The Wii and Future IPTV Service

Looking Local is platform neutral, keen to work with any mainstream consumer electronic device to provide useful public sector services and extend our reach.

We have specifically developed an interface for the Nintendo Wii which you can view below, due the popularity of this device and its appropriateness for certain audience. We keep a close eye on emerging technologies and services and would be happy to discuss adaptation for new devices. We already have clients interested in IPTV and are actively considering this.

The video below shows the easy steps users follow when accessing the Looking Local service via the Wii.

Advanced media capabilities

In addition to the core interactive services available on mainstream interactive TV and mobile channels, the Looking Local service on Wii offers advanced media playback capabilities, including pre-recorded video & audio on demand and live video feeds.

Kiosks

As the Looking Local interface is designed for TV, it translates well on to kiosks due to the similar screen size, resolution and type of content. We have worked with a number of kiosk providers over the years and it is possible to integrate the Looking Local technology and provide your microsite on to a kiosk and provide a wealth of interactive services. Please contact us to find out more.
