Evaluation of a Scalable and Distributed Mobile Device Video Recording Approach for Accessible Presentations

Abstract—We evaluate the scalability of a multiple view distributed approach to recording presentations that utilizes camera equipped mobile devices. We show this approach is scalable in terms of video resolution, bandwidth and power. This scalability enables users with a broader range of mobile devices to effectively participate in presentations. We show our approach is less expensive, more scalable, flexible and easier to deploy than traditional presentation recordings. In addition, our solution supports accessible views, which enables participation by deaf and/or blind participants. Keywords- multiple video recordings, accessible technology, simulation 1 I
