Klewel press release: Triskel, a new generation webcasting platform

September 1st, 2011 No comments

Martigny, Switzerland, September 1, 2011

The company Klewel announces today the launch of Triskel©. Klewel will be showcasing its new product Triskel© at the international exhibition of audiovisual IBC 2011 in Amsterdam on September 9-13, 2011, Hall 4, Stand 4.C85. Firstly intended for audiovisual professionals and event service agencies, Triskel© is a comprehensive webcasting platform to record and publish presentations given at events such as international conferences.

What is Triskel©?

Triskel© consists of an audio-visual recording station associated with a web portal. The Triskel© station can be used with a microphone (or the output of a mixing console) and a camera (or the output of the audiovisual control room). Recording of each event starts and stops at the simple press of a button. Once recording is complete, data is automatically uploaded to a server. The Klewel station is available as a portable computer or it may be delivered in a customised form to meet conference organizers’ needs.

Triskel’s web portal makes it possible to automatically reference, edit and publish content (audio, video, slide shows) in total simplicity. One click and it’s online! In addition, the content of each presented slide is also indexed for search purpose. Each event is accessible anytime, anywhere (at home, at the office or elsewhere) and can be viewed on all types of media: computer, mobile phone, tablet, etc.

Added value and innovation

Triskel© is the indispensable production tool for an audiovisual agency wishing to be at the state-of-the-art of webcasting. It offers multiple benefits. Triskel© not only keeps your presentations alive but also ensures that they can be consulted quickly and clearly, and easily retrieved (search engine), personalised at will, directly integrated in any website, viewed on all types of media (computer, tablet, mobile phone) and accessible online (general public) or via Intranet (protected).

No need to ask each speaker for their original PowerPoints, hassle free for conference organizers. Triskel© allows to visualize any projection whatever the original format (PowerPoint, PDF), including videos within the slides. One of the special features of Klewel is to offer an audio search engine, based on voice recognition software, which can find one or more keywords in speeches. In addition, it provides an integrated statistical tool which can measure the interest generated by the presentations and target future content in a relevant way.

History of Triskel©

Since 2007, the company offers its services for seminars of all sizes and international conferences. Also since the creation of this company, the engineers from the Klewel have been working on this product Triskel©, being responsive to the market. The services have helped the team to develop the product Triskel©. Klewel grew from the needs of its customers. Triskel©© has been tested with several customers including the EPFL in Lausanne to record and webcast courses and seminars.

How many times are speakers heard to ask: Can I have your slides?

August 30th, 2011 No comments

How many times are speakers heard to ask: “Can I have your slides?” I said to myself, we must find a way to automate this service by filming conferences. The project got under way, the team came together, and finally an innovative webcasting solution saw the light of day. Klewel quickly attracted its first clients, prestigious or- ganisations such as UNICEF, the ACM (Association for Computing Machinery), and then, thanks to the partnership with Montreux Conference Centre, Nestlé and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) which uses Klewel services not only in Switzerland but also in Washington (USA) and Shanghai (China).

The more our solution was used, the more we were able to develop our services. You could say we’ve grown on the back of our clients’ requirements… For example today, one of the special features of Klewel is to offer an audio search engine, based on voice recognition software, which can find one or more keywords in speeches. From 2009, Klewel users could find the text or video sequence of a presentation at the precise point of interest to them. In 2010, we developed the Klewel station intended in particular for use by educators and audiovisual agencies. Since 2011, it has been possible to view presentations not only on a computer but also on tablets and mobile phones, in High Definition. Today we have a cutting-edge technological tool that’s simple to use, and above all in-depth knowledge of the world of events organisation. To serve you, at your side, in the spirit of constructive partnership that guides our actions, we look forward to continuing our story.

A few days before IBC2011 tradeshow in Amsterdam, Klewel team is preparing the launch of its new product Triskel.
