UTStarcom invests in aioTV
November 15, 2012
UTStarcom, a provider of broadband equipment and solutions, has acquired a significant minority stake in aioTV, a cloud-based video aggregation and distribution platform. The deal gives UTStarcom access to technology that will bolster its rollout of subscription-based value added media services, while giving aioTV a partner with whom to offer its technology in emerging markets in Asia.
US-based aioTV has developed a middleware platform that combines conditional access and content management tools for network operators to aggregate multiple sources of content into a consistent TV-like experience across connected devices. The technology locates and aggregates Internet and licensed video content metadata and ultimately delivers a common experience and content to viewers on a range of connected devices – any device that supports an HTML5 environment. aioTV currently works with many consumer electronics makers, cable and telecommunications service providers and broadcast partners in North America, South America, Europe and the Middle East to provide their middleware platform to millions of customers.
