We were going to try to do this in-house. But with the Echo360System, we were able to get started on a tight time frame."

Rewind Lectures in Every Class, Everyday

Affordable and easy to operate, the Echo360System makes on-demand, web review of class audio, video, and visual aids a valuable addition to curriculum.

A New Approach to Curriculum

Capture all aspects of a classroom lecture for web-based, interactive, rich media playback. Through replay of the entire classroom experience, students benefit from greater retention, comprehension, and success.

Campus-wide Integration

Automatic and affordable, the Echo360System is a breakthrough solution, the first practical enough to be deployed campus-wide. It seamlessly integrates with existing systems and technologies. An entire semester’s captures can be scheduled in minutes. Yet, it’s also flexible, allowing remote updates via a simple Web-based interface.

Step Saving Management

With hands-off operation, there’s no need for technical staff to monitor, modify, or manually upload lectures to Web pages.

Universally Viewable

Playback works on any platform, with high or low speed connections. DVD-style controls allow review at the individual’s pace.

Full Fidelity, Fully Accessible

Preserve the classroom experience as it happened with a full-motion instant replay of the lecture, including course visuals. Closed captioning capabilities ensure access for the entire student population.

Options for Connection Speeds

With every capture, the Echo360System creates versions in high-bandwidth/video, high-bandwidth/audio, and low-bandwidth/audio (a "flipbook"). Viewers can choose the version optimized for their connection speed.

MP3, Flash, and Streaming Server Support

Audio-only presentations are compiled into an MP3 file for playback on an iPod, MP3 player, or computer. Video presentations integrate with Windows, Real, or Flash media servers for playback on a Mac, PC, or Linux computer and popular web browsers.

Streaming Recommended

"Streaming" (rather than downloading) of echoed content allows navigation as soon as playback has begun. Because the content does not reside on the end user's machine, streaming eases intellectual property concerns.
