Online readers expect immediate access to live coverage of breaking news, just like a 24 hour TV news channel. Exciting live video can drive readership, increase the amount of time people spend on the site and strengthen reader loyalty. Now’s the time to leverage your newsgathering team and monetize your online site with a cost- effective, simple-to-use live video acquisition solution. LiveU, the leader in portable live video-over-cellular solutions, enables you to transmit live video from anywhere, at any time, via a simple backpack, belt-clip unit, laptop, tablet and even smartphone. LiveU’s solutions include multiple 4G LTE/3G, HSPA+, WiMAX and Wi-Fi cellular links, which are optimized for maximum video quality based on the available network conditions. Compatible with leading CDNs and live video platforms, LiveU’s uplink solutions support inputs from a variety of field editing and switching devices, when streaming video over your website. With all LiveU products operating within a single ecosystem, control rooms can easily manage multiple incoming video feeds and content from units operating in different locations. Whenever a breaking news story, sporting, or entertainment event takes place around the world, chances are you’ll see several LiveU devices in the field. To find out how top-tier broadcasters (e.g. BBC, NBC), news agencies (e.g. AP) and online media in 80 countries are using LiveU solutions for live newsgathering, please contact us for a demo. Customer Examples VG Norway: VG, Norway’s leading newspaper, news website and now online video news site, has been able to successfully expand its live video content use via the deployment of LiveU’s technology. The newspaper group is using both multiple LiveU backpacks as well as LiveU’s new mobile app solution. This app allows customers to extend their live video coverage from the field using a smartphone or tablet. VG uses the LiveU technology for both live content and the playback of “as-live” clips via store and forward to the control room. Click Here Click Here Hamburger Abendblatt: The Hamburg regional newspaper owned by Axel Springer AG, has deployed LiveU to expand its online video use. The regional newspaper is leveraging the power of live video to capture the attention of both existing and new readers. The technology has been deployed to bring successful sports blog “Matz Ab!” to the web. Hamburger Abendblatt uses LiveU’s belt-clip unit over both 3G and 4G in combination with a Panasonic HPX171 camera. For the backend there’s a LiveU cloud server, OVP from Brightcove and Akamai CDN. Click Here Leading Spanish Media including El Pais via Spanish audio visual services company, LIVE Audiovisual: Key Spanish national media – including El Pais – use LIVE Audiovisual to supply video services based on LiveU’s live video uplink technology. Video is now an essential and popular part of the national media’s online coverage with stories receiving a huge hit rate. As well as El Pais, LIVE Audiovisual also uses LiveU technology for work with Group VOCENTO (ABC newspaper) and the ZETA Group (El Periódico). It has also provided coverage of events at the Racecourse de la Zarzuela in Madrid and for the non-profit corporate organisation ONCE. LIVE Audiovisual uses both LiveU’s store & forward and live transmission capabilities. As well as providing significant economic advantages in the field, it has also allowed the company to change the way that it shoots, no longer recording with a view to producing finished video items, but in order to transmit either live or with a short delay. Click Here Telegraph Media Group working with Garland Partners: Telegraph Media Group has been working to expand its live online video coverage for its audience with LiveU’s UK distributor, Garland Partners Limited. Looking to enhance its online live video presence for its news, sports, political, and entertainment content, The Telegraph has invested in the technology needed to allow live video streaming. This investment lets the media outlet broadcast not only to its website, but also to its audience using iPads and through iPhones. LiveU’s technology allows the reporters to transmit high-quality video live across 3G and 4G networks, getting breaking news out faster. Wearing the LiveU backpack, Telegraph reporters can send live feeds directly from the news source back to the outlet’s studio.

  • Spectrum Abundance and the Choice Between Private and Public Control
    SPECTRUM ABUNDANCE AND THE CHOICE BETWEEN PRIVATE AND PUBLIC CONTROL STUART MINOR BENJAMIN* Prominent commentators recently have proposed that the government allocate sig- nificant portions of the radio spectrum for use as a wireless commons. The problem for commons proposals is that truly open access leads to interference, which renders a commons unattractive. Those advocating a commons assert, how- ever, that a network comprising devices that operate at low power and repeat each other's messages can eliminate the interference problem. They contend that this possibility renders a spectrum commons more efficient than privately owned spec- trum, and in fact that private owners would not create these "abundant networks" in the first place. In this Article, Professor Benjamin argues that these assertions are not well founded, and that efficiency considerationsfavor private ownership of spectrum. Those advocating a commons do not propose a network in which anyone can transmit as she pleases. The abundant networks they envision involve significant control over the devices that will be allowed to transmit. On the question whether private entities will create these abundantnetworks, commons advocates emphasize the transaction costs of aggregating spectrum, but those costs can be avoided via allotment of spectrum in large swaths. The comparative question of the efficiency of private versus public control, meanwhile, entails an evaluation of the implica- tions of the profit motive (enhanced ability and desire to devise the best networks, but also the desire to attain monopoly power) versus properties of government action (the avoidance of private monopoly, but also a cumbersome process that can be subject to rent-seeking).

  • Emerging RTC Use-Cases Innovative and Vertical-Market Use Cases of Voice/Video Real-Time Communications
    Emerging RTC use-cases Innovative and Vertical-Market Use Cases of Voice/Video Real-Time Communications A Disruptive Analysis thought-leadership paper June 2018 Author: Dean Bubley Contact: [email protected] © Disruptive Analysis Ltd. RTC use-cases, June 2018: CALLSTATS I/O Oy 1 Executive Summary This white paper examines the ongoing proliferation of voice and video communications, beyond familiar uses like “calling” and “conferencing”. A new breed of interactive experiences is starting to emerge, spanning consumer and enterprise domains, mobile and new devices, private applications and public services. These solutions span both “verticals” (meaning specific industries, such as automotive, healthcare or finance), and new generic “horizontal” functions like AI, chatbots, security and emotion-detection. While the vanguard of this trend is already visible, Disruptive Analysis believes this is only just the tip of the iceberg. Since starting to write about “the future of voice” in 2009, and covering WebRTC technology as an enabler for new forms of video in 2011, much has already occurred. Most owners of smartphones have 5, 10, 20 or more applications with some form of communications capability, either as primary or secondary functions. Social apps are especially good examples, with Instagram recently adding a video calling feature. In the last two years, we have also started seeing interactive voice-assistant speakers like Google Home or Amazon Echo, as well as other new initiatives like real-time video- streaming, camera-equipped consumer drones, and mainstream “video doctor” services advertised and adopted broadly. New business processes are being developed around app-embedded voice or video, such as voice biometric identification, or “know your customer” compliance tools for online banking.
