Tandberg, a leading provider of telepresence technology, today (March 4) launched Movi, its mobile high-definition video solution for the PC.

The secure PC video application is said to bring a new level of quality, scalability and interoperability to PC video by enabling high-definition communication from a PC to any other standards-based telepresence and video solution.

Movi extends an enterprise’s video network to enable face-to-face communication with colleagues, customers and suppliers from anywhere at anytime without compromising on quality and security.

“With Movi, there are no boundaries to where business can take place. Everyone in an organisation can stay visually connected at all times,” said Fredrik Halvorsen, Tandberg CEO.

“Movi brings mobility to the Tandberg total solution, making it the industry’s strongest and most scalable portfolio of video products and network infrastructure solutions available.”

Movi delivers up to high-definition 720p and 30fps resolution when using a web camera such as the Tandberg PrecisionHD USB camera. This means when calling into a telepresence or video conference meeting, the PC video will operate with superior quality to provide the best visual experience for all participants.

Movi also takes full advantage of Tandberg’s intelligent network features like firewall traversal, multipoint conferencing, recording and archiving, as well as the ability to connect with legacy ISDN services.

Via an Internet connection, a USB camera, microphone and speakers, Movi offers instant, face-to-face meetings on a PC. Moreover, Movi’s CD-quality audio with echo cancellation provides best-in-class audio and the highest level of clarity. Coupled with its sleek and intuitive interface, users are assured of a flawless experience.

“For mobile video solutions to be embraced by the business community, they must provide superior performance and interoperability that comparable consumer products cannot,” said Andrew W Davis, senior partner at Wainhouse Research.

“Movi has all of these features as well as the reliability and security offered by Tandberg’s total solution.”

Movi can be scaled to thousands of users and is fully integrated with the Tandberg management suite, providing phone books and directories, as well as the ability to see and advertise presence.

This means users can see who is available in real time and connect with them at the click of their mouse, said a statement. – TradeArabia News Service
