Screen Viewing Experience Today
A Disconnect Between Screen to Personal Device
There is no doubt that today’s society and its habits are constantly changing. One of the most significant changes currently occurring is the growing population of omni-screen users. People have smartphones, tablets and computers infused into their daily life where they use these devices naturally every day.
Today’s society prefers to use digital technology to shop online, play games and seek information anytime anywhere. Research shows that: 1
● Around 50% of people between 18-54 years use smartphone while watching video content
● 61% request additional information while watching video content
● Almost 50% of people search for products while watching video content
● 27% purchase products while watching video content
● 23% of all Internet searches via smartphones has something to do with what is being watched
● 28% of people search for the product that is being advertised
Bridging the gap between the screen viewing experience and the users’ personal device or computer is currently a manual process. Users must manually search on the device to engage further on the Video Content they are viewing.
With Beyond Seen Screen, companies will have an option to fulfill the needs of a growing society of omni-screen users, their buying habits and hunger for information.

Beyond Seen Screen Bridging the Gap Between First and Second Screen
Imagine that you are watching a film on any screen based on a true story and that you are interested in details about those true events.

User scenarios
Movies
Joanna and her husband sit down one evening to watch a new spy thriller movie. While watching, Joanna notices how attractive the leading actor looks in his dress suit. She tells her partner how that same suit would look good on him too. In order to impress his wife, he takes out his smartphone, starts the Beyond Seen Screen app and scans the movie to learn more. Information is presented by the Beyond Seen Screen platform, as well as including a link to the exact suite the actor wears in the movie. Joanna’s partner decides to order the suit and have it express delivered to his home, just in time for for their anniversary dinner.
The Production and Marketing Teams want to step up the product placement return on investment in their movies and offers their clients extra promotion of their products placed in the movies.

Music
Tyrone and Aaliyah are enjoying a relaxing evening, watching television on the couch. An Artist’s music video, that they both love, plays on the TV and their memories are drawn to their wedding day. They both instantly have the desire to see the Artist in concert again. Tyrone starts the Beyond Seen Screen app on his smartphone and uses it to scan the music video on the TV. He is instantly provided information showing details of current concert tour, and sweepstakes for 2 tickets to the next local concert. This was an easy opportunity they could not pass up, where Tyrone and Aaliyah quickly buy tickets to the concert.
The Artists marketing team wanted to increase deep engagement with their fans. The Beyond Seen Screen App enables promotion of the new tour with information such as live concert schedules, special interviews, backstage action videos, concert behind the scenes videos and free ticket sweepstakes.

Blockchain
The service that Beyond Seen Screen platform provides is the ability for clients to provide interactive information related to the content the viewers are watching. In order for clients to be interested in using this service, the platform must have a solid user base. Driving viewers to use the platform is a marketing and PR challenge, but Beyond Seen Screen’s vision is to change the way the data about the platform use is presented to the public. Beyond Seen Screen will to make the data about the platform global use open to the public and be transparent about it, while at the same time, preserving the privacy of the individual Beyond Seen Screen users. Beyond Seen Screen wants to leverage the strengths of blockchain technology as a public record of the reach of the Beyond Seen Screen Platform.
Beyond Seen Screen will open up the data about its platform usage by saving this data into the blockchain. Having this data publicly available in the blockchain will allow independent verification of the impressions provided by the platform. It will also allow a permanent look into the history of platform use and how different changes to the platform’s features, reliability, scalability, performance optimizations and business models changed the popularity of the platform and its use. Fraud is a big problem in Programmatic Advertising. The concerns around programmatic buying are largely focused on fraud and viewability – that is, is the impression being served to an actual human? And if so, do they actually have the potential to see the ad? 2
Since the full history of data changes will be stored in the public blockchain, platform usage data can be trusted that it has not been manipulated. Providing this data in the blockchain will instill additional trust in the integrity of Beyond Seen Screen’s business. It will also make it unnecessary for advertisers to incur the additional cost of verification auditing of the impressions delivered by the platform. This is a tremendous cost savings to the Advertiser.
Beyond Seen Screen will take care to protect the privacy of its users, so no personally identifiable information will ever be saved into the blockchain. The data saved to the blockchain and the process by which it is processed will be fully EU GDPR compliant.
To power the rewarding system, information about a user’s interaction will be saved to the blockchain. In order to reward the clients whose videos have the highest number of interactions from users, the platform needs to transparently record that those interactions occurred. By having this data saved to the public blockchain, the trust is no longer an issue and a base for a fair rewarding system is created.
