Enabling Technologies
When you´r born in the 80th and you might think Facebook , twitter, ustream.tv, buzz or chatroulette is cool, but there was something much cooler out there allready , no not IRC, it was called CU-seeme, but a difficult licensing tree, NAT and finally MJPG was the nail in the coffin.
Our goal with openCU (open see you ) , is to create an NEW , highly reliable, opensource ,cross-platform, multiconferencing Implementation of the outdated cuseeme control protocol , with a social approach .
The latest OpenCu v0.09 version, without WAB support , works at present just on Windows plattforms ( XP and Vista ) seamlessly and use XVid/speex for compressed streaming media communication and a textchat window.
With openCU installed on your computer, you will be able to see and hear people ,connected to the internet, without any registration.
Later on, clients /nodes , will be able to publish openCU as a services via Wide area Bonjour.
The goal is to combine large scalable realtime multi conferencing, desktopsharing and multicast streaming with zeroconfiguration ad-hoc routing to provide a new user experience for collaboration , application sharing ,entertainment , and knowledge exchange.
openCU is made to close the gap between Multipoint Control Unit based expensive hardware solutions and proprietary, web-based subscription solutions like Adobe breeze (Macromedia Breeze) or Webex from Cisco.
