For years, the limitations of the current crop of video communications solutions have become uncomfortably apparent. Beyond the expense of the systems and solutions themselves — not to mention the special rooms and dedicated networks these systems require — users have been forced to bear with decidedly marginal performance … choppy frames, long delays, blurred motion, broken pictures, and the like. Given the expense of these systems, people have had good reason to expect more.

And now those expectations will finally be realized. Allow us to introduce you to VidyoConferencing products that deliver higher-quality experiences and greater deployment flexibility — and all at a lower cost … over general-purpose IP networks. Does this sound too good to be true? Believe it! And that’s just for one simple reason: VidyoConferencing products are built on top of a better technical foundation than all those other video conferencing solutions — namely, the H.264 Scalable VideoCoding (SVC) standard. What’s more, a full range of user environments is provided for — extending all the way from the home-office desktop up to the dedicated corporate video-conferencing facility.

VidyoConferencing products have all been designed to take advantage of an organization’s existing IP infrastructure — with no dedicated networks required. And yet Vidyo still manages to surpass the quality of video communications as we’ve known them to date — and at just a fraction of the cost. By addressing the performance, cost, ease-of-use, and networking issues associated with traditional conferencing solutions, Vidyo has at long last made broad-based video communications affordable for both enterprises and consumer applications alike.

VidyoOne delivers all of the VidyoConferencing hardware and software components required for desktop conferencing in a single 1U appliance at a single fixed price, making it easy and affordable for any organization to deploy their own VidyoConferencing solution. All that’s left to do is connect it to the network. So now everyone in your organization can communicate more effectively from anywhere they have an Internet connection.

The VidyoRouter™ functionality included in VidyoOne replaces the expensive Multipoint Control Unit (MCU) found in legacy H.264/AVC based video conferencing systems. Gone are the days of transcoding which adds latency and degraded quality to the video stream. VidyoOne intelligently routes video packets to endpoints where decoding takes place, delivering the highest quality video possible. Using Scalable Video Coding (SVC) technology, VidyoOne is able to provide each endpoint with rate matched video streams based upon that endpoint’s available bandwidth, processing power, and resolution capability. The result is robust, seamless, connectivity among conference participants with individualized screen layouts, over low-cost general purpose IP networks – including the Internet.
