Indian developer Adiance Technologies has released an Alpha version
of 1Videoconference, which it claims is one of the World's First open source
web-based video conferencing solutions for Asterisk.
According to a statement from the company, it has succeeded in developing a
solution to stream
asterisk audio/video channels to a web browser, which could lead to
advanced video solutions such as, IP TV, video conferencing, video contact
center, remote surveillance, video kiosk and video PBX.
The 1VideoConference, available on Source forge, now allows web, audio/video
phone, Skype, MSN and Yahoo users to participate in a multipoint video
conference.
But it could also be used as a platform for video services
like TV shows, photography shows, marketing events, network games, social
community sites, video wiki, blogs and forums, video tutorials, video library
and more, says the company.
Hardik Sanghvi President and CEO of Adiance said:
"1videoConference is [a] true enabler of video/voice and data interactions
among the web and phone users.
"Being open source, web-based and foot print free,
video enabled and cost effective, 1videoConference, as I envision, will change
the way people and businesses collaborate on day to day basis."
The solution relies on .NET 3.0 and Asterisk and has some advanced features
such as the ability to switch from a fixed line internet connection to a voice
only mobile connection mid-conference if the line goes down.
Some of the in-conference features include; audience poll, destop-sharing,
co-browsing, whiteboard, weblink, remote monitoring and co-authoring, according
to Adiance.
