At the DEMO´08 Conference in Palm Desert, CA and Hackensack, NJ, Vidyo™, Inc., unveiled the first enterprise video conferencing products to feature HD quality video delivered over converged IP networks.

This breakthrough is delivered through a new architecture built upon VidyoTechnology™ — a revolutionary solution that leverages the recently ratified H.264/SVC (Scalable Video Coding) addition to the widely accepted H.264 standard.

HD Video Conferencing Made Possible with VidyoRouter

Taking traditional video conferencing sessions to the next level is HD Video Conferencing. HD video conferencing improves communications through better quality and cost savings.

To achieve the best quality, HD video conferencing provider Vidyo (News - Alert), offers VidyoRouter, an extremely scalable technology that supports up to 100 HD and offers rate matching, voice activated or continuous presence participants on a single VidyoRouter.

The VidyoRouter is at the heart of the company's VidyoConferencing system, and most importantly allows encoding and decoding to occur only at the endpoints, unlike traditional video conferencing systems. With this, only the videorouting is accomplished within the network itself.

To help ensure participants in each session receive the best quality experience, the VidyoRouter also helps to achieve better network utilization efficiency and considers limitations in bandwidth, processing power, or screen resolution, then only sends as many packets as an endpoint is capable of handling. This also changes according to conditions throughout the session.

High quality capabilities allow HD Video conferencing sessions to take place that is free of blurry images and broken pictures.

According to the company, "The VidyoRouter doesn’t decode and encode the video, yet it provides rate matching, error localization and supports composite layouts just like a traditional MCU."
