Description
Tufts University School of Medicine implemented the Echo 360 Lecture Capture system in 2009.
The Echo360 lecture capture system includes components that allow the automation of capturing, packaging, publishing, and distributing recorded content. The Echo360 system generates a variety of file-types for playback on the web or on mobile devices. Format types include a full rich-media capture (Flash version), a podcast version (audio-only .mp3 file), and a VODcast, which includes the audio file plus image visuals which playback at five frames per second (.m4v). The full rich-media Echo360 playback environment is designed to be viewed in a web browser, and is typically streamed using a media-server.
