Do-It-Yourself Options
For a low-cost solution to individuals needing to connect with professional quality video-conferencing systems from remote locations, learn more about Movi, a PC-based format that is compatible with larger-scale H.264 formats. Movi is supported and administered through AMPS.
For point-to-point connectivity between individuals, we recommend self-service solutions such as Skype and iChat.
