TouchStream video and audio streaming appliances combine our renowned live streaming quality and reliability with an intuitive touch-screen interface in a fully self-contained, easy-to-deploy form factor for professional streaming applications.

Your Audience at Your Fingertips
Bringing live video to wider audiences has never been easier.

Ideal for professional media streaming in the field, on a desktop or in a rack, TouchStream appliances offer unparalleled ease-of-use through the most intuitive human interface - touch. Software controls are accessed through a vivid, streamlined touch-screen interface with integrated live video monitoring and VU meters for audio validation, eliminating the need for laptops, keyboards, mice and separate monitors.

TouchStream was developed to overcome the challenges often encountered in live environments - from physical space limitations to minimal setup time. The TouchStream hardware was also designed for quiet operation, allowing it to be used unobtrusively in noise-sensitive environments.

TouchStream appliances are ideal for on-location live streaming of evenst such as concerts and sporting matches; remote news coverage; courtroom proceedings; PEG (public, education and government) applications, corporate communications; worship; and more. Application-targeted models let you choose the right configuration for your format needs, from Adobe Flash (including Dynamic Streaming), Microsoft Silverlight (including IIS Smooth Streaming) and Apple QuickTime (Darwin server) powered web experiences to IPTV set-top boxes and mobile phones (including optional iPhone support with integrated segmenting).

Unparalleled streaming quality
Though easy enough for use by novice operators, TouchStream systems are powerful enough to meet the demanding expectations of experienced streaming media users. TouchStream units feature the same exceptional bandwidth utilization that have made Digital Rapids' StreamZ and StreamZ Live studio encoding and streaming systems the preferred choice of leading studios, broadcast networks and service providers.

This superior quality starts with Digital Rapids' acclaimed advanced video preprocessing capabilities, including advanced de-interlacing with pixel-level motion adaptation, scaling and filtering. Video noise reduction can minimize or even remove the noise in your video caused by issues such as low lighting that are often uncontrollable in on-location environments. Additional features including audio controls, picture controls and graphic overlay let you refine the incoming source and add branding such as a logo to the outgoing stream. Streaming can be started and stopped manually, scheduled,, or triggered by GPI. Streams can also be archived to files on optional storage (even in different formats or resolutions) for later on-demand use. A configurable set of controls can be locked with a password, letting you limit the functions available to basic users to as little as you prefer - even just start and stop.
