Demand for rich media and video content is on the rise, rapidly becoming an expected part of the college experience.  Supporting a campus-wide lecture capture initiative can be a daunting task for already stretched technology teams. Echo360 responds to the need for reliable capture and publishing with an automated system
to schedule, capture, produce and deliver rich media lectures and podcasts.

The EchoSystem is a complete platform powered by a backend server that controls lecture capture
operations from a central location. Using the EchoSystem, institutions can:

• Schedule classrooms and instructors to be captured once at the beginning of term. 
  Schedules include faculty information, date, time and even holidays or other exclusions.
  
  
• Automatically capture in hundreds of classrooms at once.  Get an at-a-glance view of
  each day’s captures and notifications of system success and errors through system monitoring.
  
  
• Automatically package lectures into rich media and podcast formats simultaneously while
  creating a high-quality digital master for future use.
  
  
• Automatically apply Section 508 compliant closed captions as needed.
  
  
• Automatically publish to course/learning management systems, podcasting platforms and
  homegrown portals.
  
  
• Understand viewing habits, most popular lectures and system capacity using EchoSystem’s
  reporting capabilities.
