The Perfect Storm of
Telepresence, Part 2
By John DeWitt
 The exploding application market for
telepresence—video communication that incorporates audio, visual,
and physical elements of a meeting-room environment to create an
immersive experience—is a double-edged sword, offering both
challenges as well as significant opportunities for AV integrators in
the corporate space, according to Michael Brandofino, president and CEO
of Glowpoint, a Hillside, N.J.-based provider of managed video
communications services. Glowpoint’s recently announced Telepresence
Exchange Network (TEN) supports telepresence video calls between
companies on different networks, and it enables video calls to existing
conference room and desktop environments. In Part 2 of SVC’s
Q&A with Brandofino, he identifies several high-growth sectors and says
that despite the tendency of telepresence technology vendors to rely
upon their existing stable of certified integrators, the telepresence
boom opens up many other opportunities for AV contractors to implement
corporate video communications, particularly when you can offer
lower-cost solutions. more>>
