Polycom announced a new line of highly adaptable immersive telepresence solutions – dubbed, the Polycom Architected Telepresence Experience (Polycom ATX) 300. The Polycom ATX 300 solutions can be customized by “qualified” ProAV integrators – making this an “exclusive” integrator product.
The Polycom ATX 300 is basically a telepresence “kit” featuring technology components and software that is combined with planning, design, and implementation services from ProAV integrators (you) partner with clients to create customized solutions for a broad range of industries and applications. The system can be used to create unique immersive telepresence environments customized with displays, furniture, lighting, acoustics, d?cor, etc. Customers can also choose to incorporate existing furniture or components to reduce costs and adapt the system to unique room requirements. For example, in businesses the Polycom ATX can be adapted into research and development environments to accelerate time-to-market for new products by connecting global teams and creating tighter collaboration with partners and supplies – thus, proving an ROI. In manufacturing environments, telepresence can be integrated to enable effective remote quality assurance for facilities anywhere in the world by enabling people in other locations to see and examine products as they come off the line in real time.
Polycom ATX solutions are based on established video conferencing standards and open interoperability, so organizations can use them with existing video conferencing systems and with the estimated two million standards-based video conferencing and telepresence systems in use today.
Mike Brandofino, executive vice president of video communications and unified collaboration at integrator AVI-SPL said, “When Telepresence was introduced with only a few room sizes and configurations, our customers kept asking us if we could reproduce the Telepresence experience, but with different layouts and that could interface with other audio and video equipment. As soon as ATX was available, it gave us the full kit of Polycom functionality with the ability to let our design engineers use their creative talents to create solutions that specifically meet our customer requirements.”
