LifeSize Communications Introduces High Definition Video Conferencing for under $5k
April 19th, 2008 by Video Conferencing Expert
Hollywood would have you believe that all video conferencing takes place on large, high definition screens at 30 frames per second. In reality most video conference applications only show a small window of the people on the other side of the camera at half that frame rate… until now.
LifeSize Communications, a provider of high definition video communications products, has announced a new high definition video communication system. The LifeSize Focus integrates a high definition camera and a microphone array which is now available for $4999.
Compact, simple and elegant, LifeSize Focus features a HD video camera that delivers full HD 1280 x 720 video at 30 frames per second. Built to operate in any office or conference room environment, the camera delivers outstanding image quality in a wide range of light conditions. An integrated two-microphone array with beam-forming technology provides excellent sound quality. By integrating the microphone array in the camera housing, LifeSize Focus saves space and eliminates clutter.
The LifeSize focus is ideal for new users seeking a audio and video conference system, or companies expanding and upgrading their current infrastructure to high definition. By reducing cost and complexity, LifeSize said its video conferencing systems can be deployed almost anywhere, by anyone. LifeSize Focus is simple enough for anyone to use, yet it can be fully managed and integrated into the more sophisticated IT infrastructures found in large organizations.
