V-NET is a system consisting of services and clients for users to connect their computers, smart devices of increasing varieties in anywhere and at anytime. It tries to be device and network agnostic so that devices can be cross connected on the internet over any IP based network, like ethernet, WiFi or 3G/4G/5G mobile ones. All connections are encrypted using method of modern cryptography. It is simple to use, plugin and setup free. Major features of V-NET can be reashed in a few clicks of buttons.

It can be used to exchange data, streaming realtime video/audio between devices and/or other users, text/audio/video chat, manage and control devices locally or remotely, etc.

There are a mixture of ways that a user can use to connect their devices together. One can use a browser or a V-NET desktop client or a V-NET mobile app.

V-NET Desktop

Starts with a list of entries for resources that a user can manage and/or exchange with others "endpoints", including devices and friends, which are just a few clicks away.

File Exchange

Direct exchange existing files, auto transfer of files generated by camera, audio/video recordings devices, etc. to a remote device or people securely without leaving or leaking any data on the "cloud".

Group Chat

Voice (or video) meeting. Collaboration at distance with security and privacy ensured.

Video Call

Interested in a video call? It can be easily done here.

Multicasting

Share realtime views with a few others at distance even with two way voice coordination channel open. The views do not have to come from the camera, it can be a desktop window.

Monitoring

Pre-authorize a few other devices from a monitoring device for on demand remote monitoring. The views do not have to come from the camera, it can be a desktop window.

Managing Files

Local files and file system manager for devices of all sizes and types gives users unified experiences.
