Visual recently announced the release of the Visual-EZ operating system for simplified video conference system operation. Visual-1000 Series is a PC based desktop video conferencing system for direct connection to the public or private digital branch exchange network. The fully integrated PC includes Microsoft Office for productivity, with Intel Proshare and Microsoft's NetMeeting for collaborative work groups. The system allows continuous full frame presence and graphics on two video displays mounted on a portable roll-about cabinet. This system was developed specifically to meet the needs of the Distant Learning and Tele-medical applications, but is more than competitive when used in medium to large group video conferencing, similar to other legacy systems.
Series is a new low profile, fully integrated personal video conference station for the desktop.
Power platform for the unit is the Pentium 130 MHz CPU with 82430VX PCI chip set. Windows 95 is the standard operating. The Visual-1100 provides H.320, standards based video conferencing on a single ISDN BRI line, in a fully integrated, high performance workstation that takes very little space on the desk. The system allows for full size or scaleable primary receiving image on a display monitor, eliminating image shrinkage to fit inside a windows interface. EZ system provides ten screen buttons with pull up menus.
