Foil 4 Hardware Requirements

From Using TangoInterative in Distance Education Jackson State Miss. Training Workshop -- 16-17 August 99. by David Bernholdt, Nancy McCracken
Lecturer's workstation(s): Can be either one or two machines. With two machines, one can handle course materials and the other can handle audio/video.
At the recipient site,
  • students can have each have their own workstation receiving course materials and handling audio/video streams. (requires the most network bandwidth)
  • there can be one workstation receiving course materials and displaying them on a large screen and handling the audio/video.
  • Recommended for each student to have course materials and audio, with only one video per lab.
  • Issues about microphones at workstations are quite tricky and will be covered in more detail elsewhere.
A good well-tested audio system is crucial!
