2021: Implementation of TrueConf Server

NASASpaceFlight introduced the Russian platform videosvyaziTrueConf Server for the organization of the online broadcastings devoted to the space industry. About volume on October 5, 2021, the company TrueConf reported TAdviser. The decision made it possible to achieve the effect of a professional TV show with the participation of leading cosmonautics experts, as well as broadcast video meetings to an audience of hundreds of thousands of viewers around the world.

NASASpaceFlight implemented the Russian video communication platform TrueConf Server

NASASpaceFlight - one of the media resources of the United States, which covers the latest developments and technological achievements in the field of international cosmonautics, as well as important events in the field. The organization's website is visited by more than 500 thousand people a month, including representatives of the rocket and space industry and the scientific and research space of space powers.

The main activity of NASASpaceFlight is the holding of popular science shows, during which invited world experts share professional opinions and forecasts about the future of the space sphere live on YouTube.

The project required a video conferencing platform that would allow capturing images of presenters and participants in the show in a strictly specified order in order to achieve the effect of "continuous performance" and correspond to the TV format. In addition, the NASASpaceFlight team needed its own communication system to connect remote experts from anywhere in the world with the guarantee of maintaining high quality video and sound.

NASASpaceFlight tested Zoom, but the video communication service could not provide broadcasts in a suitable format: when the speakers connected or left the conference, the video windows of the remaining participants moved, which distracted the audience and spoiled the overall impression of the show. In addition, the service did not support video calls and conferences in 4K Ultra HD resolution, which is the current format in broadcasts on YouTube.

During the selection of a suitable VKS solution, NASASpaceFlight deployed TrueConf Server, its own video communication system, which provided the project team with the ability to flexibly manage the layouts of participant windows. Using TrueConf tools, the moderator captures the layout for the presenters and guests of the conference, fixing their images on the screen in the desired order. This made it possible to achieve the effect of a television show: now the speakers are replacing each other, without violating the general structure of the improvised "online studio," which simplifies viewing the broadcast for viewers, and also eliminates the random displacement of the images of participants and the priority video window on the screen.

4K Ultra HD support in TrueConf solutions provides high-quality broadcast and allows you to achieve the effect of "live communication" between participants in the show, regardless of their geographical location.
