Problem:

A leader in videoconferencing equipment asked us to develop a comprehensive engineering, production and end-user test suite for their flagship H.320 PC videoconferencing product. There were several goals for the test suite: it needed to support engineering team development; decrease time to market; maximize product success; facilitate fault detection in the field; provide 100% coverage of all video, audio, embedded processor and PC subsystems; and offer remote, network-based testing.

Solution:

Bytes By Design accomplished all this by developing a Windows-based application and device driver for video and audio DMA and control which works in conjunction with embedded video and audio codecs and ISDN telecom software. In addition, we created a networked test option with the ability to monitor several concurrent systems as they were being tested.
