[AG-TECH] Equiptment ideas?

[Matthew Leszczenski]

Hello all,

                One of my current projects is a public AG kiosk-like setup,
in which people will be able to walk up to the node, choose a stream and
start to talk directly with that stream. The area is about a 12' X 12'
square area, with drop-tile ceiling, it will consist of 1x HD camera, 1x DV
camera, 2x 52" HD LCD TV's, 1x high quality microphone, some sort of
directional speakers, and an echo cancellation system.  It seems that I
would only need one microphone input for this project. However I have mostly
worked with the ClearOne XAP400, which is a dual line-in echo cancellation
system, and the XAP does not seem to come in a single line-in version. Is
there some other echo cancellation unit that people would suggest for a
setup like this? Or have I missed a single line-in version of the XAP? Also
any other suggestions for the node would be nice to hear, in case others
have ideas that haven't been thought of, or others are thinking of building
a node such like this.

 

 

As always all help is appreciated!
