Traditionally, telepresence
solutions require various components for optimal functionality,
including a video system, mounted display, audio device (such as a
micpod or phone), and camera as well as furniture and coordinating room
makeovers for uniformity in each office. The LifeSize Unity Series
removes the complexity from this model by offering an integrated
solution that takes only minutes to assemble without the use of tools
and without sacrificing quality. This new product line boasts
best-in-class video, audio and presentation capabilities elegantly
designed and powered by superior LifeSize video technology as its
engine. Easy to deploy or redeploy anywhere, the Unity Series provides
global uniformity for a consistent user experience across sites.
"With the LifeSize Unity Series, the telepresence experience is now in
reach for companies of all sizes," said Michael Helmbrecht, vice
president and general manager of video solutions at LifeSize. "Let's
face it, businesses need to speed decision making and improve
productivity across the entire organization. By creating a series of
products optimized to provide a telepresence-class experience, yet
simple to deploy and use, we are making HD video conferencing easier
than ever to bring to every home office, executive office or conference
room. For companies who need to conserve their IT resources or have
traditionally thought video conferencing was too complex or expensive to
deploy, the wait is over."
LifeSize Unity 50 is a True HD 720p30 tabletop or wall-mounted solution
with a 24" LED display for executive offices, small workspaces and home
offices. Engineered with simplicity in mind, the LifeSize Unity 50 is
