Quanta, OoVoo Announce Plans for HDTV-Based Teleconferencing
Monday, March 24, 2008
By bMighty.com Staff
Laptop manufacturer Quanta and videoconferencing provider OoVoo will work together on a device to connect a standard HDTV to the Internet for high-def video conferencing.
According to OoVoo Chief Executive Philippe Schwarz, the company is also discussing the possibility of building the function into set-top boxes from U.S. phone and cable companies.
">The device, called a Quanta Video Messenger, is expected later this year and will carry a consumer-level price--which will also make it attractive to SMBs who don't want to shell out for an enterprise-class telepresence system. The Video Messenger will connect users to PCs running OoVoo's software as well as to other Messenger owners.
