Bellcore's large screen teleconferencing prototype

Bellcores large screen teleconferencing prototype is the realization of a service concept for informal video and audio communication, which can be augmented with visual aids and shared computer applications, between areas where people congregate and interact. It consists of a large video display set into a wall at each location. The display is illuminated by a reverse-scanned video projector hidden behind the wall. An inventive audio system provides wideband (7-kHz) sound with complete freedom for simultaneous hands-free talking (and listening) at each installation.<<ETX>>
