Attendees can also experience firsthand Lifesize Conference at InfoComm HD Conferencing and Telepresence Showcase

Lifesize Communications, the global leader in high definition video communications, will showcase its range of true HD video communications solutions at InfoComm in Las Vegas June 18-20, 2008. InfoComm attendees can also experience the Lifesize® Conference™ telepresence suite, the first telepresence suite that can be tailored to the needs of the customer environment. With live calls to the company’s headquarters in Austin, Texas, attendees can communicate with the Austin team as if they were in the same room.

“Lifesize is proud to be a sponsor of the InfoComm HD Conferencing & Telepresence Showcase, the perfect venue for people to come experience our telepresence room in person,” said Craig Malloy, CEO of Lifesize. “Lifesize Conference creates the sensation of everyone being together in a single room and delivers the richest possible telepresence experience.”

“In the three years since Lifesize introduced the world’s first high definition video system, we have led the industry by offering not only the best quality of experience, but the greatest flexibility and price performance of any video communications solution,” said Malloy. “Our goal is to make HD video communications accessible for everyone.” Lifesize provides a full range of true HD video communications solutions, ranging from individual communications to telepresence.

Lifesize Conference telepresence suite provides organizations, integrators and AV consultants the HD video infrastructure necessary to create custom telepresence rooms. The system features multiple displays, up to three HD cameras, and an integrated a wireless control panel. It is priced at less than $40,000. By contrast, competing systems from companies such as Hewlett-Packard and Cisco often cost in excess of $200,000.

In addition to Lifesize Conference, attendees will also have the opportunity to experience the full range of Lifesize products. In booth C3287, customers can experience Lifesize® Express™ with Focus, the world’s most affordable high definition video communications system; Lifesize® Team MP™, the world’s only high definition video communication system with embedded HD multipoint capability available for less than $10,000; and Lifesize® Room™, dual-monitor, dual-camera video communications ideal for the conference room.

Once viewed as an expensive, complex technology only found in large global enterprises, Lifesize HD video systems are designed to enable broad deployment of video communications throughout any organization. Starting at less than $5000, Lifesize’s all-HD video product portfolio ranges from simple point-to-point video communications systems to highly-customized, multi-display, multi-HD camera systems.

All Lifesize products provide stunning quality that delivers an immersive, high definition experience over existing broadband networks. Lifesize systems deliver high definition video at only 1 Mbps of bandwidth and DVD quality video at 512 kbps, allowing companies to deploy video to many locations without altering their current network or provisioning additional bandwidth.

“We encourage conference attendees to stop by our booth so they can experience true HD video communications for themselves – nothing can convey the power of high definition like an actual video call,” said Malloy. “Once people experience the quality and authenticity, they immediately see how this technology can improve business processes, reduce travel and speed decision cycles. The possibilities are endless once companies take the first step.”
