Abstract: A method and system for real-time, low latency, high quality audio conferencing are disclosed. The system allows delivering low latency during peer to peer transmission of high quality compressed audio streams between remotely located participants. The system provides transmission of audio as well as any audio data with low latency and high quality. The system solves latency problems to enable participants in different locations to stay in synchronization while performing live over the Internet in multiple locations.

Abstract: Described are the architecture of such a system, algorithms for time synchronization during a multiway conferencing session, methods to fight with network imperfections such as jitter to improve synchronization, methods of introducing buffering delays to create handicaps for players with faster connections, methods which help players with synchronization (such as a synchronized metronome during a music conferencing session), methods for synchronized recording and live delivery of synchronized data to the audience watching the distributed interaction live over the Internet.

Abstract: The present invention is related to a luminescent material generated by polymerization of a pyrromethene complex by glow discharge. The polymer material of the present invention exhibits semi-conductive properties and has a luminescence maximum in a spectrum region in the range of about 540 nm to about 585 nm with a half-width of the luminescence band in the range of about 55 nm to about 75 nm, a quantum yield of photoluminescence in the range of about 0.6 to about 0.8, and an electric conductivity at a temperature of about 20° C. in the range of about 1×10?10 S/cm to about 5×10?10 S/cm. The resultant polymer layer has a thickness in the range of about 0.01 ?m to about 10 ?m on a substrate placed between or on any of the electrodes. The starting pyrromethene complex may be a 1,3,5,7,8-pentamethyl-2,6-diethylpyrromethene difluoroborate complex (pyrromethene 567).
