A Systematic Approach to Video Quality of Experience
Video QoE Robots are used both for Testing and Monitoring on live and on-demand services.Those reference users are connected and behaving like real users. They evaluate the service actually delivered according to what they see and hear, post-customer device.
They monitor your live and on demand services by interacting just like real users:
- Post-STB: IPTV, HDTV, VoD, EPG, TV widgets
- Post-Home Gateway: OTT, PCTV, PC VoD
- Post-Smartphone and Tablets: Apps with video broadcasting.
A Uniform QoE Baseline for Your Video Services
- Usability at every stage of the development lifecycle
- Easy to understand and use for your technical team, support and operations managers
Help with Comprehensive Tracking and Analysis
While executing each scenario, the robot measures QoE KPIs and KQIs about the overall path, for each stage of the scenario and wth details up to the half-second for audio-video analysis
- The only actual video QoE monitoring products on the market
- Accurate reproduction of user scenarios for all your interactive services
- Check the presence of visible artifacts post-device: blockiness, jerkiness, blur
- Real time and Non Reference AudioMOS and VideoMOS algorithms
- Compliant with ITU-R BT.500 recommendation
- Support of multiple devices simultaneously
- Simultaneous execution of multiple scenarios
- Deployment within both live and development environments
- Centralized Administration and reporting on Witbe Experience Center
- On demand remote control for your NOC teams
- Video wall features for your NOC
- Possible control through third-part systems using web services.
