Case Study: Computer History Museum achieves searchable, accessible videos with 3Play Media

Computer History Museum makes 400+ recordings searchable with 3Play Media

The Computer History Museum, a non-profit organization, faced the challenge of making its extensive collection of historical video recordings both accessible for research and engaging for a modern audience. To solve this, they partnered with vendor 3Play Media to implement interactive transcripts, which bridge the gap between searchable text and the unique qualities of video.

3Play Media's solution provided interactive transcripts that are synced to the video, allowing the museum to combine the research functionality of written text with the personal factor of video. This integration simplified their workflow and made over 400 recordings more accessible. The result was an ideal solution for both the museum and its researchers, enhancing the experience of exploring computer history.
