GOnewsTV does not require special equipment,
enabling any citizen can become a news reporter. All that
“reporters-to-be” require is a computer with a webcam or
connected DV camera. The PC must be connected to either an
ADSL/Cable Internet connection or have an antenna for
transmitting via WiFi or HSDPA. GOnewsTV
offers citizens reporters an easy to use, straight forward,
web-based graphical user interface. The interface application
automatically handles connection with the GOnewsTV Asset
Management Server, further simplifying the process of reporting
news. Once connected, reporters have the option of recording a
news report or choosing to make a live report.
Two-way Video Interaction
GOnewsTV provides two-way video interaction
between citizen reporters and the news studio. This enables news
producers in the studio to interview would-be reporters in a
one-on-one interview in order to see if they are relevant for
sending on-air. Once connected to the broadcast, the two-way
interaction enables them to interact with the news anchor
directly via the GOnewsTV interface.
