Streambox is expanding their line of hardware and software solutions to allow contributors out in remote locations to send live or recorded video back to a centralized studio over multiple networks such as 3G/4G mobile, wifi, wired, etc – separately or combined.  They feature software for the PC to allow any video equipment attached to connect back to the studio encoder. The Avenir is a backpack encoder that can take video and transcode and send it over the same networks mentioned above. They now have software for the iPhone and iPad as well that allow them to function as remote broadcasting tools. All of these tie into an encoder in the studio that sells for around $8000 and software encoding licenses are around $3500.
