Objectives
- This research goal was to build a platform for realtime collaboration on WWW.
Web sharing features
- Realtime synchronization of existing Web browser
Users can use the existing Web browser in collaborative work.
- Window view synchronization: window size, scroll position
- HTML form status synchronization: text input, button operation
- Integrated collaboration tools: Telepointer, Annotation tool
- Browser sharing in low bandwidth
We have designed the browser synchronization protocol which is optimized for low bandwidth. This protocol requires less bandwidth than existing application sharing method which transfers the screen image. Browser sharing functions can be used with Internet telephony applications in home environment.
- APIs for building collaborative applications on WWW
We provide the APIs for building Web-based collaboration applications. Application programmers can make a detail control of collaborative functions such as conference setup APIs, token control APIs and collaboration tool APIs.
