From the Courtroom to the Jail: Liberty Virtual Courtroom Runs Anywhere with Cynap

When two AV innovators team up, the result isn’t just a better hybrid courtroom—it’s a smarter, simpler way to bring justice to every corner of the system.

A New Era of Justice

Across the country, courts are working to modernize. Remote hearings, hybrid appearances, and digital evidence presentation are now the norm. Yet many courts are still using legacy systems never intended to support this level of complexity.

We’ve seen it firsthand: external codecs, dedicated PCs, and patched-together AV switching just to host a virtual hearing. These setups are difficult to manage, expensive to support, and prone to failure when it matters most.

That’s why we partnered with WolfVision—to deliver something better.

A true two-way integration: Liberty Court Recorder (LCR) captures WolfVision streams natively, while Cynap Pro and Cynap Core Pro run Liberty Virtual Courtroom (LVC) via WebRTC.

Why Cynap? A True All-in-One Courtroom Hub

The Cynap Pro isn’t just a presentation tool. It’s a multimedia hub capable of handling video routing, USB mic and camera integration, WebRTC conferencing, content sharing, and evidence annotation—all in one unit.

By running Liberty Virtual Courtroom (LVC) directly on the Cynap Pro, we’ve eliminated the need for dedicated PCs or external conferencing software and hardware. Courts can consolidate their AV systems, simplify installation, and reduce support burdens—especially in high-traffic rooms where consistency and uptime are critical.

From an integrator’s perspective, this streamlined setup is a game-changer. It reduces the number of devices, simplifies installation, and eliminates the need for managing multiple software environments. For court IT teams, it means less downtime, easier maintenance, and consistent performance across every hearing.

How does this play out?

One Hearing, Two Screens, Zero Disruption

Hybrid courtrooms often require a delicate balance—remote participants need to be seen clearly, while local attorneys must present evidence without interrupting the flow of proceedings.

With Composer Mode, the Cynap Pro supports dual displays with up to two sources per screen. This allows courts to simultaneously show:

  • Display 1: Remote participants (interpreters, attorneys, witnesses)

  • Display 2: Local camera feeds, annotated documents, or digital evidence

The ability to keep participants and evidence side-by-side—without toggling inputs or juggling sources—makes for smoother, more effective hearings. It also enhances accessibility for all participants, especially in multilingual or high-stakes proceedings.

How LVC Works with Cynap in Action

Picture this: a judge starts a hearing. A remote witness appears on Display 1 through Liberty Virtual Courtroom. On Display 2, an attorney presents annotated evidence using a visualizer.

Cynap Pro manages everything—from video routing to the WebRTC conference itself. No extra computers. No codecs. No switching back and forth.

Microphones and speakers are seamlessly configured using in-room devices and USB peripherals connected via the Cynap interface. The entire proceeding is recorded automatically through LVC, with multi-channel audio capture that isolates each speaker—a critical feature for post-hearing transcription and review.

The process is consistent, scalable, and built to work across one room or an entire courthouse.

But what about remote hearings from jails or detention centers?

Beyond the Courtroom: Jail Hearings with Cynap Core Pro

Remote appearances don’t just happen in courtrooms. With the Cynap Core Pro, the Liberty-WolfVision integration brings the same virtual courtroom experience to jails, detention centers, and satellite facilities—with a smaller footprint.

A typical remote setup requires only:

  • A Cynap Core Pro

  • A USB-connected mic and camera

  • A monitor

  • And a pre-configured LVC URL

This compact solution replaces traditional codecs, AV switchers, and standalone PCs with a single unit—without compromising on security or reliability.

A Strategic Partnership for Courts

This isn’t just a product integration—it’s a shared vision.

At Liberty, we’ve spent decades developing audio and video solutions specifically for courtroom use. Our Liberty Virtual Courtroom platform is designed to meet the legal system’s unique standards for recording integrity, participant privacy, and workflow flexibility.

One of LVC’s most valuable features is its ability to record every participant on a separate audio channel. In legal proceedings, that kind of clarity and isolation isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity.

WolfVision shares that commitment. Their hardware is trusted in mission-critical environments—from universities to legislative chambers—and now, increasingly, in courtrooms like yours.

Together, we’re delivering a solution that’s scalable, secure, and purpose-built for modern justice workflows—whether in a large courtroom or a remote holding facility.
