24、Y.4412/F.747.8 (11/2015) Introduction Recently, demands for personalized media and interactivity in the media service are increasing and media service platforms are needed to support the fast development and deployment of new multimedia services/applications by reconfiguration of the existing servic
25、e components. Due to the expansion of the Internet of things (IoT), objects related to media services can be identified and recognized by people or other objects. Also, the IoT enables person-to-object and object-to-object communications as well as person-to-person communication. Audience-selectable
26、 media (ASM) service enables viewers to be interactive and select preferred media in the running time by providing media selection options. Rec. ITU-T Y.4412/F.747.8 (11/2015) 1 Recommendation ITU-T Y.4412/F.747.8 Requirements and reference architecture for audience-selectable media service framewor
27、k in the IoT environment 1 Scope This Recommendation defines requirements and reference architecture for audience-selectable media (ASM) service in the Internet of things (IoT). The scope of this Recommendation includes: concept of ASM service framework; requirements of ASM service framework; refere
28、nce architecture of ASM service framework; and functional entities of ASM service framework. 2 References None. 3 Definitions 3.1 Terms defined elsewhere This Recommendation uses the following terms defined elsewhere: 3.1.1 device b-ITU-T Y.4400: An apparatus through which a user can perceive and in
29、teract with the web. 3.1.2 Internet of things b-ITU-T Y.4000: A global infrastructure for the information society, enabling advanced services by interconnecting (physical and virtual) things based on existing and evolving interoperable information and communication technologies. NOTE 1 Through the e
30、xploitation of identification, data capture, processing and communication capabilities, the IoT makes full use of things to offer services to all kinds of applications, whilst ensuring that security and privacy requirements are fulfilled. NOTE 2 From a broader perspective, the IoT can be perceived a
31、s a vision with technological and societal implications. 3.1.3 object b-ITU-T Y.2002: An intrinsic representation of an entity that is described at an appropriate level of abstraction in terms of its attributes and functions. 3.1.4 resources b-ITU-T Y.4400: The term “resource“ is whatever might be i
32、dentified by a URI. NOTE Familiar examples include an electronic document, an image, a source of information with a consistent purpose (e.g., “todays weather report for Los Angeles“), a service (e.g., an HTTP-to-SMS gateway), and a collection of other resources. A resource is not necessarily accessi
33、ble via the Internet; e.g., human beings, corporations, and bound books in a library can also be resources. Likewise, abstract concepts can be resources, such as the operators and operands of a mathematical equation, the types of a relationship (e.g., “parent“ or “employee“), or numeric values (e.g.
34、, zero, one, and infinity). 3.1.5 thing b-ITU-T Y.4000: With regard to the Internet of things, this is an object of the physical world (physical things) or the information world (virtual things), which is capable of being identified and integrated into communication networks. 2 Rec. ITU-T Y.4412/F.7
35、47.8 (11/2015) 3.2 Terms defined in this Recommendation This Recommendation defines the following terms: 3.2.1 camera control server: A server that selects and updates camera objects, camera object groups, and the main camera object. It also controls camera objects. 3.2.2 camera object: A device tha
36、t captures and tracks objects of interest. It can also transmit and receive the tracked position of each object of interest to both other camera devices and a camera control server through the Internet. Its pan-tilt-zoom may be controlled by the camera control server for tracking objects of interest
37、. 3.2.3 camera object group: A group of camera objects that capture the same object of interest whose occupied region size in the frame is greater than the pre-defined value. 3.2.4 main camera object: A camera object that captures a main broadcasting video. The initial main camera object is selected
38、 by audiences or the broadcaster. The main camera object can be changed to the sub-camera object during the service. 3.2.5 object of interest: A moving person or a moving thing in the video of which the service audience may have interest. 3.2.6 sub-camera object: A camera object that is not selected
39、 as a main camera object. An initial sub-camera object is usually selected by the broadcaster. The sub-camera object can be changed to the main camera object by audiences during the service. 4 Abbreviations and acronyms This Recommendation uses the following abbreviations and acronyms: ASM Audience-

41、urces and services/applications of the web. As new multimedia services/applications are emerging, media service platforms need to support fast development and deployment of new multimedia services/applications by reconfiguration of the existing service components. Also, media service devices, such a
42、s cameras, are beginning to provide wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) technology. IoT-applied media service enables objects in media service to be identified and recognized by people or other objects; IoT also enables person-to-object and object-to-object communications as well as person-to-person. This rea
43、lizes the smart media service where objects can be automatically reconfigured to create and deliver media content according to the audiences demands and preferences. Rec. ITU-T Y.4412/F.747.8 (11/2015) 3 In the current broadcasting service, a suitable camera object is selected among available camera
44、 objects, video from the selected camera object is encoded, and the encoded video is broadcasted to viewers. Attributes of the content and service region are considered for broadcasting. This traditional broadcasting service does not provide any options to audiences to select various views from diff
45、erent camera objects in the same scene. The lack of this option causes audiences to remain passive. The ASM service enables audiences to be interactive and select preferred media in the running time by providing media selection options. Examples of media selection options include the selection of an
46、 object of interest and a selection of an interested camera object among multi-camera objects providing different views. Figure 1 illustrates the concept of the ASM service. As described in Figure 1, there are three components in the ASM service: Broadcaster, audience, and camera management server.
47、These components generate and update object of interest, camera group for each object of interest, and a camera view-video that the audience is interested in, including the following: (1) broadcaster: The broadcaster shows object of interest candidates to the audience. (2) audience: The audience sel
48、ects one object from the object of interest candidates, selects one of the camera objects in the camera group for the selected object of interest, and watches the selected camera view-video. (3) camera management server: The camera management server updates the cameras in each camera group for each
49、object of interest, gets the selection option inputs from the audience, and broadcasts the selected camera-view video to the audience. Figure 1 Concept of ASM service The concept of the ASM service described in Figure 1 can be explained as follows: broadcasters first specify the object of interest candidates in the scene (e.g., player 1 and player 2) and then show them to the audience for selection; 4 Rec. ITU-T Y.4412/F.747.8 (11/2015) the camera management server constitutes an initial correspondin
