New CODA screencasts available

We're firm believers in the benefit of screencasts as the best way to learn about a new system.  It's a bit like having somebody sitting beside you explaining how best to use the software - often a much better way to learn than reading a manual and trying to relate the text to what you're seeing on-screen. (Though we do, of course, have a good user manual as well!)

The Twenty Days of CODA

This month, the CODA team set themselves a challenge... above and beyond the normal one of creating the best digital signage solution out there, of course!

On the Camvine Twitter feed, each weekday throughout February, we're posting a new example of fun things you can do with your CODA system. Some of the ideas require a minimal amount of scripting, and come with example source code, others are for the less technically-inclined, but we hope all of them will inspire you to think of novel and useful ways you can make the most of CODA.

GovEd chooses CODA for LivePosters

GovEd Technologies (part of GovEd Communications) have recently announced their LiVEPoster product: a robust, A1-sized poster frame which incorporates a CODA digital display.

CODA at ISMAR 2008

When the International Symposium on Mixed and Augmented Reality brought some of the world's brightest and most interesting researchers together this summer, they used a CODA system to keep delegates in touch with conference activities.

"CODA allowed us to easily and unobtrusively communicate with our delegates, which was especially useful between breaks when relaying breaking news of competition results or photographic images of the conference banquet", said Dr Joseph Newman, one of the conference organisers. "Importantly this exchange of information occurred in an almost ambient fashion without disturbing the flow of conversation."
