What We Do

Dual Screen Immersive Telepresence

Page 3: Array Telepresence & Equal-i Technology - An Overview

The Basics

The $15,990 Equal-i advanced imaging system replaces the Pan-Tilt-Zoom camera that comes with most videoconferencing systems

The DX Camera plugs into the 2S Image Processor which plugs into the videoconferencing codec as a camera

The 2S Image Processor also sits between the codec and the displays so it can improve both the scene being sent and the scene being received

Equal-i turns Any VC Room Into an Immersive Environment

Equal-i View: Dual- Displays Using A Single

Codec

Traditional PTZ View: Same Scene Without Equal-i

CREATES AN Equal-i ZATION OF IMAGES

The biggest challenges of group videoconferencing systems – the elongated table, visible cameras, poor eye-line and small heads with

indecipherable features– are remedied Equal-i!

Improvements: 6.5xs more pixels on farthest person, camera concealed for better meeting psychology, eye-line improved to perfect vertical, farthest person Equal-i-zed” to the size of closest, everyone improved to roughly life-size, format improved to a more “across-the-table” experience, and a single codec populating dual-screens to create a more immersive experience

Revolutionary Capabilities – Immersive Everywhere

Immersive Everywhere is Array’s revolutionary capability to send our dual-screen, immersive telepresence view to dual-screen videoconferencing systems that don’t yet have Equal-i Technology.

Your executives, subject matter experts, and brand look better when conferencing with partners and customers!

• Immersive Everywhere requires a videoconferencing codec with a 1080p/30 data channel OR a dual stream videoconferencing codec (Polycom 500/700 Series, Cisco SX 20/80, etc)

• The 1080p data channel is used to send the 2nd screen of video• Participants can easily switch back-and-forth between dual

screen immersive telepresence and Video+Content for data collaboration.

• Equal-i can simultaneously send a better view using Immersive Everywhere while improving the incoming scene using Immersive PTZ

Page 6: Array Telepresence & Equal-i Technology - An Overview

Revolutionary Capabilities - Video+Content

• Video+Content – Use the Array tablet app or Crestron/AMX Control to switch between immersive telepresence on both screens to our proprietary single-screen view which is still way better than a PTZ and content/data on the 2nd

display. This is also the scene used to improve calls with MCUs, Video Meeting Rooms, and desktop videoconferencing apps like Skype4Business and Zoom.

Revolutionary Capabilities – Immersive PTZ

Standard Incoming PTZ View Improved Equal-i View – Centered & Spread Across Dual Displays

When the remote site only has a PTZ , the Equal-i system can improve the incoming video & light up the 2nd screen• Farthest participants brought “Up Close and Personal”, centered & spread across 2 displays• Partial Equalization so participants are more equal in size• Improved Meeting Format to more “Across the Table” feel• Better, more immersive experience for local participants • Equal-i can simultaneously send a better view using Immersive Everywhere while improving the incoming scene

using Immersive PTZ

The industry’s only bi-directional image improvement solution

What if the Other Side Doesn’t Have Equal-i?

They Still Get a Way Better Experience!

Two options to send to non-Equal-i sites:

• Immersive Everywhere – If the remotesite is equipped with dual displays and avideoconferencing codec with a 25/30 fpsdata channel.

• Video+Content – Array’s proprietarysingle screen view for improvingconferences with a single or dual-screenvideoconferencing system, going throughan MCU, or when connecting to desktopvideoconferencing e.g Ubiety, Skype4B,Zoom, Vidyoway, BlueJeans, Spark, VaaS-Tetc

Page 9: Array Telepresence & Equal-i Technology - An Overview

The Big Idea: Array’s Equal-i technology is the biggest improvement to the quality of group videoconferencing since high-definition video and life-size immersive telepresence each revolutionized the industry in similar ways.

Array’s Equal-i technology allows organizations to:• Improve how executives/subject matter experts and the firm’s

“Brand” come across when conferencing with partners, vendors, clients, analysts, and media.

• Dramatically improve the quality of their existing systems without any changes to codecs, video network infrastructure, or network bandwidth.

• Cost-effectively upgrade dozens or hundreds of rooms at relatively low-cost compared with existing multi-screen, multi-codec offerings.

• Improve the scene their executives are receiving to dual-screen immersive so facial features and body language are apparent

The Big Idea Customer Benefits

No one looks good with a tiny head!

Array provides reputational benefits improving how a company’s “Brand” and

executives come across on video while simultaneously making the far-side

participant’s facial expressions and body language more visible which is often the

most important “data” being shared in a call.

The New and Natural “Industry Standard” for Immersive Telepresence is Dual-ScreensMost modern codecs are dual-screen systems or dual-screen capable with 1080p data channels which enable Array’s Immersive Everywhere capability to send a dual-screen immersive scene

• Most board rooms and conference rooms support dual-screen configurations much easier architecturally than the “split-table” approach of existing 3 screen immersive solutions

• Most existing dual-screen systems are capable of receiving Array’s Immersive Everywhere immersive, dual-screen scene

Page 13: Array Telepresence & Equal-i Technology - An Overview

A 25% Array Deployment Improves Quality/Experience Across an Entire Video Estate

Because Equal-i is improving both the scene you send and the scene you receive you can lift the experience of an entire video estate by deploying Equal-i to the top 25%-35% of the most used rooms. While Equal-i is an end-point solution it should more appropriately be budgeted similarly to video infrastructureNote: All rooms that are connecting with partners or clients would need to have an Equal-i system for Immersive Everywhere.

“Because an Equal-i deployment in the top 25% of an organization’s

video rooms will improve the quality-of-experience across the

entire video estate the true cost of the solution per room isn’t $15,990

but averages $3997 per room!”
