Marconi Enhances Video Conferencing Virtual Presence System

Marconi Corporation announced product enhancements to its ViPr Virtual Presence System for high-resolution, real-time, multimedia communications between geographically dispersed locations. The ViPr System merges video-conferencing and IP-based voice services to deliver DVD-quality video and CD-sharp sound on a platform optimized for point-to- multi-point desktop communications. The ViPr Series II integrates a touch screen, camera, speakers, and other components into a compact, desktop platform. In addition, the enhancements include several SIP-based gateways to simplify ViPr's integration with legacy telephone networks and WANs. Marconi also announced today that it would extend its ViPr market reach from the U.S. federal government to European national governments and to state and local government markets in the U.S. for use in real-time multimedia intelligence briefings, command and control communications and telejustice applications.
