TANDBERG Movi個人電腦視訊會議打破行動協同作業的障礙

台北2009年12月9日電 /美通社亞洲/ — TANDBERG今天推出擁有新先進功能的Movi。Movi是TANDBERG的企業級品質個人電腦(PC)視訊解決方案,可打破協同作業的界限。Movi將內容分享結合到其屬同類最佳之視聽音效並透過集中管理,為行動視訊協同溝通提供完整的套裝。

Wainhouse Research公司合夥人兼分析師Ira Weinstein說:「這套升級版Movi提供一系列令人振奮的新功能,為TANDBERG行動解決方案增添重大價值。Movi的全新使用者界面讓它用起來更為簡便,對使用者來說,操作也更為直覺式。然而,Movi關鍵的改進功能在於提供與其他與會者分享PC內容的能力。此一新能力讓Movi使用者不但可以參與多點多媒體的會議,也可主持類似會議。」

Movi結合獲獎的TANDBERG視訊通訊伺服器(Video Communication Server, VCS),使得任何一台PC都可成為一套企業級品質視訊系統,無縫連結使用者與任何其他標準式H.323及SIP視訊和網真視訊設備。搭配TANDBERG的PrecisionHD USB攝影機,Movi可提供720p 30fps高解析度視訊,確保最高畫質,讓你擁有最佳連線的體驗。這意味著,當使用者呼叫召集網真或視訊會議時,Movi將以卓越的高畫質運作,為所有與會者提供最佳的視訊經驗。透過TANDBERG這樣的佈建架構,TANDBERG可在極短時間內部署數千套這種強大的解決方案,擴大企業的視訊網路,為企業提供使用簡便且符合成本效益的視覺溝通能力。

TANDBERG執行長Fredrik Halvorsen說:「企業不必再受限於辦公室了。在今天的市場環境中,有效的行動協同作業是決策及迅速回應市場時所不可或缺的能力。Movi使得人們無論何時何地都可以透過企業級品質的PC視訊,進行面對面溝通,還可以與他們的同事、顧客或供應商分享PC內容。這項解決方案使得遠距且分散的所有工作人員,都能於全球視訊社區中成為機會平等的成員。」

Movi透過即時內容分享和聯絡人狀態等功能,幫助企業確保了遠距的生產力以及企業的機動性。分離式視訊及控制界面結合電話簿的使用,為其他Movi使用者提供即時資訊。使用者只要點一下滑鼠,便可發起視訊呼叫。最理想的是,Movi與符合標準之多點控制單元的互通性,使得Movi能夠不限於單一點至點連線,這點與其他PC式解決方案非常不同。此一互通性讓Movi使用者可以同時與不同裝置上的多個使用者連線,為所有使用者提供更佳的操作與視聽體驗。此外,子母畫面的內容分享與影像視窗顯示,提供同時進行內容分享與面對面溝通的最佳作業模式。Movi也可與TANDBERG的智慧型網路系統整合,進行如防火牆穿越、多點視訊會議、記錄與存檔、和連結ISDN服務的功能。

根據北卡羅萊納大學Lineberger綜合癌症中心遠距醫療組主任Michael Young的說法,Movi已使得整個北卡羅萊納州的醫師和病患們都能與癌症中心的醫師連結,並進行協同溝通,帶來更完善的病患照顧。

Michael Young說:「 Movi是我們的視訊解決方案的一部分,它讓我們的醫師們無論身在何處,都能利用他們的PC進行協同作業。現在Movi更增添了標準化內容分享能力,我們的醫師們能夠從事更高層次的協同作業,譬如在現場與癌症中心分享文件和應用,同時進行面對面通訊。其結果是,我們為遍佈全州的病患提供更好的照顧,並達到過去非得耗時費力長途奔波才能辦到的協同作業程度。」

TANDBERG Movi PC Video Conferencing Breaks Down the Barriers to Mobile Collaboration
TAIPEI, Dec. 9 /PRNewswire-Asia/ — Today, TANDBERG announced new advanced capabilities for Movi, its business-quality PC video solution, for collaboration without boundaries. Movi delivers the total package for mobile video collaboration by coupling the ability to share content with its already best-in-class video and audio capabilities and centralized management.

“This Movi upgrade delivers a series of exciting and critical new capabilities that add significant value to the TANDBERG mobility solution,” said Ira Weinstein, analyst and partner at Wainhouse Research. “Movi’s new user interface makes it easier to use and more intuitive for users. However, the key enhancement is the ability to share PC content with other session participants. This new capability allows Movi users to not only participate in, but also to host high impact, rich media collaboration sessions.”

In combination with the award-winning TANDBERG Video Communication Server, Movi enables any PC to become a business-quality video system that seamlessly connects users to any other standards based H.323 and SIP video and telepresence system. Paired with the TANDBERG PrecisionHD USB camera, Movi enables high definition 720p 30fps video to ensure the highest resolution for the best call experience. This means when calling into a telepresence or video conference meeting, Movi will operate with superior HD quality to provide the best visual experience for all participants. This powerful solution can be deployed to thousands in minutes with TANDBERG’s large scale provisioning solution and extends an enterprise’s video network to enable cost-effective, easy-to-use video.

“Businesses can no longer be limited by their office locations. Effective mobile collaboration is a necessity for decision making and responsiveness in today’s economy,” said Fredrik Halvorsen, TANDBERG CEO. “Movi enables people anywhere in the world to come together face-to-face using business-quality PC video while sharing content with colleagues, customers and suppliers. This allows the legions of remote and dispersed workers to become equal members of the global video community.”

Movi helps ensure remote productivity and seamless enterprise mobility through real-time content sharing and contact presence functionality. The separate video and control interfaces coupled with the use of directories make access to real-time presence information for other Movi users and initiating a video call as simple as a mouse click. Best of all, interoperability with standards compliant multipoint control units ensures that Movi is not limited to single point-to-point connections like other PC-based solutions. It allows users to simultaneously connect with multiple users on different devices, optimizing call quality and experience for all. Moreover, picture-in-picture capabilities for content sharing and self view provide flexibility to see who you are talking to while collaborating or sharing content. Movi also takes full advantage of TANDBERG’s intelligent network features like firewall traversal, multipoint conferencing, recording and archiving, and the ability to connect with legacy ISDN services.

According to Michael Young, Director of Telemedicine at the University of North Carolina Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center, Movi has enabled physicians and patients from all over North Carolina to connect and collaborate with doctors at the Cancer Center, resulting in greater patient care.

“Movi is an integral part of our video solution and enables our doctors to collaborate using their PCs no matter their geographic location,” said Young. “Now, with the added capability of standards based content sharing on Movi, our physicians can collaborate at an even higher level than before; sharing documents and applications from the field while engaging in face-to-face communications. The end result is a higher level of care for our patients across the entire state and a level of collaboration that was not possible before without significant and time consuming travel.”
