Abstract

The invention concerns a system for developing interactive applications transmitted through a network. The system comprises, activated by the operation of a computer, an electronic editor (E) for simulating a display screen of a display monitor, and an interface controlling (MCS) a control module associated with said display monitor. A module generating virtual objects (GOV) specific to the application to be developed is provided, the virtual objects being selected at least among images in point mode, video files, textual files, capable of being edited, displayed, represented by the editor (E) for forming a scene of the pplication. A control module (COR) for correlating event/action pairs is provided, an event corresponding to the imbalance of the state of an operation system and an action corresponding to an initialization or a modification of the display or the representation of one or several scenes constituting the applications. The invention is useful for developing interactive applications, in particular on TV channel, Internet network or the like.
