Vu Telepresence Unveils Next Generation Telepresence Technology: Vu Telepresence 3.0 with Enterprise Capability

Vu Telepresence^®, an innovator and leader in telepresence technology, today announced it has upgraded its existing solution with the release of Vu Telepresence (News - Alert) 3.0, a more robust version of the Vu Pro^©.

The evolution of the Vu system can be traced back to the Vu Pro^© (1.0), which offered its users HD video on low bandwidth. With the launch of version 2.0, came interoperability and the ability for Vu systems to communicate with other third-party systems. Vu Telepresence 3.0, with enterprise capability and all of the benefits of its current technology, can be deployed both on the Internet for business-to-business communication, as well as on MPLS (multiprotocol label switching) for private company networks for internal collaboration needs.

"Through innovative engineering and research, Vu continues to differentiate itself from the competition, by developing next generation telepresence that is high-end, yet affordable," stated Devita Saraf (News - Alert), Co-Founder of Vu Telepresence. While other providers may limit your use and function with costly upgrades, Vu systems come standard with H video quality (720p and 1080p); HD audio; H.323, SIP and XMPP interoperability; customizable user interface; dual display support; desktop collaboration; recording and archival functionality; and multi-party conferencing (4+1).

With the unveiling of version 3.0, Vu plans to set its sights on companies with existing video conferencing systems - plus those who are new to the technology.

"Prior to today, our primary focus has been on the SMB market, with our core business deriving from the consulting, finance, healthcare, legal and education verticals. We are confident that with the upgrades we have made, we will be able to venture out into new markets, where global communication is the nucleus of day-to-day operations and success," commented Saraf.
