The duo(tm) product developed by SBS Interactive, is an immersive and interactive set-top system that plugs into standard television sets to enable the creation of revolutionary forms of training, instruction and entertainment content. The duo(tm) system uses the same blue screen technology used by the movie production industry to both put the viewer in the picture, as well as bring the program into the viewer's room or office, where the viewer then becomes a player in the video production. Thus, users see themselves inserted into the video production, where they become part of the program in a fully dynamic, intelligent and interactive manner.
