10. Future Media Internet
 Create value by linking people to each other and to
locations in ways that capture popular imagination
 We have defined three technical scenarios associated
with Live Events
 Live and augmented
 investigating production, management and delivery of user-
generated content with augmented reality for participative
community experiences at large scale public events.
 Live and online
 exploring the relationship between real-world and online
communities, and how such online communities can be used to
adapt and provide efficient management of media content and
improved personalised social experiences.
 Live and 3D
 nvestigating the production, management and delivery of high
quality media content (largescale in terms of size of content), 3D
Internet technologies and metadata management for
professional collaborative working and experiences

13. Objectives of the Call
 Experiments that want to trial FMI technologies
 organisations results from R&D projects
 SMEs with beta technology
 academics with innovative technology in computer science
 Each experiment:
 must target a single venue and demonstrate impact to stakeholders (e.g. quality of life
 through communication, visitor experience, sports performance, learning/education, etc);
 must include users and motivations/incentives for their participation;
 must consider the relationship between real-world and online interaction where real-world
 actions have real-world impact through the FMI;
 must explore the relationship between QoS and QoE;
 must use two or more EXPERIMEDIA baseline components together as enablers of the FMI;
 must contribute to the future vision of the FMI;
 must drive the evolution of the EXPERIMEDIA facility.
 Innovative usage scenarios exploiting the multiple dimensions and scale of the EXPERIMEDIA
facility, including system level experiments
 A clear positive impact for users and other stakeholders within the venue ecosystems.
