New Possibilities for Collaborative Communications
As intelligent broadband networks have become more pervasive, at home, in business and particularly in education, it has enticed us toward higher capacity multimedia activity. Consequently, video media has become readily available to the ordinary user. With enhanced features and delivery techniques, video now offers a wider range of communications options for real time, recorded and on-demand information exchange.
Video Conferencing in Organisations
Video conferencing applications can help organisations realise benefits by deploying complementary technologies to improve knowledge transfer, make faster decisions, improve productivity, increase staff effectiveness, reduce travel, save money and indirectly, become more environment friendly. Some organisations already use video conferencing for regular briefings, all-hands meetings, training, and fulfilling compliance requirements.
Video Conferencing in Education
The advantage of video conferencing in the classroom is being widely recognised as a means of encouraging a greater exchange of culture, language, and curriculum. Recent efforts to make video conferencing easier have made these exchanges more widely available.
In an education environment, video conferencing encourages collaboration and can provide access to expertise, for instance, in language learning and professional development, sharing best practice, and bringing disparate students face-to-face. It can also enhance curriculum choice by providing access to master classes, conducting “incursions” or virtual field trips to museums, other schools or government organisations that offer shared learning environments.
Real-time Communication with Video Conferencing
Synetrix offer a proven range of interoperable/compatible video, audio, web and data conferencing solutions supporting one-to-one, one-to-many and many-to-many conferencing. Supported by a multitude of devices and networks, users can communicate in real-time from any location using any device.
For illustration, a single meeting could be joined by a) a group of people in a meeting room using a hi-definition video conferencing system, b) a home user by landline telephone, c) a home user on a broadband connected PC, d) a user on a video phone in a remote office, and e) a user at a train station on a 3G mobile videophone. All users would hear everything, users with video capable devices could see and be seen, and users with data support could share content.
Anytime Communication, Communicating without Convening, and On-demand Streaming
Synetrix provide easy-to-use video and data content creation and distribution solutions that allow on-demand access to rich media content - audio, video and data. These solutions can be integrated with real-time solutions (such as video conferencing) to record or broadcast meetings; or deployed independently to provide an easy way to create a dynamic library of high quality presentations with synchronised audio, video and content for education, training or corporate communications.
Powerful features include one button recording and simple republishing for distribution via an intranet or the Internet. Content is searchable and accessible from standard web browsers. These solutions can also provide web casting capabilities for near real-time and scheduled broadcasts of information such as a Chairman's message.
Anytime communications allows people to share know-how, reach a wider audience, attain consistency, and eliminates the need for experts to repeat presentations.
Creating your own Television Network with IPTV
Imagine watching a television broadcast through your web browser. IPTV erases the need for separate analogue coaxial cabling to each display device, and enables broadcast video distribution throughout a LAN or WAN onto TV screens, plasma screens, LCD displays and PCs. Live TV channels such as Freeview, can be broadcast across the network in native quality or recorded for later playback on-demand. Recordings can also be scheduled for rebroadcast at a future time or at regular intervals. Additional content development solutions can be customised for a professional look and feel by providing a mixed format of video, graphics and rolling text to deliver different messages to different locations.
With many years experience delivering real-time and on-demand collaborative communication solutions over some of the largest broadband networks in the UK, Synetrix have honed the advanced skill sets required to ensure robust, reliable, and scalable video solutions. A strong consultancy focus ensures that solutions are suited to customers’ needs, whilst our managed services provide ongoing reassurance of reliability.
Where possible solutions deployed conform to industry standards to provide interoperability with existing solutions as well as provide a level of future proofing and solution longevity as new technologies emerge.
