ISDN

Internet Streaming Digital Node

The idea is to build a “as low cost as possible” device a speaker can use to remotely present. While there would be cheaper options for some of the components we also want to use off the shelf components that are world wide available or at least interchangeable. The idea of this project was born after first test with the RPI HQ Camera which provides a great quality / price ratio. The basic features, anticipated for the first revision are:

• Camera to record the presenter
• HDMI Input to capture slides / audio from a PC / Laptop
• Headset for audio recording and intercom
• Display to show the current image
• Touchscreen for minima user interface
• USB Storage to record locally
• Stream via RTMP or SRT

(for version 3.14)

• Reconfiguration using qr-codes (e.g. using gst zbar plugin)
• Tiny customizable / distributable firmware images
• Integrated back-channel for audio and video
• Using the back-channel to implement talks with multiple speakers
• Integration into existing conference tools to allow audience participation (maybe serverside, to reduce locally required bandwidth and computing power)
• Whiteboard and/or Pointer functionality
• Quick-“Screen blanking / Audio muting” functionality for instant privacy
• Allow for PDF-slides instead of using HDMI-Input (premium: store all information so it could automatically be re-rendered with the original pdf later on, for higher quality)

• More stable and overall better case with less loose wires (especially the camera-flex…)
• Integrating camera into a ring-light
• Decouple camera+display to reduce camera wiggle when using the touchscreen
• Solve power delivery issues for ring-light
• Reduce desk-footprint
• Better solution for audio (very cheap headsets are not the yellow from the egg)
• Better options for wireless networking (integrated wifi on the pi4 is not-that-great and useless if bluetooth is also used)
• Bluetooth remote for quick scene switches
• Easier to build

(smartphone holder, smaller case / screen, different cam holder)

(final case, final screen, improvised tripod mount, final cam mount)
