Cornell Video: "CU-SeeMe"

What is CU-SeeMe?

Early Versions

The following are exerpts from the Cornell release info.

Cornell University's Information Technology orgranization (CIT) has developed a Macintosh videoconferencing program called CU-SeeMe. It displays 4-bit grayscale windows at either 320x240 or half that diameter, 160x120. CU-SeeMe in version 0.40 provides a one-one connection or, by use of a "reflector," a one-many, several-to-several, or several-to-many conference.".... "Each participant can decide whether to be a sender, a receiver, or both. Receiving requires only a Mac with a screen capable of displaying 16 grays and a connection to the Internet. Sending requires the same plus a SuperMac VideoSpigot board, a camera, Quicktime and SpigotVDIG extensions added to the system folder."

Version 0.70 now provides full audio capabilities as well.

A version is now available for Windows and also for the PowerMac.
