Audiovisual App Opening use case

Global use case developed by Aura Platform Team that allows users accessing third-party apps

Introduction

The Audiovisual App Opening use case is a global experience designed and developed by Aura Global Team that allows Telefónica customers to open different third-party apps that are considered audiovisual apps.

  • A user interacts with Aura through a normalized video channel
  • The user requests: “I want to put this <app> on the TV”, where <app> is a third-party app
  • Aura recognizes the request and provides back to the channel the information required to open this app

For example:

  • “Open Amazon Prime Video app”
  • “Access TikTok”
  • “Put Disney on TV”

Use case logic

Once Aura has recognized the user’s utterance based on NLP components, the use case should be resolved based on:
