High-quality video streaming for more comfortable online communication

Use of an online conferencing system for a discussion or classroom instruction enables communication at anytime and anywhere. Online conferences and online classes, however, have some drawbacks such as reduced sense of participation and interruptions caused by poor communication conditions. The AW-HE20W/K captures realistic images thanks to its flexible angle of view and makes online meetings more comfortable.

Wide shooting range and high-magnification zoom deliver “the ambience of hall” intact.

Equipped with the wide-angle lens and zoom function, the HE20 reliably captures important notes on a slide or blackboard so that the video conveys the lesson or presentation effectively for a better understanding. Even with a small number of camera units, there wonŁft be any missed scenes, thus assuring reliable recording of important presentations.

Excellent system flexibility to achieve smart wiring and smooth operation

Ease of setting up and operating the system is an important consideration in initiating an online conference or online class. The AW-HE20 can be linked to various types of system with simple wiring. It can be linked to a regularly used PC or remote camera controller so even people who are unfamiliar with the system operation can easily operate.

Easy installation/setup and compact system configuration.

The AW-HE20 can be connected to video equipment via network and it uses a LAN cable for the transmission of video, audio and control signals as well as power supply.
