CHAPTER 5
The Camera and Voice Pod
The Camera and Voice pod is used for displaying video that is broadcast live to meeting 
participants, and it provides controls for regulating broadcasts of live audio and video to 
participants. Presenters can send and regulate broadcasts, and they can enable broadcasts from 
participants who are not presenters. Unless a presenter enables them, participants cannot 
broadcast either audio or video. A presenter can specify that both audio and video can be 
broadcast, or that only video or only audio can be broadcast. 
For broadcasting audio, a microphone must be connected to the broadcaster’s computer. 
Similarly, for broadcasting video, a web camera must be connected to the broadcaster’s computer. 
The following are two scenarios for the use of broadcasting. In the first, both audio and video are 
broadcast. In the second, only video is broadcast:
Virtual classroom
  The meeting room is a virtual classroom and a presenter functions as the 
course instructor. What the instructor says is broadcast to participants. A video camera broadcasts 
an image of the instructor as the instructor speaks. Participants in the class are not enabled to use 
audio or video. To communicate with the instructor, participants can use the Chat pod (see 
). 
Virtual meeting
  The meeting room is used as a virtual meeting place in which geographically 
separated colleagues can carry on a discussion. Broadcasting is enabled for all participants. When 
a participant speaks, a video image of the participant is broadcast. However, because of limitations 
in the way the Internet handles audio material, a conference call is used for spoken 
communication between participants, instead of audio broadcasting.
Broadcasting audio and video
If a presenter has enabled broadcasting by participants, your Camera and Voice pod shows a Start 
Broadcast button.
