard, a touch screen, or voice with Amazon Alexa. Digital services include Live TV, VoD, gaming, Wi-Fi credentials on TV, Video calls, and IoT control. It is based on transversal data analytics and provides security.

SoftAtHome, expert integrator of Amazon Alexa as a Voice Control to Home Gateways and Repeaters

SoftAtHome integrates voice control into RDK, Android, or Linux devices in the home using far-field and push-to-talk. The company joined Amazon’s Alexa Solution Provider network in 2021 and integrates voice control on devices such as smart speakers, traditional set-top boxes, Home Gateways, or repeaters. At IBC, SoftAtHome will demonstrate video and IoT use cases, voice commands for device pairing over Wi-Fi, parental control settings for Internet access, Wi-Fi access for visitors, or network speed tests, all controlled by voice.

ConnectedHome, a user-friendly mobile application delivering the best digital home user experience that will benefit from the new Matter standard

Also starring on stand 1F30 at IBC 2022, ConnectedHome is SoftAtHome’s user-friendly application, available on mobile devices and TV screens and enabling end-users to set up and manage digital services at home. Compatible with the future matter standard that will allow accessories to work together across various platforms, it includes a simplified setup of a home gateway, repeaters, IoT devices, or TV screens, all associated with a single account. The app provides tools such as home surveillance based on a Do-It-Yourself approach, a green tab to follow energy consumption with recommendations to help end-users to become eco-friendly, as well as lights, shutters, and home climate controls.

End-user security

End-user security is also part of SoftAtHome’s features showcased at IBC. By supporting video calls and security camera feeds within a service portal, it is possible to see who is at the front door, watch a baby sleep, deliver video calls or activate the parental control on the LAN. All these features can be controlled on the go. SoftAtHome says that the main TV screen becomes a dashboard for the complete digital experience at home.
