SWITCHinteract is based on Adobe Connect, a popular conferencing solution for web meetings, e-learning and webinars. It offers a range of interaction options suitable for various applications from one-on-one chats to interactive lectures. Any multimedia device already has everything you need to use SWITCHinteract on board: a microphone, a camera and a browser with the Flash plugin. The service runs entirely in the browser, and there is an app for mobile devices.
