Cisco, Nortel Tee Off in Telepresence
December 6, 2007
The goal in a telepresentation is to make the participants of what we used to label a "conference call" feel as if they're in the same room together. The people are life-sized. Their voices give some approximation of how close or far away they are. The images are bright and vibrant, and the sound is crisp and loud. Both Cisco and Nortel hit very close to the mark, but each has a slightly different advantage.
