Beginning of this week, Nick and I were able to assist to a business meeting with some people in Amsterdam – Holland, based on the last TelePresence system from Cisco. Below a picture taken just before the conference start in Zurich.
This experience, I must say, was absolutely great! You really feel the presence (good product name ;-) of the other participants thanks to the high-quality video (1080p), the fact that the 3 screens are reproducing the real size of the participants, and because of the quality of the sound (CD quality). The oval form of the table with each half-part on each side of the table is also a good idea.
More information: cisco TelePresence 3000 (pdf).
Below another picture from cisco. You see the both parts and a presentation projection just below the table (another good idea!).
