White Pine Takes Over CU-SeeMe

by Dave Murphy
ISSN 1535-3613

Multimedia firm White Pine Software Inc. today agreed to acquire complete ownership of the trademark, source code and all intellectual property rights to the CU-SeeMe and MeetingPoint technologies.

Cornell University, located in Ithaca New York, created the video conferencing technologies in 1993 and White Pine has been licensed to commercially develop them.

"We're committed to growing and nurturing the CU-SeeMe community, and owning our own key technology is a major strategic focus for us as we continue to develop cutting edge conferencing solutions for the business, education and consumer markets," said Killko Caballero, president of White Pine Software.

"As Internet communication has grown, CU-SeeMe has been the icon for Internet video and has developed a very strong and loyal user community," said Richard Cahoon, vice president of Cornell Research Foundation and associate director of the Office of Patents and Technology Marketing for Cornell University.

"The CU-SeeMe technology is an important tool for web-based trainers who are on the cutting edge of instructional delivery. Turning the product over for continued commercial return is critical in the life cycle of software development." said Dave Murphy of ITrain, the International Association of Information Technology Trainers.
