Getting live video reports from disaster areas as events unfold can be a logistical and technical challenge. Increasingly, relief organizations and government agencies turn to mobile video transport technologies, typically used for real-time newsgathering, as a means to getting timely video and audio reports back to decision makers for rapid assessment and response.
Streambox’s innovative video technology facilitates improved communication between relief organizations, government agencies, and first responders. The highly mobile systems, which fit into a small backpack, can be set up and start transmitting high quality video and audio reports within minutes, even when all land-based networks have been knocked out. System flexibility, reliability, and ease-of-use are critical in these applications, because the systems are very likely to be operated by non-technical staff. Streambox technology provides greater agility in gathering disaster intelligence faster, more efficiently and at a lower cost. |
