Balconi strengthens remote connection
Con Michael believes his portable, video conferencing technology can help save lives, and is calling on the state government to do more to help him realise this vision.
Balconi Telecommunications, founded in 1992, produces the Balconi Smart Torch - Global Live which is a world-first ultra-portable 2-way video conferencing tool for global telemedicine coverage.
The entry level Smart Torch uses a disruptive dynamically adjustable operation algorithm, giving the best possible video from a very low bandwidth, allowing affordable connectivity access.
It won two category awards at the 2017 WAITTA Incite awards, four categories at 2017 iAWARDS, and received the 2017 Engineers Australia Award for Most Innovative Engineer.
