THE ROAD TO  PERSONAL TELEPRESENCE Video Conferencing that Works  in the Real World December 22, 2009 Vidyo Proprietary Confidential & Patent Pending Information
WHY IS NOW THE TIME FOR VIDEO CONFERENCING? Organizations Are Changing Organizations want to improve productivity dramatically Collaboration that enables the cycle time to decrease at lower cost Green initiatives have focused attention on travel options Telework options are part of most organizations plans  Technology Has Changed High quality video at much lower cost HD under $10,000 Network bandwidth available at reasonable costs Remote locations including homes Public Awareness is Already There Cisco telepresence initiative has awakened CEO desire From YouTube to iChat, consumers are using video
INTRODUCING PERSONAL TELEPRESENCE An Immersive, Addictive and Natural Experience Best mix of Highest  Resolution , Highest  Frame Rate  and Lowest  Latency Anyone Not just executives, but everyone with access to a personal computer and broadband access to the Internet Anywhere HQ, Regional office, Home office, Hotel room, Starbuck’s, 3G+… anywhere Telepresence rooms, Conference rooms, Desktops, Laptops, ultra-laptops Anytime No reservations & not limited to room availability, but instantly available at anytime Vidyo significantly improves price/performance while enabling the integration of all  these applications into a single experience.
WHAT’S WRONG WITH IP VIDEO CONFERENCING? Unsolved technical barriers  High sensitivity to network conditions Packet loss degrades quality Too much latency Performance and price are not in-line with user expectations High quality enterprise-wide solutions are cost prohibitive Dedicated devices and networks No acceptable solutions for desktop users  No ‘universal connectivity’ limits value of videoconferencing systems Between enterprises Systems within the enterprise
