An Active Viewing System to Utilize Streaming Video for Education

Abstract

This paper proposes an alternative model to access streaming video contents available on the Internet. Currently many streaming videos are delivered in one way, in spite of the bi-directional network connection. To have more interactivity in use of them, we have implemented a system for viewers to control the original unedited video sources with active viewing interfaces. The system allows video source owners to share video sources without editing, and viewers to reorganize them while receiving from the streaming server. With the implemented system, viewers can utilize the video sources in more effective way for educational purposes
