NCast-telepresentManufacturer:
NCastFeatures
- Capture—several multimedia feeds: graphics, video, and audio
- Compose—these feeds with PiP into a single multimedia stream
- Encode—the stream into an standard MPEG-4 (H.264) file
- Stream on the Internet using realtime streaming protocols
- Archive—the stream for on-demand viewing
- Collaborate—with other Telepresenters or other audience PCs
- PiP (Picture in Picture) or Picture-bypicture format for Flash or H.264 playback
- Embedded Linux kernel for secure, crash-free operation
- Supports up to WUXGA (1920x1200) capture and streaming capabilities
Traditionally, authoring sophisticated media presentations usually required an outside production firm or dedicated staff, which are expensive approaches. Several pieces of costly equipment would be needed to capture the various media sources and combine them in a meaningful way into a multimedia file. Furthermore, encoding these files so they can be streamed on the Internet can be cumbersome and time intensive, and still more hardware is needed for streaming. The Telepresenter M4 fully automates this process by offering a dedicated hardware solution with a powerful set of features.
The Telepresenter M4 supports up to WUXGA (1920x1200) input resolutions and PiP (Picture In Picture) video and graphics overlay. The M4 is a dedicated hardware solution that combines simple operation with a powerful set of features. Enjoy universal interoperability with any RGB/DVI source: laptops, PCs, MACs, document cameras, diagnostic equipment, etc
The M4 is easy to operate, simply plug in RGB (laptop, document camera, etc), DVI, video, and audio sources. Start and stop sessions using the web interface, serial commands or the ubiquitous Google calendar. The input signals will be automatically detected by the system and combined dynamically in a PiP (Picture in Picture) format. At the start of a session, this combined signal will be encoded as an MPEG-4 file, and will then be available for streaming, recording and collaborating.
