[Via Satellite 09-18-2015] SES Platform Services, a subsidiary of SES, has selected 3 Screen Solutions (3SS), a customized software solutions and services provider for multiscreen digital entertainment, to provide development and integration services for Lucid OVP. Announced at IBC 2015, Lucid OVP is a new turnkey multiscreen video platform from SES Platform Services designed to help broadcasters and content owners launch tailored online and/or Over-the-Top (OTT) services for subscribers more rapidly and cost effectively.

Key 3SS-developed offerings of Lucid OVP, such as a customizable front end, multiscreen user interface, as well as channel-specific iOS and Android apps, will be available in Q4 2015. The components of the end-to-end solution are modularly designed so broadcasters that already have some parts of the ecosystem can select complementary elements in order to assemble a complete platform.
