Synapse Adds Low-Cost Voisus Option
ASTi now offers a new low-cost Synapse product option: the Voisus Server. Voisus Server includes the same full-featured ASTi Radio environment as existing Synapse products, but it eliminates the need for dedicated audio distribution and control panel hardware. Instead, users download and install Voisus client software onto their LinuxTM or Windows® PCs, and leverage existing computers and network infrastructure for their Synapse solution. Low-profile, software-based Voisus clients provide user-friendly radio and intercom GUIs and a USB audio interface. The product also features a Voisus-VBS2 plugin which integrates the Voisus thin client into the Virtual Battlespace 2 (VBS2) military training game.
