IPTV applications developer Emuse is to move its latest applications for the BT Vision platform to the new Microsoft Presentation Framework. It follows an extension of the relationship between Emuse and BT that will include enhancements to the OnVision magazine, a new BT Vision Sports service, a 24/7 AdZone showcasing innovative advertising and sponsorship, a lifestyle magazine service and a games and gaming portal.
The applications will initially be built in the Tasman browser before moving to the recently announced Microsoft Presentation Framework where Emuse has been a beta partner.
Emuse only began the use of Tasman in December for the launch of OnVision.
