Telepresence creates an in-person, face-to-face meeting experience that is immersive, authentic and natural. People appear as lifesize images on large, high definition screens. Natural eye contact is achieved through superior camera technology and placement. Every word is heard as if you were sitting across the table. Clarity of gestures, facial expressions and body language contribute to the overwhelming sensation of being present.
