Unrivalled Digital Media
Indy has plenty of media tools to enhance communication. Now you can
incorporate 3D graphics, photorealistic images, video, CD/DAT-quality
audio, and text into your work, in real time and all in digital format.
Best of all, IndyCam, digital and analog video-in, microphone, CD-quality
audio, support for Kodak Photo-CD(tm) format, and software media tools are
standard with every Indy workstation.
IndyCam is an ideal tool for collaborative workgroup communications. The
video subsystem performs filtered scaling to 1/2, 1/3, and 1/4 screen, or
IndyCam can capture full-resolution, full-frame video directly to memory
in true digital format. CD/DAT-quality audio includes four channels of
analog audio and two channels of digital audio. Inexpensive third-party
software supports full-motion MPEG1 and video CD playback.
Indigo Magic User Environment
Indigo Magic is a new generation desktop user environment that combines
an intuitive desktop management system with powerful digital media tools in
a single user interface. We call it a "Media User Interface" because Indigo
Magic simplifies system and network access and facilitates collaborative
computing with unique digital media tools that let you capture, create, and
communicate your ideas in ways that are more vivid and compelling than you
ever imagined.
With the Indigo Magic Desk Manager, create multiple iconic desktops with
all the applications, files and tools you'll need
to work on specific projects. System administration and management is a
breeze. Set up your printer and user accounts and connect to a network
with just the click of an icon. The Indigo Magic User Environment is
"network aware," so you can easily find and use all the resources on your
network.
InPerson Multi-Point Teleconferencing
The optional InPerson(tm) software gives your team the tools to share
technical and creative information without ever leaving the office.
