About Telepresence World 2007
"You have to experience it to believe it" is often heard when describing how telepresence works. At the Telepresence World 2007 conference, June 4-6, at the University of San Diego, San Diego, CA, attendees will be able to do just that--experience live, real-time demonstrations of telepresence technology provided by industry leaders and event sponsors Polycom, Teliris, Cisco, Telanetix, BT, DVE (Digital Video Enterprises), and Masergy. Telepresence, which uses high definition video and audio, large, high-resolution displays, and low-latency networks to offer the most realistic meeting experience possible between people separated by distance, will vastly simplify the way virtual collaboration takes place.
