Case Study: Rio+Social achieves HD, low-cost global live video connection with VSee

VSee links Linkin Park to Rio+20

Rio+Social needed to bring remote voices into the Rio+20 conversation—specifically a live discussion with Linkin Park members Mike Shinoda and Dave Farrell in Los Angeles—without using costly satellite links or specialized infrastructure. VSee supplied the HD video conferencing capability, running the session with just a USB speakerphone and an HD camera.

VSee delivered a 720p full-motion video stream across more than 6,000 miles, enabling a half-hour conversation projected to an audience of 600 at the Rio+Social event. The result was a high-quality, sustainable international video call that avoided expensive hardware, demonstrating VSee’s ability to achieve measurable reach and broadcast-quality impact.
