Abstract
The technical aspects of videoconferencing are described, with emphasis on the H 320 standards for the transmission of compressed video and audio streams. The implications of multilingual videoconferencing for sound and image quality in conference interpreting and the related cognitive, medical and psychological problems are then discussed. The suitability of this technique for various kinds of meetings and its cost effectiveness are also touched upon.
