Rather than traveling great distances, in order to have a face-face meeting, it is now possible to teleconference instead. Telepresence brings people in remote locations together with a life-size, high resolution full motion video and high quality surround audio.
Introduction
Clipped from: Telepresence - Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaTelepresence refers to a set of technologies which allow a person to feel as if they were present, to give the appearance that they were present, or to have an effect, at a location other than their true location.
Telepresence requires that the senses of the user, or users, are provided with such stimuli as to give the feeling of being in that other location. Additionally, the user(s) may be given the ability to affect the remote location. In this case, the user's position, movements, actions, voice, etc. may be sensed, transmitted and duplicated in the remote location to bring about this effect. Therefore information may be travelling in both directions between the user and the remote location.
