Reprising live captioning services provided at the annual NAB Show in Las Vegas in April, ENCO was in New York for the recent NAB NY show, providing live captioning at select show venues.
A release explained and added, “ENCO’s automated captioning technology delivered real-time English captions to video displays at each stage while introducing an enhanced mobile experience for attendees. By scanning a QR code, audience members could access live captions directly on their smartphones or tablets through a newly redesigned, mobile-optimized website, with options to translate captions into Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, Korean, German or French.”
But there was more, “New for this year’s event, ENCO introduced voice translation that allowed attendees to listen to live stage presentations through their own earbuds and mobile devices. The technology uses a purpose-built low-latency audio streaming application to capture audio from each stage and deliver it alongside the live captioning and translation services, providing an additional listening option for attendees with hearing difficulties.”
StreamGuys provided a valuable assist with infrastructure cloud hosting.
ENCO President Ken Frommert said, “By combining real-time captioning, multilingual translation and voice translation technology across stage displays and personal mobile devices, we’re demonstrating how businesses, event organizers and other organizations can deliver more inclusive, personalized experiences that help audiences stay connected to the content that matters most.”
