New Canadian broadcast app means iPhone, iPad users can be instant news reporters


WATERLOO – Dejero is making it easier for broadcasters to transmit live video footage without a news truck or extra equipment.

The broadcast technology company has released the LIVE+ Mobile App which it says enables both traditional and online broadcasters to transmit high quality HD or SD live video from an Apple iPhone 4S or iPad.  By bonding multiple wireless signals, the app aggregates both the WiFi and cellular connections of the device resulting in a higher quality live video transmission with lower latency than a single connection would provide.

Available now for download in Apple’s iTunes Store, the LIVE+ Mobile App can transmit live video using both the front and back cameras of the iPhone or iPad during a single broadcast, enabling a reporter to create a complete breaking news story without the need for a camera operator or extra equipment. 

“The launch of the LIVE+ Mobile App gives broadcasters the ability to maximize content by transforming everyone in the organization into a field reporter using just their iPhone or iPad“, said CTO Bogdan Frusina, in the announcement.  “This technology allows them to be first on a news scene and bring high quality live footage back to their viewers that previously would not have been possible.”
