Re: Proposal of use case for web based signage

Hi Wook,

Thank you for your proposal.
I think that R7 covers your proposal.

R7. Getting a real-time notification from a server
http://www.w3.org/community/websignage/wiki/Web-based_Signage_Use_cases_and_Requirements#R7._Getting_a_real-time_notification_from_a_server

But streaming videos is interesting.
How about focusing it?

Best regards,
Futomi

As she waits for her turn, she goes to the digital signage terminal to get information on the new savings plan, investment tips, exchange rates, and stock quotation to find out if there is any good plan that she could invest. As her turn comes up, she goes to the teller with the next investment plan for the money from her savings account.

HTML5 video tag does not specify any particular real-time streaming protocol, but it allows the use of any protocols such as RTSP(Real-time Streaming Protocol, RFC2326), HLS(HTTP Live Streaming, <https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/StreamingMediaGuide/StreamingMediaGuide.pdf> https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/StreamingMediaGuide/StreamingMediaGuide.pdf), and MPEG-DASH.
