Instant Broadcasting System is a software solution for receiving and mixing several video streams from cellphone cameras and broadcasting it live on a screen and/or to the internet. It’s an academic research project from Mobile Life in Stockholm under the lead of Ph.D student Arvid Engström.
I had the opportunity to try the new software that Arvid Engström and his team at the Interactive Institute / Mobile Life Centre has developed to be able to VJ with live video streams from cellphone cameras over what is commonly known as the Turbo 3G net.
Last spring me and Hinke Berggren did a VJ demo and discussion at the Interactive Institute in connection to the kick start of Arvid Engström’s project “Mobile Collaborative Live Video Production”. Dejakru has also been involved when Arvid later did interviews with VJs regarding how we work in live situations. The first reports are now available for download.
