This system created a video and two way audio link from medical labs to a remote lecture theatre to provide a live link and teaching facility at a leading clinic.

The system brought all imagery and sound from the labs to a local hub. A remote lecture theatre, and a separate remote conference room request live links to be set using a 'request and response' messaging protocol.

Establishing a live link 'locks out' the other potential audience, while the Professor can monitor all images and sound from his office.

The clinic hosts international conferences and used to hire in specialist TV crews for the job. The system takes the place of the TV crew and has to perform impeccably. There is no room for error, and each system function has to be presented in the clearest possible manner. Certain security features also look after patient privacy.

The system has to work without any input from an AV technician. It has now hosted several important conferences without problems.

Users have control over cameras, and can use picture in picture facilities to tailor the presentations.

The hub can be set to make automatic recordings which follow the links as they are made.

Moving message signs inside the labs inform the clinical staff that they are live on camera.
