New SCOPIA Mobile Extends SCOPIA Conferencing Solution to Apple iPhone, iPod touch and BlackBerry Devices
TEL AVIV, March 23, 2010 – RADVISION® Ltd. (Nasdaq: RVSN), a leading provider of video network infrastructure and developer tools for unified visual communications over IP, 3G, and emerging next-generation IMS networks, today announced SCOPIA Mobile, extending the SCOPIA conferencing solution to the latest generation of mobile devices. SCOPIA Mobile is a free application providing control and management of video conferences hosted on the SCOPIA Elite MCU with Apple® iPhone®, iPod touch® and BlackBerry® smartphones.
SCOPIA Elite is the centerpiece of RADVISION’s new and comprehensive SCOPIA next generation conferencing solution. SCOPIA Elite delivers the industry’s first standards-based MCU with the combination of 1080p, 720p, and H.264 Scalable Video Coding (SVC). Utilizing the latest in DSP technology, SCOPIA Elite supports 1080p processing, telepresence connectivity, dynamic resource allocation, and individual video layouts for each participant yielding uncompromised high definition support.
The free SCOPIA Mobile application is a natural extension to the SCOPIA conferencing solution leveraging the increasing smartphone and mobile digital device penetration amongst enterprise users. SCOPIA Mobile provides the ability to directly control and manage video conferences through the touch screen interfaces of widely available and inexpensive mobile devices.
Examples of what SCOPIA Mobile users can do today:
- Manage meeting participants such as mute the audio of a noisy user, start or stop the video of a user, or even disconnect a disruptive meeting participant.
- Control a meeting such as start or pause recording, start or stop streaming, lock a conference, extend the meeting time, and terminate individual participants or the entire meeting.
- Rearrange the screen layout for each individual participant.
- Invite additional participants (video conferencing room systems, telephones, etc.) including access to corporate directories.
- View participant statistics such as codecs in use, resolution, network speed and loss to assist in basic troubleshooting.
“SCOPIA Mobile enhances the conferencing experience through mobile devices that nearly every business user carries with them wherever they go,” said Roberto Giamagli, General Manager, Networking Business Unit of RADVISION. “We anticipate follow on releases of SCOPIA Mobile to have even greater reach and support additional devices such as the Apple iPad™, in addition to enhanced functionality as these devices evolve in their capabilities.”
