Video Conferencing Services in Healthcare: One Communication Platform to Support All.
We present a novel approach to the design of video conferencing (VC) systems, taking advantage of recent technological achievements in web-based implementation. Delivering VC functionality as a service over the Internet opens new grounds for easier integration, support, and application in many scenarios, since hardware-agnostic ad-hoc VC connections are a feature of the proposed architecture. Validity is demonstrated through latency measures in surgical telementoring service and comparing them to reported thresholds.
