Telepresence

Saving Time, Money, and Resources

We all know the high price of traveling to meetings.  It's expensive, takes lots of time, and creates a big impact on our environment.  Yet there is nothing more productive than being right in the same room with someone, communicating face-to-face.

The good news is that with today's new technologies, you can cut back significantly on all those negatives and still maintain the positives. Using new and advanced video conferencing solutions called telepresence, you can travel less, save more, and still reap all the rewards of meeting in person.

What is Telepresence?

Telepresence is a form of video conferencing. The difference is that a telepresence system is carefully configured so that everyone taking part in a conference feels like they are actually "present" in the same room with the other participants.

By carefully controlling factors like room layout, furnishings, and lighting, and including technologies like high definition cameras and high quality audio, all participants - wherever they are in the world - feel like they are together in the same location carrying on a conversation.

Body language is a key factor in successful communication. With telepresence, everyone can read the body language and physical nuances of other participants. The sense that everyone is in the same room enhances group rapport and accelerates the overall outcome of any discussion. You get things done faster and better, while saving time, money, and resources.

To accomplish all this, telepresence technology utilizes:

• High definition cameras and displays for realistic images
• Larger scale displays that present life-size images of all participants
• Design aesthetics and furnishings that are mirrored in each location
• Room layout and camera positioning that results in life-like visuals
• High quality, naturalistic lighting that creates a real life look and feel
• Quality audio and noise management that generates acoustic realism
• Advanced network connectivity and bandwidth 

Take Telepresence to the Next Level

A pre-defined telepresence system is great for organizations who will use the facility regularly enough to dedicate space to a purpose-built environment. Mechdyne can also customize an inter-operable facility that provides an adaptable telepresence experience, one that - with additional technologies - allows for other uses, such as:

• Training
• Presentations
• Design reviews
• 3D immersive and simulation experiences

Telepresence  - Easy to use, Easy to Control

Regardless of how many functions a customized space may have, we pay close attention to making the technology easy to use for any participant. Our Mechdyne Control System is very intuitive while still enabling a myriad of technology options.
