Vidioconferencing is the conduct of a vidioconference (also known as a videoconference or videoteleconference) by a set of telecommunication technologies which allow two or more location to communicate by simultaneous two-way video and audio transmissions. It has also been called 'visual collaboration' and is a type of groupware. Videoconferencing differs from videophone calls in that it's designed to serve a conference or multiple locations rather than individuals.
