PREFACE When I founded the Human Productivity Lab in 2005, there were probably less than 10,000 people on the planet who had even heard the word telepresence. You'd have been hard pressed to find more than 50 multi-screen telepresence environments on the entire planet. The Human Productivity Lab ran the only website dedicated to following the emerging industry, and it received less than 50 visitors a day.
When I published Telepresence, Effective Visual Collaboration
and the Future of Global Business at the Speed of Light in 2006, less than half a dozen companies delivered visual collaboration solutions that addressed the human factors of participants. In June of that year, John Chambers declared that telepresence would be a billion dollar business for Cisco alone. Traffic to our website surged, and Telepresence, Effective
Visual Collaboration, and the Future of Global Business at the
Speed of Light went on to become the most widely read publication on the topic.
In 2007 we helped put on the first major telepresence conference at the University of San Diego, bringing multiple telepresence systems and hundreds of attendees from around the world under one roof. In 2008 (when over 24 airlines went bankrupt, ceased operations or merged with other carriers), we launched the Telepresence Options website, which has become the Internet's number one destination covering telepresence and visual collaboration, drawing over 25,000 unique visitors a month from over 165 countries.
In 2009 we wrote the Inter-Company Telepresence and
Videoconferencing Handbook, sharing sophisticated strategies for overcoming the technical, operational and cultural hurdles of enabling an inter-company telepresence program. We also conducted the first comprehensive research into emerging telepresence exchange providers with The Telepresence and
Videoconferencing Exchange Provider Review.
In 2010 we expanded our consulting practice to Europe and launched the Telepresence and Videoconferencing Catalog,
which has grown into the Internet's most comprehensive resource for discovering and evaluating telepresence and visual collaboration solutions.
Now, in 2011, we present The Telepresence Options 2011
Yearbook, a publication I started in 2008 but had to put down when I suffered a tragedy in my personal life. I've been struggling ever since to find the time to complete the work. Around our office the project has come to be called Chinese
Democracy after Guns & Roses' 2nd album that took over a decade to complete while the group, their fans, and the recording industry wondered which would come first: The 2nd album or Chinese Democracy.
This publication is the most comprehensive survey of the telepresence and visual collaboration landscape ever, with profiles of 22 companies, detailed Solution Snapshots on 37 telepresence and visual collaboration solutions, and shorter catalog entries on another 45.
As an outgrowth of this effort, we've decided to launch Telepresence Options Magazine to more regularly cover a communications revolution that is moving at-quite literally-the speed of light. Readers of the hard copy have no doubt discovered the magazine printed upside down and backwards in this publication. This inaugural issue focuses on "End-points and Environments." Our next issue will cover "Infrastructure, Managed Services, Inter-Networking, Security, and Exchange."
From everyone at the Human Productivity Lab and Telepresence
Options, thank you for sharing an interest in telepresence and visual collaboration, a technology shaping up to be the most exciting new industry of the decade.
Warmly,
Howard S. Lichtman, Publisher- Telepresence Options

TELEPRESENCE OPTIONS | Telepresence and Visual Collaboration Trends 2011 Telepresence and Visual Collaboration Trends 2011 | TELEPRESENCE OPTIONS
By Howard S. LichtmanPresident – Human Productivity Lab
“The only thing constant in life is change” - François de la Rochefoucauld
For decades videoconferencing was essen-tially a stagnant technology. It enjoyed incre-mental improvements in quality and reliability, but except for small-scale experiments like Con-fravision (a telepresence environment circa 1970 built around 20-inch black and white television sets, broadcast cameras and ashtrays for every participant), it didn’t change much. The format of camera, codec, and one or two screens re-mained the standard for decades.
In the past five years the change has been ex-plosive. Multi-screen, multi-codec group sys-tems have proliferated exponentially. From less than 50 rooms in 2005 to an estimated 11,600 in 2012. And the innovation just keeps com-ing: video walls, 100-inch screens, beam split-ters, and transparent foils for life-size, on-stage telepresence experiences. Once limited to dedicated video appliances, video codecs now run on PCs, laptops, smartphones, and tablets as downloadable software that is starting to be tightly integrated under the unified communi-cation umbrella with voice telephony, presence, and data collaboration. Telepresence robotics has brought mobility to remote video (and a new way to fetch scones from the coffee shop as well). Corporate and carrier video networks that once only connected the headquarters with branch offices now use telepresence and video exchang-es to link partners, vendors and customers. As we move firmly into 2011, here’s a look at some of the trends shaping telepresence and vi-sual collaboration.
The Growing Utility of Visual Collaboration
The biggest and most important trend in tele-presence and visual collaboration is the grow-ing utility of video. Instantaneous, high-quality
TELEPRESENCE AND VISUAL COLLABORATION TRENDS 2011
video connections have multiplied what you can do and who you can reach with a visual collabo-ration endpoint. Companies, schools, govern-ments and people are able to connect with each other like never before.
Let’s take a look at some of the specifics that are driving universal connectivity:
Interoperability of telepresence and videoconferencing systems
The following factors are driving the growing interoperability of video systems.• Merger and Acquisition: Cisco’s acquisi-
tion of TANDBERG had a multi-faceted impact on interoperability: • It brought together two of the largest
players in visual collaboration who de-veloped a shared interest in connect-ing their existing systems and legacy customers.
• The merger prompted the European Union to mandate opening interop-erability under the Telepresence In-teroperability Protocol. The EU even appointed a trustee to ensure compli-ance.
• It freed up former partner RADVI-SION to scramble for new business trading on one of its strongest fea-tures: The compatibility with Cisco developed during their partnership.
• Standards Bodies – The founding of the Unified Communications Interoperabil-ity Forum brought together some of the industry’s largest players to focus on in-teroperability while the IMTC continues its important work of testing and certifying endpoints.
• Customers – I have yet to meet one yet who doesn’t want interoperability and isn’t ticked when he or she doesn’t get it.
• Software based codecs – Interoperability in the future will be the instantaneous down-load of the codec and data collaboration software of your choice.
Effective Visual Collaboration
We use the phrase “Effective Visual Collabora-tion” to denote a more sophisticated and natu-ral way of working with data between remote locations. We believe this will be the next major evolution of telepresence group system environ-ments as the incremental cost of the improved capabilities can be absorbed into the spend on the gear. We believe the ROI will come from a number of areas:
• Capturing and immediately digitizing the creative process through the integration of tools like interactive whiteboards, table computing and digital flipcharts. Brain-storming, hand-generated graphics and annotation can be more seamlessly inte-grated into collaborative sessions where it is immediately digitized into a digital work-flow.
• Being able to more share information be-tween remote locations visually improves comprehension for participants, especially visual learners.
A number of effective visual collaboration tools have already come into the telepresence market mostly as optional add-ons. More and more of these tools will become standard and seamlessly integrated into the environments and workflow.
Effective Visual Collaboration - A Teliris mockup of a future version of their existing InterACT table computing platform where documents and video can accessed from the network, shared from participant to partici-pant globally by “pushing” them across the table, while network intelligence provides au-tomatic translation based on the language of the destination location.
Telepresence and Visual Collaboration Trends 2011 | TELEPRESENCE OPTIONS
Interconnectivity of Networks
To keep the participant immersed, telepresence needs flawless video. This requires private QoS networks that guarantee latency, packet loss and jitter. For a long time networks functioned like private islands of IP, with different QoS mecha-nisms and IP address plans. Over the last few years these islands have become archipelagos. By launching telepresence and video exchanges that connect different enterprise and carrier networks, a dozen different carriers and man-aged service providers have allowed video to flow freely between partners, vendors, and cus-tomers. These exchanges pop up at such major telecom hubs and meet-me facilities as Telx and IP-V Gateways at 60 Hudson in New York and Glowpoint plugged into the Equinix Ethernet Exchange.
Even more exciting, these telepresence and vid-eoconferencing exchanges are beginning to con-nect to each other, exponentially increasing the number of potential connections. Some of the exchanges include Teliris and Iformata; AT&T and BT; Telmex and AT&T; Glowpoint and Tata; Tata and BT; Tata and Telefonica and BCS and Iformata to name but a few.
Video Network Intelligence
Video Network Intelligence is a term I am us-ing to refer to the ability of a network to under-stand/transcode/transcribe/classify/metatag/catalog/secure/manage/distribute and other-wise make video content from any source more findable, accessible and usable in enterprise and educational environments. Sources may include telepresence and visual collaboration environ-ments, flip cameras, traditional videography, broadcast/narrowcast capture and more.
Cisco has been at the forefront of this idea with products that can take a live video stream, digi-tize it, transcribe the audio to text on the fly, add the appropriate lower thirds with a predefined logo and/or titles, meta-tag the video with key concepts mentioned in the audio, and then transcode the video for streaming delivery to
multiple platforms ranging from Windows Me-dia to the iPad.
The company has also developed Show and Share, best described as “Secure YouTube for the Enterprise with the ability to store and embed video content yet password protect to meet regulatory requirements as well. The ap-plication lets users can search a piece of video content for a specific soundbite by keyword and immediately view the section where it was dis-cussed among other capabilities.
Cisco Pulse, another offering, scans content on a network to determine who the experts are in a particular topic and enable instant collabora-tion. The application can automatically notify an employee about new content matching his or her job or interests.
B2C Telepresence — Retail and Call Cen-ter Applications
The leading wave of Business-to-Consumer Telepresence and Video is hitting the shore and arriving in two flavors.
Retail: In-store retail telepresence kiosks and sit-down consultations with subject matter ex-perts.
The problem here is that making specialized knowledge available in dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of retail locations, bank branch-es, insurance offices, or doctor’s offices comes with a price and the subject matter expert’s spe-cialized knowledge may only be used a couple of times a day. One solution that is developing is concentrating subject matter experts in video call centers where they can support multiple retail locations yet still provide a personalized
experience through a video kiosk or sit down consultative experience. AT&T has recently trialed high definition video kiosks in its retail locations and Bank of America has trialed using video to make financial advisors available in its branch locations are two high profile examples. We believe the technology to evolve in a variety of ways:• Better Front Ends – Companies like
DVE and TelePresence Tech offer beam-splitter display technology where remote agents seam to float in mid-air can double as an augmented reality display to show-case
• Better Back Ends – Companies like Vyopta are developing back-end systems for retail video workflow. The systems pro-vide the video equivalent of a PBX hunt group where calls can be routed to a pool of available agents with the ability to trans-fer to other subject matter experts and in-tegrate with CRM software. The software can also leverage the capabilities of the dis-play to play video content for a prospect or digital signage.
• Shared Infrastructure – It doesn’t make sense for 15 different manufactures to each have their own video kiosk in every Best Buy, but for each of them to share the costs of a video kiosk program probably does. We expect a shared model with 1-2 kiosks capable of reaching multiple vendors to win out.
Home Telepresence: As more and more con-sumers adopt high-quality video-calling capabil-ities through televisions, PCs, laptops, and tab-lets, expect more and more businesses to address the market. You’ll initially see video call centers deployed to reach more affluent households for high-ticket items where perceived trust is a fac-tor and the high cost of the product or service justifies the expense of setting up a call center. The early adopters will likely include insurance, real estate, private client wealth management, personal electronics and high-end retail.
Trends: Pro-sumer Gear, Home/Office Stu-dios, Home Theatre IntegrationDrivers: Integration of cameras/codecs into TVs/Set top boxes, video culture, novelty mar-keting and brand differentiation
The Teliris InterACT flipchart provides the digi-tal functionality of a traditional flipchart with the ability to post and annotate on virtual pages “stuck” to the wall in every connected location.

Community of Interest Networks (CoINs)Telepresence CoINs which join disparate orga-nizations under common interests are forming. One example is ConnectFN (From the NetRoad-show team) which has launched a telepresence financial Community of Interest Network in Q2 that will connect companies with institutional investors, mutual funds and leading investment banks to improve the Investor Relations pro-cess. Right now it has been estimated that the average public company CFO spends 25%+ of their time on deal and/or non-deal roadshows and other IR activities. Reduce their personal burden in addition to all the other benefits that telepresence offers and we think more will buy... Expect to see more and more telepresence ap-plications like this that will drive adoption.
Next Generation Codecs enable video over the Internet – The Rise of SVC
For the past 10 years H.264/MPEG 4 AVC has been the dominant standard in the telepresence and videoconferencing universe. That domi-nance has been slipping over the past three years as a previously unknown company called Lay-ered Media emerged from stealth mode. Led by RADVISION veteran Ofer Shapiro, the com-pany changed its name to Vidyo and brought a hitherto unknown annex called Scaled Video Coding (SVC) to the party. SVC splits a high-definition video stream into multiple streams that perform better over best-effort networks like the Internet. When the video stream runs into congestion, the codec can drop one or more “layers,” which might scale back resolution or frame rate but will otherwise maintain fluid video and, in the process, the ongoing sense of immersion.
SVC uses 10 to 15 percent more bandwidth than H.264 AVC, but its stability and quality over best effort networks (like the Internet itself) more than compensates for the increased over-head. In fact, the cost savings are substantial be-cause you can now run quality intra-company video over lower priority network connections. You can even use best-effort Internet connec-tions (especially if all your intra-company sites are on the same network provider) and accept-able inter-company video (Some restrictions ap-ply!)
The Coming Proliferation of Video Net-work Operations Centers (VNOC)
A Video Network Operations Center is a dedi-cated team that monitors and manages telep-resence and videoconferencing calls for a given company or many companies as an outsourced managed service provider. A VNOC handles all aspects of reliable video operations for a com-pany: first line support for end-users having trouble, room reservations, equipment, network, exchange troubleshooting, and security proce-dures for opening up inter-company connec-tions with partners.
The cost and complexities of managing video network infrastructure has fueled the growth of managed VNOC providers over the past decade. Outsourcing seems like the only viable option when faced with multi-screen, multi-codec environments; new hardware vendors; inter-com-pany exchange; inter-operability issues; and developing standards. Many security-conscious enter-prises have been torn. They want the capabilities that telepresence and visual collaboration offers, but they’re reluctant to give up control over key communica-tions infrastructure. The cost, complexity and technology risk of building their own VNOC capabilities have kept them and many systems integrators and re-sellers out of the game.
We see a number of converging trends that are bringing the cost, complexity and technology risk of building and operating a VNOC down. This will lead more companies, systems integrators, network carriers and man-aged service providers to get into the VNOC business. 1. Standards, consolidation and inter-op-erability reduce complexity — The indus-try made some of the complexity go away when Cisco acquired TANDBERG, marrying two competing technology platforms. Additionally, interoperability is improving through develop-ing and existing standards bodies. 2. Big deployments and inter-company business — In the early days of telepresence, companies were sticking their toes in the water with five to ten systems. Now the success of the early adopters, the obvious ROI, the growing utility of inter-company business and the ap-proaching wave of business-to-consumer video has led to jack-knives and cannon balls. As com-panies begin to deploy dozens and hundreds of systems, the growing cost of ongoing managed services will lead many to build their own capa-bilities.
3. VNOC Automation — Part of the reason telepresence and video networks are so hard to manage is because of the specialized software toolsets that handle reservations, monitor the health of end points, frame multi-site meetings, and give detailed reports. This is the secret sauce of the VNOC managed service providers, and it’s starting to appear on the shelf.
Iformata Communications, the first telepres-ence VNOC provider on the planet, manages hundreds of systems in 22 countries and private labels their services for some of the best-known names in telecommunications. The company
recently began offering their software toolkit: VNOC Symphony, in a package that includes all the software and hardware required to build
and manage a VNOC at an estimated one third the cost of starting from scratch without the technology risk. We think others will ulti-mately follow their lead and we see VNOCs (enterprise, carrier, and MSP) growing from the low hundreds to the thousands in the coming years.
Unified Communica-tionsUnified Communications (UC) has become a catch-all term for a variety of tech-nologies improving business communications. Telepres-ence and visual collabora-tion are being integrated into UC offerings so it is
important to understand how this intergration is coming about and what it will look like in the coming years. We believe there are a number of key technologies that make up a UC capability:
Presence: The ability to understand when a colleague is “on-line” and available for a con-versation, whether that conversation takes place using instant messaging, voice, video, or telep-resence.
Data Collaboration: The ability to immedi-ately escalate an IM or voice call into a visual collaboration session. This session can connect employees working at desktops, laptops, tablets, or smart phones and let them do both video and data collaboration.
Single Number Reach: The ability to be reached using a single number, whether that contact is a landline, mobile or hoteling location and whether the communication ultimately in-cludes voice, video and/or data.
Ever since the inception of the Human Pro-ductivity Lab I have believed there are two key technologies to dramatically improving organi-zational productivity: Telepresence and Unified Communications. Telepresence for the reasons discussed in this publication and unified com-munications for a similar ability to both improve and accelerate business communications in an organization. On the video side there are big returns by bringing more and better informa-tion through body language and nonverbal cues. Data collaboration offers a similar return with the ability to improve comprehension and reten-tion especially for the 65 percent of the popula-tion who are visual learners. Drivers: Customer demand, employee prefer-ence, emerging standards bodies like the UCIF, productivity improvements

Iformata is also the provider of choice for global enterprise firms, equipment manufacturers, and top-tier carriers for cloud based managed service offerings. With a customer base touching every continent, Iformata’s wide range of managed service options give customers an unparalleled range of service models to support their ever changing video management needs. With U.S. based offices in Ohio and Virginia and international offices in Mumbai and Bangalore, India along with Stavanger, Norway, Iformata is the industry’s longest-serving provider of managed services and video network operations. Through international peering relationships with major providers and other VNOC suppliers, Iformata’s Telepresence Exchange® is a leading video communi-cations network connecting global Fortune 500 firms within a highly managed architecture.
Iformata’s VNOC Symphony® platform consists of customer facing tools, VNOC facing tools, and back-office systems. Collectively these systems work together as a multitenant platform providing immedi-ate and automated services for desktop, group, and immersive telepresence systems. Complex call flow logic may be modified at any time and applied to individual systems or groups of systems based on administrator changes to a rules engine. The VNOC Symphony platform removes human involvement in video meeting choreography and call management. With more than 450 patent claims across multiple patents, the product portfolio and platform performs every aspect of managing an enterprises fleet of video systems, including call setup, intelligent framing, automated monitoring, event correlation, and call tear down – even for disparate immersive telepres-ence systems.
Today people use many diverse tools to manage their schedules: Outlook, Lotus, PDAs, etc. These tools provide a simple window into the Symphony platform, making it immediate and easy to use today’s familiar technology to launch impromptu or scheduled audio and video meetings, including Microsoft Outlook, Lotus Notes, Apple’s iPhone and iPod, web interfaces, Google’s Android, Apple’s iPad, IVR interfaces and others. For example, consider the user that schedules a meeting using Microsoft Outlook; based on the start time, VNOC Symphony selects the optimal video bridge, dials each endpoint, adds an audio dial-in if applicable, framing each endpoint. Next, another user
may attend the same conference, and if permissions allow, remove a city and add two more – while each site reframes seamlessly. With no VNOC operators involved, all of these requests are driven by users employing their tool of choice, allowing back-office systems to manage the complex operations needed to seamlessly reflect changing user requirements. The VNOC Symphony platform is the world’s leading enterprise management system for video and telepresence deployments. VNOC Symphony — Corporate Video Logisitics Simplified.
Iformata’s Video Network Operations Center, or VNOC — provides organizations with a wide range of managed service support models.

The result is a VNOC in a Box® – a VNOC Symphony solution.
Service providers and enterprises can now utilize the VNOC Symphony Enterprise SP solution to automate the management of telepresence and video endpoints.
The processes and technologies necessary to manage a video infrastructure, can be costly and cumbersome, causing you to focus on areas outside of your core competency. As the longest-standing telepresence managed services provider, we've had ample time to learn what works, how it works, and what works best. At Iformata, telepresence and video conferencing is not only what we do, but all we do. Iformata — redefining VNOC services.

With a goal of improving the way we work without changing how we work and of extending the power of high de� nition (HD) video conferencing and vi-sual collaboration beyond the board room and ex-ecutive suite, Magor developed the HDWorkPlace family of Magor TeleCollaboration solutions.
Designed to dramatically improve the effectiveness of video-based meetings, Magor’s HDWorkPlace so-lutions seamlessly integrate advanced collaboration capabilities into a 1080p video conferencing experi-ence that can be securely delivered over best effort IP network connections like the Internet, without overburdening the network or increasing IT costs.
Visual Collaboration: Recognizing that some of the most important assets an enterprise has are the � les, applications and toolkits that reside on each individual’s desktop, Magor uniquely and elegantly brings these assets into each TeleCollaboration ses-sion. Unlike legacy video conferencing systems that treat collaboration as an add on, Magor TeleCol-laboration systems supply the entire collaborative experience – delivering immersive voice, high de� -nition video and comprehensive desktop sharing in a single, easy to use system.
With instant drag-and-drop sharing of computer desktops (any mix of PC, Mac, Linux, UNIX or Solaris systems) through an intuitive graphical user inter-face (GUI), Magor’s visual collaboration capabilities allow permitted participants to see, control and edit shared � les and documents in real time. So, instead of “talk now, do later”, users conduct working vi-sual collaboration sessions that allow them to make decisions, get work done and produce results more quickly.
Peer-to-Peer Communications Architecture: Instead of an MCU-centric design, where all endpoint media streams are mixed and rebroadcast and each par-ticipant’s visual experience is dictated by the MCU, Magor’s � exible peer-to-peer communication ar-chitecture allows each Magor endpoint to operate independently of the others. This means that users can tailor their visual experience to their own needs
– choosing exactly what they see and how they see it, moving and resizing their own video and col-laboration windows in real time and panning and zooming images to suit their own needs and pref-erences. Also, new participants to a Magor TeleCol-laboration session can be added spontaneously and participants can drop out, with no effect on the ex-perience of the other participants. The peer-to-peer approach also delivers the low latency required by HD video communications sessions.
Advanced Scalable Video (SVC++): Recognizing that legacy video conferencing and telepresence systems don’t adequately address the impact that high de� -nition video can have on networks, Magor applied its IP networking heritage and video encoding ex-pertise to break existing video conferencing para-digms. The result is a truly immersive high de� ni-tion visual collaboration system that acts like a good network citizen and doesn’t require complex, dedi-cated engineered networks.
Magor introduces � exible video compression pro-cesses that can adapt in real-time to varying net-work conditions and end-user behavior. By extend-ing basic scalability principles with innovative video segmentation and network adaptation processes that optimize the key areas of the picture and the required network resources, Magor TeleCollabora-tion protects the network from the potential nega-tive impacts of video and overcomes the challenges of delivering 1080p video over best effort network connections such as the Internet.
Magor’s approach to traf� c conditioning, including the use of hierarchical weighted scheduling and ag-gregate traf� c shaping at each endpoint assures a smoother bandwidth consumption pro� le, making Magor TeleCollaboration on IP networks a more predictable application.
Interoperability: Magor has validated interoperabil-ity with legacy video conferencing and telepresence systems from all the major players in the market.

The Telepresence Managed Service includes: pre-deployment support; network design; site surveys; resale; installation; con� guration and support of Cisco TelePresence equipment; centralized shared infrastructure such as CTMS, CUCM, CTM; schedul-ing servers that are owned, operated and managed by Tata; network engineering and bandwidth.

Inter-company services are available to enable Telepresence sessions between Tata customers and other companies with Cisco TelePresence equip-ment through three exchanges deployed in India, the US and the UK. The Inter-Company Exchange ar-chitecture was � rst demonstrated at Cisco Live 2009 where Tata and two other carrier Managed Service providers connected the San Francisco Cisco Live site to � ve locations in the US and the UK. Tata has since signed Interconnection agreements with BT and Telefonica, with more agreements in the works.

Vidyo Products:
At the heart of the Vidyo implementation is the VidyoRouter™ which manages up to 100 concur-rent HD multi-point VidyoLine™ connections in real time. The VidyoRouter™ doesn’t transcode video streams like traditional MCUs from competi-tive solutions but, instead, intelligently routes video streams to individual endpoints based upon its cur-rent bandwidth, processing power, and requested resolution dynamically throughout the call. This revolutionary approach to multi-point video confer-encing enables Vidyo to deliver dynamic rate and resolution matching as well as error localization so that endpoints with a range of capabilities and vary-ing quality network connections can be connected in the same conference with each performing up to its maximum capability. Additionally, since all of the encode and decode functions are performed at the endpoints, individuals can control their video layout independently of all other users in the conference. Since routing is a substantially less processing inten-sive than transcoding, the VidyoRouter™ also elimi-nates the delay in the video stream that has tradi-tionally hindered natural collaborative experiences in MCU-based solutions.
The VidyoGateway™ provides interoperability with H.323 and SIP based endpoints and MCUs. The VidyoGateway™ is implemented as an edge device of the Vidyo network so that the SVC enabled end-points continue to bene� t from the VidyoRouter™ architecture while the H.323 and SIP participants re-ceive the transcoded video that they need.
VidyoPortal™ is a web-based application that pro-vides access, authentication and administration to users and administrators alike. Accessible via URL, the portal allows administrators to con� gure and enable user privileges and set policies across the or-ganization. Users visit the portal to login to their ac-count and initiate or join a conference in progress. VidyoRoom™ is a portfolio of three codecs:
The HD-50/100 can encode and decode up to 720P at 30 frames per second. It supports dual monitors to display conference participants on one monitor and shared applications on the other, with a maximum bandwidth rated at 2 Mbps. The HD-220 encodes and decodes either 1080p at 30 frames per second or 720p at 60 frames per second. Dual monitors and a maximum bandwidth of 6 Mbps are supported. VidyoDesktop™ is the Macintosh and Windows) cli-ent that is downloaded and installed automatically the � rst time a user logins into the VidyoPortal™, either as a registered user or as a guest.
HD video communications infrastructure and
endpoints ranging from PC/Mac soft clients to
telepresence room systems and interoperabil-
ity with H.323 and SIP end points.

Company Mission:
Deliver innovative WAN services that improve the quality and frequency of customer collab-oration, decision-making and operations.
Network Overview:
Virtela takes a unique approach to enterprise WAN services. Within a network of Regional Policy Centers, Virtela is able to seamlessly integrate and aggregate hundreds of the world’s access and backbone infrastructures around the world. The company’s Global Ser-vice Fabric brings the network of RPC resourc-es to deliver optimal performance, resiliency and reach through interconnectivity to more than 5,000 access POPs covering 190+ coun-tries.
Yet that global reach is focused and enabled to address the needs of each enterprise cus-tomer whether MPLS-oriented, as part of a private VPN using frame relay, ATM or private lines services or through an IP VPN provided directly over a network of high-speed secure Internet connections.
The company also recently launched its En-terprise Cloud Services (ESC) architecture that enables delivery of next generation services from 50 local cloud centers around the world, positioning it well for swiftly activating future cloud-based collaboration services.
Services Overview:
Many Virtela customers choose to implement their telepresence implementation as a real-time service within a converged enterprise MPLS or IP VPN WAN, where the Virtela infra-structure leverages one or more uni� ed access circuits for both real-time telepresence and or voice and near-real-time computing traf� c. Other customers choose a separation of traf-� c, a dedicated-to-key applications network design so as to assure security, performance and quality on each of two or more networks. To address these disparate enterprise needs, Virtela provides two powerful video network-ing-optimized solutions for customers.
Services Detail:
The Managed HD Conference Room and the Desktop Video Services each enable converged or dedicated MPLS-class connectivity and se-curity from virtually any location across the globe - on private networks or via VPNs over the Internet. The company’s global network infrastructure supports delay-sensitive appli-cations like Video Conferencing and VoIP by prioritizing traf� c through the Class of Service level. Plus, VirtelaVideo is integrated with Vir-tela VPN solutions, assuring enterprises that their telepresence media traf� c is protected within an MPLS or IP VPN infrastructure.
Going even further, Virtela’s network is opti-mized to deliver packets in sequence, remov-ing the processing burden from the customers’ routers. It also provides global SLAs so custom-ers never have to worry about the quality or delivery of your video service. Customers can engineer their networks for broadcast or HD quality with each service securely and fully managed by Virtela network engineering, se-curity and operations professionals.
Virtela also offers its Secure Video Extranet service that enables inter-company telepres-ence and videoconferencing. Customers can leverage a mix of connections, depending on their business goals and networking strategy (see Virtela Solutions Snapshot).

Key Executives
Company Mission:
Become a market leader by offering the highest quality and most affordable telepresence products and services.
Vu Tele Presence Pro:
Vu TelePresence™ Pro is a solution designed for telepresence conferences between as many as 5 lo-cations. The system incorporates software drivers to enable 1 or 2 screens, includes a PTZ camera, micro-phone, speakers and a codec server. Customers sup-ply their own large-format � at screen TV. The Pro is ideal for home of� ces, individual practices, con-ference rooms, remote workers, and the executive suite.
Vu Tele Presence Premiere:
Vu TelePresence™ Premiere is designed for a larger collaboration group through its interface with a greater number of presentation monitors. A maxi-mum of 3 monitors are supported. This unit comes with a TV mounted optical zoom camera, HD TVs, speakers, microphone and enables up to 5 party conferencing. The Premiere is ideal for boardrooms, meeting rooms, and classroom environments.
Critical Advantages:
• High Quality Experience - All Vu TelePresence™ systems incorporate industry standard H.264 video compression technologies with forward error correction and matrix-based color space conversion to reduce external noise, image pixilation and other presentation defects and otherwise assure a very high quality visual ex-perience at 720p and 30 frames per second. The company also prides itself on delivering excel-lent audio quality through the supplied micro-phones and speakers.
• Simple and Reliable UI for Control and System Operation – With the power of an instant mes-saging directory metaphor – available users and units are shown in a list window; users simply click to activate a session – and with a wireless keyboard and mouse instead of an unreliable and awkward infrared controller wand, users are assured of always-on reliable and intuitive control of their telepresence sessions.
• Advanced Applications – Every unit ships with built in support for advanced features that are typically priced as extras including multi-party conferencing, screen sharing – which also works as a web conferencing service, session recording and archival storage of telepresence recordings.
• Ef� cient Bandwidth Utilization – leverage a proprietary technology for rate balancing, ma-trix based color space conversion and advanced forward error correction the Vu TelePresence systems are able to deliver surprisingly excel-lent quality at 768 kbps or less.
• Special Financing Options – Vu TelePresence of-fers two � nancing solutions that customers will � nd compelling. Firstly, customers can choose to purchase the systems they need for their deployment at prices that are often 50% of the equivalent price from leading brands and resellers. Secondly, customers can choose to conserve cash through a lease arrangement of the implementation where monthly payments are typically less than $100/system/month. This leasing feature alone brings the portfolio into the budget range of many � eld sales executives who might prefer to use a unit in their home of� ce and a unit in the customers’ of� ce to in-crease the telepresence frequency of routine communications with their customers.

VNOC Symphony PlatformThe VNOC Symphony® platform provides the first ubiquitous toolset in the industry to offer fully automated VNOC® services to organizations regard-less of their size. The VNOC Symphony platform consists of customer facing tools, VNOC facing tools, and back-office systems. Built on a web-oriented architecture, VNOC Symphony’s framework easily interacts with current and emerging interface technologies for pervasive and mobile real-time access of any meeting resource.
Customer FacingVNOC Symphony provides users the option of scheduling meetings or requesting an immediate conference with no notice. This process is supported from many interfaces, including Microsoft Outlook, Lotus Notes, an intuitive web interface, an animated Microsoft Silverlight interface, Apple’s iPhone, Google’s Android, Apple’s iPad, and others to come. Using these interfaces, users can select rooms for their conference. For example, launching a ten city conference would require a traditional VNOC 15 to 30 minutes of setup time. Using VNOC Symphony, the user selects the cities from a list of available rooms, and watches the conference sites appear and frame automatically by the VNOC Symphony service regardless of the endpoint manufacturer.
A full featured scheduling toolbox allows users to see photographs of each meeting room, add partici-pants to each site, choose MCU framing, view time zones of each location, and modify in-progress meetings, among other features. An express scheduler widget lets users quickly create a reserva-tion with as few keystrokes as possible, listing the last ten meetings and ten sites as possible quick start selections. A meet-now widget enables users to request immediate video services for sites selected, whether by web interface or mobile application.
VNOC FacingAt the heart of the platform is VNOC Conductor , a runbook engine which polices meeting setup, maintenance, and teardown in an enterprise environment according to an organization’s process rules. Numerous parameters are configurable via VNOC Symphony’s VNOC Composer , which is a drag and drop graphical interface for rapid dynamic workflow generation. VNOC Composer ensures departmental or global directives are followed,
including setup times, startup messaging, teardown messaging, in-progress meeting modification messaging, custom messaging, remedial functions, escalation processes, email notifications, charge-backs, conflict management, and many other processes that regulate a complex enterprise deployment.
The Digital Airline® widget plots live conferences on a geo-spatial interactive map, showing all connected meetings graphically.
VNOC Producer executes against requests from VNOC Symphony, governing conference transac-tions according to a flexible process environment, managing both infrastructure and endpoints, providing automated meeting connections for accurate, repeatable, and immediate conference choreography.
The logic in VNOC Producer is a well implemented process instructed by VNOC Conductor, the commu-nication hub and process implementation logic that VNOC Symphony encapsulates. Based on these network engines, VNOC Producer understands how to filter and manage both routine and highly unique situations. VNOC Producer, as part of the VNOC Symphony platform, provides the first ubiquitous toolset in the industry to offer fully automated VNOC services to organizations, regardless of their size.

Telepresence and Video Conferencing Infra-structure: Every BrightCom implementation of telepresence, room video conferencing, modular or desktop systems bene� ts from the system-wide management and coordina-tion service provided by an enterprise class conferencing infrastructure called the Visual Collaboration System (VCS). The VCS can in-terconnect BrightCom’s Lumina Telepresence, ClearView Video Conferencing solutions, SIP enabled telepresence and video conferenc-ing solutions, and web cameras on remote desktops or laptops. The VCS integrates sev-eral functions of a video conferencing infra-structure into a single network appliance. The VCS capabilities include system management services, meeting scheduling, � rewall NAT tra-versal, security, network operations services and web conferencing services including data sharing and collaborative markup of data.
Integrated Conferencing for Smarter Com-munication: The VCS has enhanced media and document support enabling businesses to eas-ily share and edit a wider range of data. Micro-soft® Of� ce � les, PowerPoint® presentations, Adobe Acrobat® PDF � les, high resolution images and video clips can be shared and ed-ited. Unlike other vendors who broadcast data as video, the VCS presents data in its native format or � les allowing users to interact with their data on a higher level and utilize lower amounts of bandwidth. Meeting participants can leverage the VCS to remote control other participant’s desktops, cooperatively markup data and pass control of the meeting to any participant. Other features including inter-active white boards, audience polling and instant messaging add to the teamwork and productivity vital for successful businesses.
See their faces and understand their ideas: Alongside multiple data broadcasts, the VCS can display up to 16 high de� nition and/or standard de� nition video broadcasts with an unlimited number of meeting participants broadcasting from desktop web cams, con-ference rooms or telepresence suites around the world. Each telepresence or video confer-encing endpoint will automatically adjust the video and data broadcasts to � t the meeting’s contents and participant’s video.
The Future of Conferencing: “The telepres-ence and video conferencing industry is lack-ing the next steps towards a higher level of collaboration. Data in video conferencing to-day is mostly locked up in H.239 data stream-ing. The VCS gives businesses a more interac-tive conferencing experience allowing both data and live video to be equally important to get the job done. Future versions of the VCS will be able to increase the everyday applica-tions of telepresence, such as augmented real-ity and live video editing, for a more robust experience that merges data with live video like never before.” Bob McCandless, CEO of BrightCom
MAGOR’S VISUAL COLLABORATION
Overview
Key Features
A signi� cant differentiator for Magor Tele-Collaboration is the company’s approach to visual collaboration, which can dramatically improve the effectiveness of video-based meetings.
• Allows participants to easily access, share
and manipulate the � les, applications and
other information assets that users keep on
their personal computers.
• Enables documents and fi les to be worked
on in a collaborative manner, with no need
for any specialized training
• Instant drag-and-drop sharing of computer
desktops (any mix of PC, Mac, Linux, UNIX or
Solaris systems) through an intuitive GUI
• Permitted participants can see, control and
edit shared � les and documents in real time.
• Impressive presentation resolution – 1080p
at 30 frames per second
• Collaboration sessions are secure since the
� les being shared never actually leave the
owner’s desktop – the owner maintains the
� le.
www.Magorcorp.com
Magor Communications
Magor Communications’ innovative visual col-laboration capabilities allow participants to easily access, share and manipulate the � les, applications and other information assets that users keep on their personal computers. These assets are often critical to the success of a vi-sual collaboration experience.
Magor’s implementation allows users to eas-ily and seamlessly access and share these im-portant assets during a visual collaboration experience, immediately enabling documents and � les to be worked on in a collaborative manner, with no need for any specialized training. With instant drag-and-drop sharing of computer desktops (any mix of PC, Mac, Linux, UNIX or Solaris systems) through an in-tuitive graphical user interface (GUI), Magor’s advanced collaboration capabilities allow per-mitted participants to see, control and edit shared � les and documents in real time. So, instead of “talk now, do later”, users conduct working visual collaboration sessions that al-low them to make decisions, get work done and produce results more quickly than other systems.
Unlike the clunky requirements for legacy H.239 services where users have to bring their laptops to a meeting and plug them in for a low resolution presentation to remote telep-resence locations, Magor users simply drag an icon of their computer desktop into the work-place area. This instantly brings their desktop into the visual collaboration session – no � d-dling with plugs or connections or enduring low resolution presentations.
Each participant has individual control over how they view that shared collaboration ma-terial. They can scale the document window, larger or smaller, move it to the left or right of the presenter’s image to � t their information needs and viewing preferences – there is no MCU limiting or controlling what each partici-pant can see. Most importantly, users can pass
document-editing control to other Magor TeleCollaboration participants or to remote participants.
Collaboration sessions are secure since the � les being shared never actually leave the owner’s desktop – the owner maintains the � le. This approach helps eliminate the possibility of multiple, perhaps incomplete or incorrect ver-sions of a document � oating around a net-work and reduces the risk of documents or � les inadvertently being released or shared
outside the group.
Magor’s visual collaboration capabilities en-able convenient, natural and spontaneous shared collaboration in 1080p. No monitor real estate needs to be dedicated to document presentations, and users don’t need a separate login ID or monthly service to share a docu-ment. They also don’t need to bring their PCs and power cables to the meeting.
More collaboration. More productivity. Pe-riod.

Addition-ally, the Furnace can record multiple IP video streams and give access to those streams on-demand to any user. Recording and streaming systems enhance distance learning and com-pany meeting environments to overcome the barriers of time, distance and bandwidth.
Haivision’s Furnace combined with their Makito performance encoders, Stingray set top boxes, and the freely available InStream-TM player delivers a coordinated enterprise-wide end-to-end architecture. Furthermore, the Furnace incorporates simple operational processes to record and stream any number of assets in multicast/broadcast sessions for large audiences or in a unicast con� guration for the anytime on-demand sessions.
The Haivision MakitoTM encoders capture the video session(s) to be recorded and distribut-ed at the source. It encodes HD H.264 streams with resolutions up to 1080p60 and a latency of under 70 milliseconds.The Furnace then co-ordinates video storage, security settings and playback administration services from a cen-tral position in the enterprise network.
The power of the Furnace is that the imple-mentation is optimized for IP video. No un-usual wiring requirement, only Ethernet. No special client software – only urls representing the location and properties of each asset. To-day, the Furnace has evolved and gone a step further in providing “intelligent” IP video that allows for editing, tagging, and bookmarking with HotMarksTM.
InStream player
The InStream player is a “zero-footprint” cli-ent server player technology that requires no installation on any computer and works across all common platforms, thus reducing burden from IT staff. By going to a simple web link, authenticated users can view video anywhere, anytime. InStream also offers a highly scalable

Verizon Business
Verizon Business plans to broaden their share of client communications by leading with tele-presence. The Telehealth program encompass-es several leading applications:
Professional education and training – Physi-cians, nurses and all manner of care givers that are licensed typically attend both professional training sessions to retain their licenses and to learn advanced specialist skills. Telepresence sessions are particularly appropriate in this setting, since the high quality experience re-duces fatigue in long training sessions.
Specialist availability – Patients are able to in-teract with the physician specialist as if they were in the room.
Closing the Language Gap – In many com-munities the nurse or attending physician may not speak the language of the patient. Using a video contact center where the contact center agents are translators, the physician or nurse with the patient can speak with the translator in the video session.
Home care – In this circumstance the patient is remote or mobility challenged, where the caregiver needs only check in on the patient.
Recorded training – enabling the recording and then playback of previously recorded training or professional education sessions.
More productive administration – Using tele-presence the time available from not traveling can be put to good use making decisions or collaborating on other projects and opportu-nities.
Verizon Business has the range of network, equipment resale and professional service skills and experience in the healthcare indus-try to implement and grow these and many other applications for this important market.
Through a consultative process, the health-care provider’s business goals are reviewed against the backdrop of the actual communi-cations implementation where the gap analy-sis and equipment class recommendations can be made. Verizon Business prides itself on be-ing equipment agnostic and is able to support equipment from all the leading vendors, and all the leading telepresence and video confer-encing vendors including Cisco/ TANDBERG and Polycom.

The VIVE will also offer an opt-in exchange-wide directory to protect privacy and security.
There are redundant exchanges in North Roy-alton OH and Houston TX that are capable of rapid failover, with redundant MCUs and redundant equipment. Verizon Business has a Cisco TelePresence room setup so that the
help desk can join any call in progress, repli-cate problems and communicate the status of any issues via telepresence.
Assuming the network is already in place, Verizon Business expects to onboard new customers in much less than 30 days. Key dif-ferentiators are the systems redundancy for higher availability, the broadest geographical footprint and an attractive pricing model that offers no minimum monthly bill with usage-based pricing for exchange services.
Initially targeting Cisco TelePresence custom-ers, supported endpoints will be signaling-accessible through the Cisco Uni� ed Commu-nications Manager, which will be expanded to include H.323 gatekeeper and SIP registry or proxy server support.

Vidyo
At the heart of the VidyoConferencing™ system is the VidyoRouter appliance, a new paradigm for multi¬party conferencing, that eliminates the need for the Multipoint Con-trol Unit (MCU) required in traditional video conferencing systems. The VidyoRouter is the keystone in this major architectural change for videoconferencing.
VidyoConferencing was designed for general purpose IP networks. Encoding and decoding oc-curs only at the endpoints — leaving just video packet routing to be accomplished with-in the network itself. Vidyo’s intelligent Vidy-oRouter ensures that this packet-switching is handled with optimal ef� ciency — without either degrading the quality of the video or adding notice¬able latency, yet it delivers rate matched and resolution matched streams to each endpoint while providing industry lead-ing network error resiliency – key to leverag-ing the public Inter¬net and wireless networks to make visual communication work wherever you do.
The VidyoRouter signi� cantly improves net-work utilization ef� ciency by sending along only as many packets as an endpoint is ca-pable of handling, depending on limitations in bandwidth, processing power and screen resolution. And because the amount of pro-cessing power and bandwidth available is dy-namic, the VidyoRouter constantly tests and recalibrates what it should be sending to each endpoint, ensur¬ing that each endpoint is provided with the highest quality video it’s ca-pable of receiving — even as local conditions change from one mo¬ment to the next.
Each VidyoRouter supports up to 100 HD 1080p VidyoLines. A Vidyo¬Line™ is a shared resource that enables any VidyoDesktop user to participate in a point to point or multipoint Vidyo conference.
Since VidyoRooms and legacy endpoints con-nected through the VidyoGate¬way do not consume VidyoLine licenses, purchasing and provisioning a VidyoConferencing system is easy and affordable – however many Vidyo-Desktop users you need to concurrently par-ticipate in calls is the number of VidyoLine licenses you need. It’s that simple
Since all VidyoLines can be managed by a single VidyoPortal™, VidyoLines can reside together on one VidyoRouter or – to op-timize user experience and performance – Vidyo¬Lines can “� oat” among multiple Vidy-oRouters that reside at different geographical loca¬tions, providing both redundancy and improving performance by utilizing VidyoR-outers nearest the participants. Given that endpoints can produce a variety of different resolu¬tions, quality and frame rate combina-tions, the VidyoRouter ensures a video experi-ence of consistent quality that is free of blurry images and broken pictures.

When closed, the DVE Telepresence Podium is compact and can roll through all normal doorways. Inside is an AV equipment space for codec and other gear.
The DVE Telepresence Podium can also be used as a 3-D appearing presentational system . Real objects or 3-D graphics when shaded and rotated appear sol id in form and 3-dimensional. The DVE Telepresence Podium has been designed with the convenience of displaying either 4:3 or 16:9 source images.

As low as $30,499 with HD codec, PTZ camera and 47" monitor
The TelePresence Tech TPT1900 Lectern is the optimal solution for presenting at a distance with 3D TelePresence. This is not another flat screen solution, since the presenter appears life-size physically in front of the integrated backdrop. The presenter has aligned eye contact with the audience to communicate in a natural way. 3D graphics and objects can be displayed to float in the three dimensional setting. These three dimensional visuals can be combined with the display of the live presenter for real time interaction in the three dimensional space. The TPT1900 is fully self contained and is narrow enough to roll through a standard single doorway without disassembly. The system can be placed in any room without any modifications to the lighting or room setting.
The base structure of the TPT1900 has a 19" rack for holding a codec and other electronic equipment. The camera enclosure will hold standard PTZ cameras. Since we do not use a frosted rear project screen our imagery appears contained within the display and does not project onto the ceiling. This TelePresence Tech system uses our patented direct view configuration that delivers exceptional clarity, high contrast ratio, color depth and high definition video quality.

VGo is an entirely new solution that hasn't been available until now. VGo gives you the ability to not only be in a distant location, but also to move around in that location. Remote people can go to where they are needed to get the job done without the cost and inconvenience of travel. The productivity benefits of face-to-face interaction can now go beyond the conference room or the desk to anywhere in your facility. With VGo, you don't make a call- you just go there. Your presence is established remotely via VGo's physical presence. You are not dependent on other people. No one needs to "answer the call"- you just show up (with varying levels of authority/permission). No one needs to be trained- you control everything from where you are.
VGo is applicable in a wide range of industries, both across the enterprise and in small businesses. Offices, education, manufacturing, healthcare and retail are all taking advantage of enabling distant people to be present and active. Remote managers can coach employees, manage their staff and go to where decisions get made. Remote experts can provide their unique skills by assisting, diagnosing and training. People, facilities and processing can be monitored by staff who are distant- anytime and anywhere. And now a simple visit can happen with immediacy never before available- family members with elders, clients can tour manufacturing and development facilities, and telecommuters can feel connected with their co-workers no matter where they are.
