DIGITAL VIDEO CAMCORDER WITH WIRELESS TRANSMISSION BUILT-IN

摘要

In general, a digital video player and recorder (camcorder) is described that may include a Wi-Fi module, a soft phone client application, and an antenna. An antenna connects to the Wi-Fi module to transmit and receive a compressed digital video signal wirelessly as radio frequency waves at transmitted frequencies and data rates established by the Wi-Fi standard to and from a Wi-Fi enabled router base station and then to a server of an instant messaging communication system that uses the Internet and then to another computing device capable of displaying video files. The soft phone client application resident on the digital video player and recorder has code to facilitate making phone calls over the internet by breaking audio and video data into packets, formatting the packets into compliance with the instant messaging communication system, encoding the server's IP address into the packets, and specially marking the packets that contain video data.
