Internet Video/Audio and Text Streaming

Through our own proprietary software, Caption Colorado offers full service captioning on the Internet that is compatible with all video, audio and text streaming player formats and other possible applications for streaming on the Web. The captioning is error-free, time-coded for synchronization with the audio and is presented in an attractive captioning window that allows the viewer to select personally pleasing font type, size and color, and background color. Alternative languages can also be added as an option for the viewer.

Realtime Financial Reporting

Caption Colorado provides real-time transcription and captioning of speakers and presentations at annual, quarterly and other financial meetings of public reporting companies. The transcription is streamed live to the Internet. Immediately following the event, the full real-time transcript is edited to 99.5% accuracy and placed on the customer's website for public or limited authorized access. Precise synchronization of the captioning text to the audio presentation is optional.

This service is intended to help the public reporting companies comply with SEC Regulations requiring quick, accurate and broad dissemination of financial information when released to the public. The service is also of value to the investment banking industry, and those who serve it, to secure timely and accurate financial information in which broker-employees and customers have an interest.

Education/Online Learning

Caption Colorado offers real-time captioning for a variety of live online learning applications. In a live interactive classroom setting on the internet our technology allows professors and students to engage in a live audio conversation online, while our captioners transcribe and stream the lecture and discussion to an Internet presentation accompanying the online learning conference facility.

An up-to-the-minute near-verbatim transcript of the lecture and discussion is available to all of the students and the professor at all times. A live transcript can help students review what has been said so far in class and can help the student understand the professor's message or formulate questions. A full transcript of the lecture is available immediately after the class for students to print and use for subsequent study and test preparation.

Pre-recorded audio or video used in the professor's presentation can also be captioned, and fully synchronized with the audio, before the lecture is presented in class.

Captioned oral presentations are statistically proven to result in better learning and retention rates for students than traditional oral lectures alone. Captioning your live synchronous online learning program could result in better education value and will increase the market for your courses by making them accessible to deaf and hard-of-hearing students.

Teleconference

Caption Colorado can provide real-time captioning as an add-on service to a teleconference call. Users of the service only need a computer with an Internet connection. Instant access to a written transcript of the conversation results in clearer and more effective communication, leaving little room for confusion. All parties can access the transcript during the call for clarification or for recalling what was said earlier. Immediately after completion of the call, participants may receive a printable version of the complete transcript.

Caption Colorado can edit, time-code and synchronize the text with the audio after the teleconference to produce a perfect archivable record of the discussion. The service is especially useful with International conference calls where English is a second language for some participants. We can even offer real-time second language translation as well by delivering two streams of text to the internet in two different languages accessible by all participants.

TTY Teleconference

In order to make regular teleconferencing accessible to the deaf community and to provide them with a voice to participate, Caption Colorado offers real-time streamed captioning via the Internet of teleconferences that involves one or more TTY users. This service may be used in conjunction with TTY operators for Voice Relay or our captioner will provide the Voice Relay in addition to the captioning. We use our own proprietary text streaming software technology for the service, which has a special communication center that allows the TTY user to communicate, by computer keyboard, directly with our captioner. When the TTY user wants to speak to the other participants in the teleconference, they send their communication to our captioner, who, in turn, relays the communication on to the other participants by voice.
