UbiDuo2 ‘Face to Face’ Communicator, Instantaneous Typing Letter by Letter.

As you can see, we have two devices here. I’m going to show you the different ways these can be set up. As you can see we have horizontal and the vertical screen splits here. It’s a touch screen, so, if you go to settings, there’s an option here for different displays and split screens. We have 2 devices today, so this is a two-way conversation but you can have up to 4 conversations at once. The set up for that is either 4 horizontal screens, or a split screen, as you can see.

As you can see, what I am typing is instantaneously appearing on the other screen. The devices are connected by secure wireless encryption. You are able to change the colour, the font colour, the background colour — it’s really up to you what settings are on your particular device.

If we have a quick look at the administration control, you are able to individually control all of these aspects. You are able to set up passwords. You are able to switch on and off whether a device should be wireless enabled. You are able to decide whether chats should be able to be saved within the memory of the device or not. If you look here, you are also able to block the ability of the USB to connect to the device. Obviously, in some areas of work it might be advantageous to switch off the USB posts so that conversations cannot be shared, or you might want to be able to move conversations from the device using the USB port.

This device is also available to connect to other devices within a range of 300 ft. You’re allowed up to ten devices on your list. So there might be 10 other machines this device is able to connect to, but only 4 people would be able to engage in a conversation at one time. The device is very similar, in the way it works, to MSN. You have to send someone a friends request and then they have the option to either accept or ignore their request. This machine on the right is called ‘Tim’ – You can see it here at the top of the list. By clicking on the name, you are able to have these options. Thank you very much for watching.
