What is meant by “Cinematic View” and why is this important to telepresence?
Cinematic View in a Polycom RPX HD Suite refers to the expansive, seamless video wall of 8 to 16 feet. Participants experience an uninterrupted, large-as-life, wide view of the participants in the adjoining, virtual RPX HD Suite. The aspect ratio of the video wall in an RPX HD 200 Series Suite is 24:9 and 48:9 in an RPX HD 400 Series Suite. This is important in a telepresence solution because it truly gives the feeling of being present in the room with the far end video participants, unlike other solutions that give the appearance of having “windows into the other room” with distracting seams and segmented video displays. What is the video infrastructure on which the RPX HD Suites are based? The Polycom RPX HD Suites use the industry leading Polycom HDX 9004 video codecs for all video processing. This third generation video technology from the world’s premier manufacturer of video communications products offers unprecedented video quality in high definition 720p at 30 fps.
