ACOGITO Announces New Concept of Integrated PVR Service Including a TV Streaming Service to Mobile Devices

Acogito, a personal media entertainment carrier company,
today announced the world's first integrated PVR service called
"AcoService(TM)," utilizing the Company's patented Remote Control
eXtensible Markup Language (RCXML). Combined with the Company's dual
tuner SD/HD PVR product ("AcoBox(TM)"), the AcoService(TM) allows
consumers to enjoy (i) an IP-based, contents streaming service to
mobile phone or PC ("AcoTV(TM)"), (ii) a CRM-based, recording agent
service ("AcoChannel(TM)"), and (iii) a patented RCXML-based, remote
scheduling service ("AcoRemote(TM)").
"Now through our AcoService(TM), any time can be your prime time,
and any place can be your living room," said Jason Chung, Ph.D.,
Acogito's President & CEO. "I believe that consumers, as the world
moves rapidly into the ubiquitous era, will require an integrated
service connecting between CE devices at home and mobile devices
anywhere through the internet. And among the CE devices, the PVR is
the best killer application for such an integrated service."
AcoTV(TM) utilizes a MPEG4 encoder hardware module incorporated
into a PVR to stream live or pre-recorded TV contents to any mobile
phone or PC. On the other hand, a RCXML-based software module,
enabling AcoChannel(TM), AcoRemote(TM) and other basic services such
as EPG, HDD management, etc., can be directly implemented into a PVR
set without any additional hardware cost. The AcoService(TM) is
offered with a purchase of any AcoBox(TM) PVR free of monthly charge
for a limited time, which can be renewable every six months.
One of the most innovative features provided by AcoService(TM) is
the AcoChannel(TM), in which our CRM automatically schedules remote
recording of your favorites into your PVR as you continue to use
scheduled recording. Whenever you feel tired of searching programs of
your interests, you just click the ACO BUTTON on your remote
controller to access AcoChannel(TM), which most likely contains your
favorite programs. AcoChannel(TM) service will be available in the
EMEA region from January, 2007.
The Company has also completed the development of the universal
device module (called "AcoModule(TM)"), which converts any PVR/STB
with different platforms, operating systems and reception methods to
an AcoService(TM)-enabled AcoBox(TM) in order to globally extend the
AcoService(TM). The Company will showcase the AcoBox(TM) and its
associated AcoService(TM) during 2006 IBC Show held in Amsterdam,
Netherlands. The booth is located at 5.210.
