Data Description's MediaDX technology can be used to build interactive,
high-quality training and education courses, or it can be integrated
into an exciting web-delivered training environment. Either way,
MediaDX creates an engaging and effective experience.
Here is a page you might find in a web-delivered course. Each of
the icons launches an activity that plays in the MediaDX Web Viewer
and demonstrates the capabilities of the technology. All these activities
synchronize audio with actions on the screen. Many offer opportunities
for user interaction.
And the MediaDX Authoring environment is designed for the efficient
creation of content. This means that your training course can be
created quickly and cost-effectively.
