One of the nice things about our digital age is that it is easier to record live events so you can watch them later. If you have digital recording capabilities with your TV provider, you may appreciate the ability to record a sporting event or your favorite program and watch it when it’s more convenient for you.
It’s now commonplace for government agencies and conference organizers to videotape their sessions so that people who can’t attend can watch later. For example, College of Medicine Research Professor Hans Van Dongen recently participated in a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) conference on Drowsy Driving in Washington, D.C.
“The speaker line-up was pretty much a who’s who in drowsy driving research and policy, so I felt humbled and excited to be included,” Van Dongen said after the event.
