CATEGORIES: Living In Layers | RC | September 22, 2009

Hey guys… RC here.. very quick glimpse into the news for today, as things are full speed now for the upcoming Photoshop World conference next week.

skyroom HP Launches SkyRoom
I just got this in today, and I always like to keep an ear up for anything that helps cross collaboration over the internet. If you’re thinking of videoconferencing, you now have to think about HP. Read more about it below:

“HP today established a new category in videoconferencing with the introduction of HP SkyRoom – affordable, high-definition videoconferencing software(1) that offers live, real-time collaboration for instant face-to-face meetings with no subscription fees.

HP SkyRoom is based on breakthrough video and image communication technology developed in HP Labs , the company’s central research arm. Elements of this technology were used by NASA’s Mars rovers to transfer high-resolution images back to Earth.

HP SkyRoom is the only videoconferencing tool to offer live collaboration for up to four people over a standard business network for $149 – less than the cost of round-trip airfare from San Francisco to Los Angeles.

Until now, companies have had only two options for videoconferencing – expensive enterprise telepresence systems or Internet freeware tools that strip out the subtleties of human interactions and don’t allow for the sharing of rich media content such as video and computer-aided design manipulation.

HP SkyRoom will be included as a standard feature – at no cost – on select HP business desktop and mobile workstations..”
