Abstract
Interactive TV is expected to revolutionize the TV market, providing a host of new services to the consumer homes. While being theoretically a promising technology, the design and implementation of interactive TV platforms are bringing new challenges to the IT society, due to the fundamental differences between TV sets and PCs environments. The SEITV project is presented in this paper, where a set of design considerations for interactive digital TV have been analyzed and applied to the creation of interactive services for entertainment and education.
