Telepresence

In todays business environment people and workgroups are dispersed, but the need to meet face-to-face still exists. In fact, more than 60% of communications is non-verbal. With globally dispersed work forces, communications over phone and email miss the nuances, and body language critical to increased comprehension and retention.

The solution: Telepresence

What is Telepresence?

Telepresence is the experience of being present - an immersive video communications experience that allows you to meet with remote participants as if youre sitting in the same room. Telepresence allows people to use technology to meet across distances with the same realism and interaction as an in-person meeting. Users feel as if they are literally across the table from one another. People appear lifesize with excellent picture quality and detail. A telepresence experience makes meeting across distances completely natural, providing absolute ease of use and increased productivity.

Is it complicated?

Telepresence no longer has to be complicated. Traditional approaches to telepresence require fixed product configurations and specific room sizes and layouts making it difficult and costly to deploy beyond select high-end rooms. LifeSize Conference makes telepresence easy to deploy to more conference rooms � enabling more users to benefit from the highly engaging and effective telepresence experience.

Is it expensive?

Until now telepresence suites have been cost prohibitive, limiting their deployment primarily to the executive board room.
