Camtasia Relay Lecture Capture System in Beta

At the Campus Technology 2008 conference being held this week in Boston, TechSmith launched a limited beta of its new lecture capture system, Camtasia Relay. The beta is open to the first 100 institutions that sign up for it.

"As a very early Camtasia Relay beta tester, we have experienced a great enhancement in the proficiency of course content delivery capabilities and in-turn expect a higher degree of satisfaction from both students and faculty," said John Morris, director of academic technology innovation at Drexel University, in a statement released this week. "We're excited that TechSmith is leveraging its many years of serving the education market by offering their new lecture capture solution at a very competitive and scalable price point so we can continue to offer our students an outstanding education."

Camtasia Relay is scheduled for general availability this fall. Further information about Camtasia Relay can be found here. for those attending the Campus Technology conference, signups for the beta are available at TechSmith's booth, #551.
