Video and audio transmission sent by satellite. With one-way video and two-way audio, learners see and hear the instructors; instructors can hear but not see the students. With two-way video conferencing, people in multiple locations see and hear each other simultaneously. At present, most teleconferencing has brief time lag between the sent transmission and reception.

These are various hardware and software technologies that enable real-time video, data, and audio communications and collaboration over long distances.

A meeting that has active participants who are at geographically dispersed locations. Communication occurs through on-line audio and video technology.

Remote conferencing to one or more specific sites with the ability to send and receive both vision and audio, live.

two-way communications supported by electronic means such as satellite communications

Similar to teleconferencing, except the participants have cameras and microphones attached to their computers and are able to see and hear each other using their computers and a computer network, or the web.

Involves using video and audio signals to link participants at different and locations for a specific purpose.

This solution provides real time video and audio to a distributed number of participants simultaneously.

Using a camera and microphone attached to the computer, allowing people to communicate over distances by video and audio links but still see and hear each other.

Video conferencing introduces new requirements to the ordinary transfer of video information. The first requirement is guaranteed minimum latency, because to sustain a moving image, the next frame of information must get to the other end soon enough to avoid image freeze. In practice, the image information is highly compressed and the effects of delayed information in a video sequence is less than the effect on voice transmission. The second requirement is synchronization. Video conferencing includes voice and other media such as electronic chalkboard. It is important that the sound replay matches the image. Equally, when an image is written on the pad, the information on the electronic chalkboard should appear at the same time. The third requirement is broadcast capability. An efficient method of transmitting to multiple sites simultaneously is required when the conference involves more than two parties.

live/real-time communication between two different computer sites using video and sound.

an arrangement where television monitors, cameras and microphones are linked together to enable two or more people in different locations to see, hear and speak to one another.

Communicate in real time with two or more people at different locations via video.

A form of teleconferencing in which the participants can see the distant participants.

A live video and voice communication between 3 or more locations.

A virtual meeting, where people sit in front of cameras and watch screens/ televisions to see and hear other meeting participants.()

Real time, usually two-way, transmission of digitized video images between two or more locations. This requires a wideband transmission facility (frequently satellite) and bandwidths from 56 Kbps (freeze frame) to T1 rates (full motion).

Using a computer, video camera, and network such as the Internet, to conduct a live conference between two or more people. Video conferencing is an extremely useful method of communication because it saves people the time and expense of travel and can often accomplish many of the things a physical meeting can. A two-person videoconference is known as point-to-point, while more than two people involved in a session is a multipoint conference.

Communication across distant locations with video and audio contact that may also include graphics and data exchange.

The video audio and data communication between two parties by means of the use of a video codec.

With Video Conferencing, the audience generally sees the actual presenter on the screen. In smaller groups, the video might be two-way, so the presenter can also see the audience. The benefit to Video Conferencing is that you can actually see the presenter as they are speaking. However, the drawback is that video quality is often poor, and the equipment to properly conduct a video conference can be cost prohibitive.

Using video and computer technology to transmit video among the participants of a meeting.

Communication between two or more parties that involves both a video and an audio link.

video and audio communication between remote parties facilitated by Broadband.

The real-time, two-way transmission of digitized video images and audio between two or more locations. Typically uses a special monitor, video cameras, microphones, and software.

the means by which two or more people in different locations may "conference" in real time using video recorders and transmitters.

Video communications that allow conferences and meetings to be held with participants who may be scattered across a room, a building, a country, or the globe. Reducing the need to travel to and from meetings should save employee time, increase productivity, and reduce travel expenses and energy consumption.

Conducting a conference between two or more computers at different locations by the use of networks to transmit and receive audio and video data.

Video conferencing is usually a two-way, real-time, transmission of images and voice between at least two or more locations. Both voice and video (analog) signals are actually digitized by video codices. This happens before a transmission which can involve wide bandwidths. To conserve bandwidth, some of the systems employ a "freeze frame," which is where a television screen is just "repainted" every few seconds. Codecs for a higher-quality full motion video act with the attempt to minimize the bandwidth requirements and do so by taking advantage of the intervals occuring with relatively little motion (those that require smaller bandwidths), and also by trading off smooth motion and picture and tracking resolution.

involves two or more parties in different locations engaging in communication via video transmission.

Video and audio communication between two or more people via a video CODEC (coder/decoder) at either end and linked by digital circuits.

Real time video that allows users to recieve sound and pictures at the same tiome. Excellent business benefit that can reduce travelling time to meetings and ensures remote users can stay in touch with the office.

Becoming increasingly popular, video conferencing is video telephony technology allowing two or more individuals, or businesses, to communicate in real time with each other via computer and a camera.

The technology which enables a number of people to partake in a conference without leaving their offices through the use of microphones, cameras and displays.

Technology that permits users to communicate via voice and video over phone lines or the network.

facilitates a face-to-face meeting environment with the use of special equipment (or a personal computer) to others within the same city, nation or those located elsewhere. More than one location at a time may be connected through a telecommunications bridge or through special features within the video conference unit. Video conferencing facilitates telemedicine and telehealth activities including consultation, e-Learning activities such as CME and CNE, as well as management meetings.

The term Video Conferencing applies to a wide range of situations from live video lecturing to large audiences, to a point-to-point, individual-to-individual desktop PCs. Usually allows for broadcast from a central point to many different locations regardless of distance. Video conferencing is the transmission of image (video) and speech (audio) back and forth between two or more physically separate locations through the use of cameras (to capture and send video from your local endpoint), video displays (to display video received from remote endpoints), microphones (to capture and send audio from your local endpoint), and speakers (to play audio received from remote endpoints).

Medium (or mode) for delivery of a course. Instruction is delivered via live video-conferencing capabilities. This mode allows for two-way communication. ocational training Courses in which a learner studies a specific trade or occupation. eb The World Wide Web, a system for accessing and looking at sites on the Internet. The Web is formed by many sites that are connected electronically by hyperlinks (words that are highlighted on a Web page; one clicks on a hyperlink to move to a different Web page).

The process of conducting a conference between two or more participants over a network in such a way that the participants are visible. Point-to-point video conferencing involves just two participants, while multipoint video conferencing involves three or more.

Live video and audio communication between three or more locations.

Real-time visual and audio communication using a computer, video camera or web camera, and a network, such as the Internet. Examples of video conferencing include an instructor delivering a live lecture from one central point to many different students, all geographically separated, or a meeting between two students collaborating on a group project.

A meeting, held in different geographic locations, linking members by television screens and microphones, or web cams.

n. Teleconferencing in which video images are transmitted among the various geographically separated participants in a meeting. Originally done using analog video and satellite links, today video conferencing uses compressed digital images transmitted over wide area networks or the Internet. A 56K communications channel supports freeze-frame video; with a 1.544-Mbps (T1) channel, full-motion video can be used.
