We propose that the original teleconference room be remodelled to accommodate video equipment. This leaves the control room available for its primary function, monitoring, editing and control. A sixteen input digital mixer will harness the multitude of microphone and line inputs for the lecture hall and network broadcasts. The non-linear editing system will also share this room. Each conference room will contain at least core services.
Audio support includes an amplifier and a pair of wall mounted speakers.
We hope to provide video conferencing into each of these conference rooms. A minimum setup could be accomplished with an Intel MMX PC, but we wish to have full MPEG and ATM video conferencing in these rooms as soon as possible. With the proposed imaging resources and the SVL, researchers will be able to create high quality documents, electronic media and presentation materials quickly and professionally. Almost seventy-five percent of the prices listed do not reflect possible University of Utah discounts and are suggested list prices. Obviously, the final total of this proposal far exceeds the amount the is currently allocated in the building budget for video and imaging resources.
