Description: Manufacture hardware device for wireless video-broadcasting. Develop web-based service and build website

Idea was to create low-cost and very portable broadcasting device, with support of video sources from multiple types of proprietary sockets. Currently it supports sources from professional HD-SDI, to user-friendly HDMI, and sends it over the air (optionally cable) to any RTMP-server;
Must have feature - minimum operating time 8 hours, with battery hot-swap;
Optionally models with "Director's display" is available. Display lets to preview image before and while broadcasting;
Software part is also unique - auto quality-adaptation to channel width and simultaneous broadcasting via multiple channels, like 3G + LTE, LTE + Sat or array of 3G modems.

Case:
- Made of aluminum, sleek and light-weight;
- 300mm tall, 290mm wide and 40mm deep;
- Display is 255mm (10");
- On board: HD/SD-SDI (input), HDMI (input), Ethernet (RJ-45), 2x RF (RP-SMA (female) antenna connectors);
Communications
- Support for external dual-band antenna to be used with LTE (2.5-2.7 GHz), GSM (900 Hz) or 3G (2 GHz)
- Optional support of Wi-Fi (b/g) and Fast Ethernet (100BASE-T | RJ-45) is avaliable;
Power Supply: with manual hot-swap support
- Primary battery (DC) (12V);
- Backup battery (DC) (12V);
- Male C13/C14 coupler (220V, 50 Hz).

iLive service is RTMP-bridge;
RTMP-bridge creates direct connection between both broadcasting device and receiving point (ex.: [iLive] -> [RTMP-bridge] -> [Studio]). Entry points is geographically decentralized, so we can offer closest publishing server to you, to eliminate latency and provide real-time picture;
Additionally we offer video re-streaming to multiple RTMP-based servers and services like YouTube Live or UStream and etc. with or without authentication.
