Fuze Meeting Turns the Android Smartphones and Honeycomb Tablets into Virtual Conference Rooms with Multi-Party HD Video Conferencing
Fuze Meeting becomes the world’s first HD video collaboration service to Android 2.2 smartphones and 3.0 tablets.
SAN FRANCISCO – March 30, 2011 – FuzeBox, the leader in mobile HD video collaboration, today announces multi-party HD video conferencing, as a major update to its industry-leading web conferencing product Fuze Meeting, which brings people together into an immersive virtual collaborative environment, regardless of their device. Fuze Meeting’s new multi-party HD video conferencing comes complete with an improved user interface, support for all major smart phone, tablet and computer operating systems, and larger set of real-time multimedia sharing and annotation options.
Now, with support for even the latest devices, including the Motorola Atrix, HTC Thunderbolt and the Motorola Xoom, anyone can conduct a video meeting hosted in the cloud over WiFi or 3G, from anywhere. The powerful new user interface allows either the content or video conference to take center stage, while meeting controls minimize into the background, for a truly immersive experience.
“Physical presence through video conferencing has revolutionized the way we conduct meetings and the efficiency with which we collaborate,” says Jeff Cavins, CEO of FuzeBox. “This newest iteration of Fuze Meeting allows teams to collaborate as if they were together in person, using any device from any location.”
Fuze Meeting’s innovation moves beyond the current video collaboration space. The multi-party HD video conferencing is delivered at 720P, while maintaining the highest fidelity at low latency by dynamically adapting to a user’s available bandwidth with the Vidyo Adaptive Video Layering technology, using H.264 SVC. Fuze Meeting’s multi-party HD video conferencing is available for up to 10 video participants at once.
