More Features

HD Video & High Quality Audio

Our software integrates with the latest IP camera technology. 

Details
Observe in real-time or review recorded high definition video in 1080p resolution. Auto-gaining discrete microphones provide high quality perfectly synchronized audio, great for picking up soft voices.

Searchable Database

All of the videos are stored and managed by a built-in searchable database.

Details
Tag videos with data such as student/patient name for easy lookup and review.

Markers

Tag specific points within a recording either during live observation or during the review process.

Details
These points can have searchable descriptions associated with them and are great for debriefing. These “markers” allow users to easily jump right to that point in the video, similar to chapters in a DVD.

Security & Compliance

With comprehensive user management rights, a detailed audit log and optional encryption our video solution offers some of the most advanced security features in the market.

Details
These built in features can help maintain your compliance standards (HIPAA/HITECH). Our system allows for both full SSL web traffic encryption as well as RTMPS video stream encryption. These security methods are often a compliance requirement in regards to sensitive data.

Custom View

Monitor multiple students from a single view or see a matrix of cameras from a single room in one view.

Details
Multiple cameras may be grouped in several dental practice rooms and synchronized together. Users of the system are able to access up to nine rooms and cameras at the same time. Custom matrix layouts makes it easy to drag and drop cameras in selected views.

Feedback & Assessment

Dental Instructors can provide timestamped comments for review and collaboration for more detailed learning outcomes.

Details
These timestamps can be used to search for specific indexed information or to jump to exact moments in the video. Create a series of quick markers, color-coded to identify common

Case Study

VALT at Southeast Community College Dental Assistant Program

In the dental assisting room in the Health Science building at Southeast Community College, the Dental Assistant Program can have 8 people practicing in their space at one time. All observed or recorded with VALT at once.

Recording Solution for Dental Education

Dentistry is a growing field in the branch of medicine that features a wide range of specialties including orthodontics, endodontics, periodontics, prosthodontics, oral and maxillofacial pathology, and of course general dentistry. Although the dental world contains many offshoots and choices, one common characteristic is the importance of a well-rounded and comprehensive education and training.

As many forms of education technology continue to develop and become more affordable, so do the options and possibilities when it comes to providing new and innovative ways to educate our dentists of tomorrow. One new way dental educators are helping their students is by using video recording and observation.

OSCE for Dental Education

While the most obvious use of a video system for dentistry is education, it has many additional uses as well. For example, OSCEs (Objective Structured Clinical Examinations) generally rely on video observation and recording. First developed to assess the clinical competence of medical students, OSCEs have been used widely as an assessment method for disciplines such as nursing, pre-clinical subjects and dentistry. They help measure the diagnosis, treatment planning, and related clinical judgment skills of licensure candidates.

To properly evaluate a student taking an OSCE, it is important to remain as objective as possible and the best way to do that is to not be forced to evaluate in the heat of the moment or off memory alone.

Studies have shown that real-time evaluation and video reviews tend to produce a significant difference in evaluations and ultimately pass/fail determinations. By utilizing video recording for student examinations, an educator has the best opportunity to remain as objective and impartial as possible and provide a student with the best possible evaluation.

FAQs

Our A/V software solutions are highly adaptable and can easily record various dental education activities and clinical training scenarios. Whether you need to capture individual student performances, group discussions, or patient interactions, the VALT solution can be configured to meet your specific requirements. Our team works closely with dental educators to ensure the system is optimized for their unique needs, from general dentistry to specialized fields like orthodontics, endodontics, or periodontics.

Our VALT system provides several features that enable dental educators to review and evaluate students' recorded performances effectively. The built-in searchable database allows users to tag videos with relevant data, such as student or patient names, for easy lookup and review. Additionally, the "markers" feature enables educators to tag specific points within a recording during live observation or post-session review and associate searchable descriptions with these markers. This functionality facilitates efficient debriefing and targeted feedback, as educators can quickly jump to key moments in the video.

We've created a well-suited system to support Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs) in dental education. VALT enables educators to objectively evaluate students' clinical competence, diagnosis, treatment planning, and related judgment skills by providing a reliable and user-friendly video recording solution. The system's ability to capture high-quality video and audio ensures that educators can thoroughly assess students' performances without relying solely on memory or real-time evaluation, which can be subject to bias. This video-based approach to OSCEs promotes fairness, consistency, and accuracy in evaluating dental students' clinical skills

We have incorporated advanced security features to safeguard sensitive dental education recordings and maintain compliance with HIPAA regulations. The system offers comprehensive user management rights, allowing administrators to control access to video content based on roles and permissions. Additionally, VALT provides optional encryption for web traffic (SSL) and video streams (RTMPS), ensuring that data remains secure during transmission. The system also maintains a detailed audit log, tracking user actions and system events for accountability and compliance.

We designed our system to be intuitive and user-friendly, accommodating dental educators with diverse technical backgrounds. The interface is straightforward and minimizes complexity, allowing users to quickly learn and perform basic observation and recording tasks without extensive training or technical support. The browser-based client eliminates the need for software installations or plug-ins, making it accessible from any device with a web browser. Our experienced team also provides comprehensive training and ongoing support to ensure dental educators can effectively utilize every piece of the system, regardless of their technical expertise.

Our system offers solutions for on-site and remote dental education recording scenarios. For off-site applications, such as recording at a satellite clinic or during community outreach programs, the IVS Beam application allows users to capture sessions using an iPad. The Beam app enables users to record sessions remotely and automatically syncs the video with the VALT server when the user returns to the main facility. This flexibility ensures dental educators can capture valuable learning experiences and student performances, regardless of the location.
