 DESCRIPTION-

        Enable streaming video using the BAMBA technology and define a
        standard for video-conferencing so that any OS/2 user can video
        conference with any other OS/2 user via the WWW who has the
        minimum hardware configuration.  The minimum hardware should be
        a 33K modem, a Pentium 133 MHz computer, and a real-time video
        camera.  The standards and interface should be enabled such
        that pointing and clicking to a desktop object should initiate
        the connection and notify the user on the other end of an
        incoming video call.  The system should use available bandwidth
        to determine:

        ATTRIBUTES:

        HIGH Value
        Desired NEXT full release

        1.  Color enable (yes or no)
        2.  Picture size
        3.  Picture frame refresh rate.

        OS/2 is the ideal  platform to initiate this with and most of
        the hardware and software is already developed.  It just needs
        integration, standards, and propagation.
