English abstract:
When the Internet became more interactive it turned passive consumers of information into active providers of such. Over the time, volunteers built impressive databases filled with information for virtually every niche. In this paper we present RITE, an idea for augmenting films and TV serials with supplementary information that is freely available on the Internet. An easy, yet powerful interface and interaction design should encourages laid-back TV consumers to contribute. Thus, the system shall be optimized for different input devices such as tablets, smartphones or TV remotes. Besides, various automatism are intended to simplify the process of contribution even more.
