Title
Mobile multimedia presentation in self-forming mobile device groups: ad-hoc networks in practice
Abstract
This demo exhibits a new application of mobile ad-hoc networks, where, a group of mobile devices are connected to allow synchronized presentation of multimedia content. The demo is in the form of an interactive tour. Participants have a mobile device and the tour is led by a guide, who takes the group on an informative tour of a locale. The tour is augmented with the presentation of multimedia content on the devices, highlighting points of interest. Content presentation is controlled by the guide and is synchronized using the ad-hoc network. This is an edutainment application but the underlying technology could be applied elsewhere including educational settings and in entertainment.
