Abstract :
ContextController is a content augmentation system that enables the real time collation and presentation of contextual information for linear TV broadcasts. The goal of this project is to enable viewers to supplement their TV viewing experience with externally sourced and summarized knowledge. Through this viewers with varied background knowledge are provided the ability to discover new contextual information, which aids in the improved understanding of the original content. Although this system can be used with a variety of content types this work focuses on News related broadcasts.
