CU-SeeMe is an internet video-conferencing client written by students at Cornell University. It was first developed for the Apple Macintosh and later for the Windows platform. The commercial licensing rights were bought by White Pine Software in the 1980s and the product was then released a commercial shrink-wrap product. Unfortunately, White Pine Software ignored the original hobby market of CU-SeeMe users and attempted to compete against hardware assisted video-conferencing companies. They were too early for acceptance as audio/video quality was an issue at the time (excessive latency) and thus the product was only useful to hobbyists. CU-SeeMe's audio came from Maven, an audio only client developed at the University of Illinois. White Pine Software was bought by First Virtual Communications which went bankrupt and was then purchased by RadVision. There is still a small but active community of users who continue to use cu-seeme. Although there had been no releases of software from the various incarnations of White Pine since around 2000, there are freeware alternatives available for both Windows and Macintosh platforms. A search with google will quickly locate the CU-SeeMe reflectors that are still operational.
