<p>A seamless convergence between the connected TV and
Virtual Reality (VR) ecosystems can open to the door to new
fascinating scenarios. This paper initially introduces three
EU H2020 projects (ImmersiaTV, ImAc and VRTogether)
addressing relevant and complementary aspects towards
achieving this integration. Next, an overview of the
VRTogether project is provided. This project aims at
enabling truly social VR experiences between remote users
in domestic scenarios, based on photorealistic immersive
content and on TV-related scenarios. Although the project is
still in an early stage, its key objectives and requirements
derived via user-centric activities are briefly introduced.
Finally, the envisioned use cases and planned evaluations,
together with the infrastructure and component architecture
being deployed to support these scenarios, are also presented.
