The system allows a lecturer or presenter to
record a presentation and easily publish it on
the internet. A video and audio of the presenter
is recorded, along with slide transitions, and
synchronized into single files in multiple
formats, allowing the viewer to watch the
presentation in any format they want. The
recording process is started with a single click
at the beginning and a second click at the end.
There is no post production done by the
presenter. Publishing of the presentation is
done through a blog format, with a post for each
lecture or presentation, in a series or semester.
The system allows multiple media files to be
combined, for example the video and presentation
would be combined into a single media file. The
Presenter can also upload external media files
and urls. The system automatically combines the
resources into several different formats.
Different combinations of slides, video and
audio, will make it possible for different users
to download the version they can use on their
viewing device. For example, an iPod Video can
render the video, audio and slides, where as an
iPod Nano can only render the audio and slides.
