Helping People Heal Through Remote Participation As our lives become more demanding, and the distances between loved ones grow, it is not always possible to attend a funeral due to poor health, distance, cost, or work. However, webcasting services overcome these barriers by providing a live-streaming platform so family and friends can take part in the memorial service. Some funeral directors suggest that sharing condolences with family members can be more important for the grieving process than witnessing the actual service. A discreet video camera can be set up to film a funeral, which is then broadcast online on a password-protected site for the benefit of mourners who couldn't attend. An Internet live-streaming specialists can broadcast (webcast) the funeral to any Internet-connected device (e.g., PC, iPad, Android tablet or smartphone) so the memorial service can be viewed live from the comfort of the remote viewer’s home. |
