Video conferencing functionality can be incorporated into the VidyoDesktop application with a designated Plug-in API.  Finally, the VidyoRoom Remote Control API enables integration of third-party control and automation systems to round out fully-featured, flexible communications applications.

The list of Vidyo-Enabled demonstrations at ATA is considerably lengthy and includes offerings from AMD Global Telemedicine Inc., American Well, GetWellNetwork, Great Lakes NeuroTech, Kubi by Revolve Robotics, MediSprout, Mercy, Metro, Samsung, SnapMD, West Corporation and Yorktel.
