Another great Seattle Mobile meeting
Monday night was the first Seattle Mobile meeting we've had on a Monday. We moved the meetings so we could ensure availability of the room we rent. We had a pretty good turnout. June's topic was "Mobile Video" and we had some great presentations. Devkumar Gandhi of Vidiator gave a really interesting presentation of their technologies and services. Vidiator is a video technology company owned by Hutchicon Wampoa (The owners of Hutchison 3G) and they have launched product in 9 countries in Europe and Asia. Devkumar showed their awesome 3D avatar technology which lets them make 3D avatars complete with body/head/lip movement sync for people as well as other characters. They had some really compelling animated avatar video content that is currently on the market in Europe and Asia.
Tricia Iboshi from The Platform also a great presentation on what they are doing in the mobile space. The platform is a video/media hosting company that is doing all the hosting/streaming for Verizon's V-Cast service. Very exciting stuff.
I've posted all my pictures to the Seattle Mobile FlICKR photostream with the tag "Seattle Mobile".
