ABSTRACT
Watching TV is a practice many people enjoy and feel comfortable with. We propose the capture of the user interaction while interacting with a remote control to watch TV: such detailed information is most valuable to many applications and services. We discuss our proposed approach in the context of the Brazilian Interactive Digital TV platform.
