Abstract: Abstract When Douglas Engelbart presented “the Mother of All Demos” in 1968, neither the Internet nor its predecessor ARPANET yet existed. How would he make it possible to show what his colleagues were doing on their computers at Menlo Park while presenting inside an auditorium in San Francisco? It sounded like science fiction. Nothing stopped Engelbart from using the best available technologies to show his team’s research work, though. He used dedicated microwave links to share the videos of what his colleagues were doing a few kilometers away and thus demonstrated his remote collaboration tools. This successful event occurred in 1968, long before we heard of videoconferencing.
