What’s the difference between Video Conferencing and Telepresence?

Telepresence picks up where video conferencing left off. Telepresence IS real time, full-high-definition, immersible sound and vision. Telepresence IS most importantly: the feeling of being “there” when you’re “here”. Telepresence is lifelike, video conferencing is not. Telepresence is that hi-line Mercedes AMG, video conferencing is a Ford Escort - Period.

Why Telepresence now?

Video conferencing has been around a while now but has always lacked the feeling we spoke about above. Jumpy computer screens, broken audio and poor lighting add to the impersonal touches of video conferencing (ie slow motion camcorder on top of your computer monitor). Finally, technology, bandwidth, vision and sound have all converged on video conferencing to create the telepresence experience. It’s about time! Crystal clear surround sound and real-time full-high-definition visual effects enhance the feeling of being there – thus telepresence. That nervous twitch, roll of the eyes, sniffle, tap of the foot – things you see when you’re present and sitting across a conference room table – things you don’t see or feel from video conferencing, but do with telepresence.

Today, what “real” uses are there for Telepresence?

There is no short answer even possible here. We’ll name a few, more like we’ll put your imagination to work. Imagine a single specialist doctor in Canada treating patients in Haiti via telepresence. Robots in space doing the actual work while the telepresence operator dons his telepresence helmet and gloves at his workstation in Texas. Meeting your Russian company vice president while you’re in the executive telepresence room at the office in Denver. Just a few…

What are “real” savings of Telepresence?

Your imagination still working on the last answer? Don’t let up yet! What carbon footprint? Don’t need that airplane ticket to go check on your staff in Russia now do you? What lost life in the Iraqi war? Unmanned drones and soldiers via telepresence. Military and combat cost savings? Immeasurable. Less travel costs, airline frustration, fuel, lost time, carbon emissions, etc. Those are tangible, real savings to name just a very limited few.

You starting to see what telepresence can do that video conferencing can’t? We hope you see what we’re seeing! Telepresence – its time has arrived!

(PRWEB) April 9, 2008 -- HaiVision Systems Inc. (Montreal, Canada), the world's leading vendor of performance H.264 network video codecs, announces collaboration with Glowpoint (OTC: GLOW), a premiere broadcast-quality, IP-based managed video service provider, to deliver telepresence and interactive broadcast network video services. Telepresence integrators and broadcasters can now source HD network video solution packages validated specifically for the performance and operational characteristics necessary within these segments such as video quality, video latency, system manageability, reliability, and on-line customer service.

HaiVision's MAKO-HD provides the fastest H.264 HD encoding available with 70 milliseconds of latency, supporting up to 1080p resolution. Glowpoint's global "video-centric" network provides the quality of service necessary for high performance video in terms of jitter and network latency combined. Glowpoint combines network quality with "white glove" telepresence and broadcast service management from their Video Network Operations Center (VNOC).

Within the audio-visual services community, integrators experienced in room and theater design have been seeking the perfect marriage of codec and network offering. By incorporating Glowpoint's VNOC service and ultra-clean, video-centric IP network with HaiVision telepresence codecs, integrators can assure their client's world class network video performance delivered into their client's custom environments.

Broadcasters are as well being driven towards IP-based, telepresence style technology for interactive content contributions. Just as latency dramatically reduces the effectiveness of a conference, it deprives broadcasters of compelling discussions during remote interviews and the effects can even tarnish the image of the participants. Concurrently, broadcasters are looking to reduce costs by moving from expensive satellite and fixed line architectures to IP-based connectivity. The validated HaiVision Glowpoint solution delivers industry standard high performance HD technology over low cost IP networks with the full assurances of a managed service.

The new MAKO-HD codec for the hai1000 delivers full frame rate high definition (HD) video with an unprecedented 70 milliseconds of end to end latency. For complete information on the MAKO-HD and hai1000 products, please visit HaiVision's download center at http://www.haivision.com/account/downloads/.

Glowpoint will be demonstrating HaiVision's MAKO-HD in live conferences on the show floor at NAB, booth SU13510. Plan to see HaiVision and the MAKO-HD at NAB booth SU11626.
