Broadcast data on the watch
Wearables as devices for business applications
The Apple Watch is the perfect device when seconds and minutes matter. During live broadcasts, hosts need to know when they will be on air again at any time. There is a plan for this, but it can change. Therefore, it's good to be informed in real time with a glance at the Apple Watch. And it's good that tactile signals draw attention to the Watch when it's needed.
The challenge
The mobile phone has ensured that workers are no longer tied to their desks. They can access and process business-relevant information on the go. However, it's not always possible to look at the device. When it comes to minutes and seconds, such as for moderators during live broadcasts, the mobile phone reaches its limits. How can we ensure that they don't have to constantly look at their phones? How can changes to the broadcasting schedule be communicated within seconds or minutes when moderators are on-site and not in their studio?
Die Lösung
Mit der Apple Watch steht ein ideales Device zur Verfügung, das in jeder Sendesituation Echtzeitinformationen übermitteln kann. Die App von David Systems bezieht ihre Daten direkt von dem System, in dem die Sendedaten aktualisiert werden. Die Daten werden auf dem Phone und auf dem Screen der Apple Watch visualisiert, so dass ein Blick auf die Uhr genügt um auf dem Laufenden zu sein. Die Moderator*innen sehen, ob gerade Musik läuft, wann der nächste Beitrag beginnt und wann ihr nächster Einsatz. Zeitkritische Änderungen oder Erinnerungen an den Live-Einsatz kurz vor dem Start können mit haptischen Signalen versehen werden. Dafür steht in der App auf dem Phone ein Konfigurator bereit.
The result
Hosts have an additional assurance during their shows that they will not miss their cues. In the studio, they receive information on large screens. When they are on location reporting, both the phone and the watch serve to keep them up to date on the broadcasting schedule at all times. This way, the app on the phone and the Apple Watch ensure that there are no mishaps during live broadcasts.
Be the next success Story.
