Scalable Video Coding Solutions By OmniPresence
Scalable Video Coding (SVC)
When deploying a video communications solution often times the most challenging item to address is to make sure that you have the right network infrastructure in place. There have been several ways to accomplish this including using a network provider that provides true end to end prioritization for video packets, or having a dedicated circuit for video only traffic.
Today there is another alternative for video communication. Scalable Video Coding (SVC) is an efficient system architecture for video conferencing over general purpose IP Networks. It has a very similar look to the rest of the internet – that is, the processing is being handled at the edge of the network. That means the Video encoder and decoder at the endpoints should do almost all of the processing with the media routers in the network left to do only the light weight packet operations with practically no delay. SVC also has a unique scaling characteristic. The overall benefit of this is simply better quality video over lower bandwidth.
As we've been saying for years now, "don't go there, be there…". And now with OmniPresence Scalable Video Coding Solutions, you really can meet with someone thousands of miles away and have your meeting be as effective and natural as being there.
