ISDN Picture phone
Televerkets Forskningsinstitutt
A student project performed in1989. The students were engaged to design the picture phone for the future for The Norwegian Telephone Company, Televerket (now Telenor). Their Research Laboratory had taken a lead in image processing via the upcoming ISDN network. A technology that a few years later was commercialized by successful Tandberg. While they focused on the business market, we looked into the private market.
