AutoAuditorium Presentation at Government Video Expo 2002
This event took place on Wednesday, 4 December 2002.
Michael Bianchi, founder of Foveal Systems LLC, will give a talk entitled
The Role of Automatic Video Production in Distance Education
Abstract of the talk
Using video for internal communications and distance education is often limited
by the costs and complexities of traditional video production.
The totally
automatic camera and editting techniques of the AutoAuditorium System create
videos easily and inexpensively.
The AutoAuditorium environment is one that,
once turned on, works entirely automatically.
Multi-camera videos of
auditorium or classroom presentations are produced without any human control at
all and no distractions.
The system reacts to the people on stage and the
projected visuals in real time.
Audiences watching from a distance or in the
future see the same program as those in the room.
Because making a video of a presentation is so easy and inexpensive the
question changes from "can we afford to make this video?" to "what do we do
with the videos we are creating?".
Some are only watched live.
Some, for a
time, are placed into video-on-demand servers.
Some become part of a
permanent collection.
The cost of equipping auditoriums or classrooms with the AutoAuditorium System
is quickly recouped in many ways.
Some of the savings come from the lower
production costs.
More comes from lower travel costs.
Non-financial benefits
include more and better informed people, greater cross-organizational
awareness, and longer organizational memory.
