Your Audience at Your Fingertips
Bringing live video to wider audiences has never been easier. Introducing TouchStream, the revolutionary, portable live video and audio streaming appliance.

Ideal for professional media streaming in the field, on a desktop or in a rack, TouchStream appliances offer unparalleled ease-of-use through the most intuitive human interface – touch. Software controls are accessed through a vivid, streamlined touch-screen interface with integrated live video monitoring and VU meters for audio validation, eliminating the need for laptops, keyboards, mice and separate monitors.

TouchStream appliances are ideal for on-location live streaming of events such as concerts and sporting matches; remote news coverage; courtroom proceedings; PEG (public, education and government) applications; corporate communications; worship; and more. Application-targeted models let you choose the right configuration for your format needs, from Flash, Silverlight and QuickTime (Darwin server) powered web experiences to IPTV set-top boxes and mobile phones.

Unparalleled streaming quality
Though easy enough for use by novice operators, TouchStream systems are powerful enough to meet the demanding expectations of experienced streaming media users. TouchStream units feature the same exceptional, full-resolution output quality and efficient bandwidth utilization that have made Digital Rapids' StreamZ and StreamZ Live studio encoding and streaming systems the preferred choice of leading studios, broadcast networks and service providers.
