Software and cloud services provider castLabs will be demonstrating its player technology in Hall 5 with a particular focus on cross-platform players.
For example, it has collaborated with set-top box software provider 3 Screen Solutions (3SS) on the creation of a player based on open-source UI framework React Native for the Proximus Pickx entertainment platform in Belgium.
According to castLabs, the combination of its player technology with the 3SS 3Ready platform has helped to enhance the Pickx offer with playback and interactivity across Android and Apple platforms as well as on the web. The company says its PRESTOplay technology enables high-quality video playback across platforms, providing Pickx with a stable and reliable viewing experience.
Michael Stattmann, Co-founder of castLabs, said: “Our collaboration brings powerful new tools to service providers, and we look forward to continuing to help Proximus increase user engagement and satisfaction among Pickx subscribers.”
