Michael Weitnauer; A.Silzle: Driven by the technological challenges of the media landscape, as well as new user expectations and demands, the so-called ‘object-based’ audio technology has been developed. Object-based media is a revolutionary approach for creating and deploying interactive, personalised, scalable and immersive content. ORPHEUS is a H2020-funded EU project involving ten European major players – broadcasters, manufacturers and research institutions – sharing the common vision to make the best use of this technology for both broadcasters and end users. During a 30-month run-time, the consortium develops, implements and validates an object-based end-to-end media chain for audio content in a real- life broadcast environment. ORPHEUS is driven by two pilots to demonstrate both linear and non-linear audio experiences using an IP-based custom-built broadcast chain.
