Smart
Health Care can also make arrangements for Video Conferencing
facilities between two or more participants at different sites
by using computer networks to transmit audio and video data. A
point-to-point (two-person) video conferencing system works much
like a video telephone. Each participant has a video camera, microphone
and speakers mounted on his or her computer. As the two participants
speak to one another, their voices are carried over the network
and delivered to the other’s speakers, and whatever images
appear in front of the video camera appear in a window on the
other participant’s monitor.
Multipoint
videoconferencing allows three or more participants to sit in
a virtual conference room and communicate as if they were sitting
right next to each other. Until the mid 90s, the hardware costs
made videoconferencing prohibitively expensive for most organizations,
but that situation is changing rapidly. Many analysts believe
that videoconferencing will be one of the fastest-growing segments
of the computer industry in the latter half of the decade.
What
is Video Conferencing?
In
simple words we can say that video conferencing is just like a
conference between two or more participants at different locations
over the internet or a private network. Each user has a video
camera, microphone, and speakers mounted on his or her computer.
As the participants speak to one another, they hear each other’s
voices and see a video image of the other participant(s).
A
discussion between two or more group of people who are in different
places but can see and hear each other using electronic communications.
The telecommunication network carries pictures and sound and such
conferences can take place across the world. Videoconferencing
is useful tool for conducting interviews from distant places,
Medical Counseling & medical treatment can also be done with
the help of Videoconferencing
With
the help of Videoconferencing, Smart Health Care allows you to
have face-to-face conversations with other people on a network,
whether they are around the corner or on the other side of the
country.
