The advancements in technology have opened up the avenue for high tech video conferencing equipment that serves to ensure quality face to face meetings for people in different parts of the world. The technology is very convenient for businesses that have employees working in different cities or countries and saves a lot of travel time and expenses. Video conferencing aids in holding official meetings between the clients and team members, negotiating business dealings or even for interviewing job candidates. In recent years, the concept of Virtual Offices has been adopted which provides for a setup to allow the business owners and the employees to work from any location in the work as long as they have a laptop and internet access. Virtual offices remove the need for an expensive office space for small businesses since the virtual offices only exist in cyberspace.
While consumer services such as Google’s Hangout or Microsoft’s Skype provide video conferencing facilities for mobiles and laptops that have an embedded or external camera, most of the latest high tech equipment for video conferencing provide a number of commercial features such as screen sharing, low light sensors to auto adjust pictures, high definition streaming, crystal clear audio clarity, etc. For example, the wide angle video conferencing equipment scans and captures the entire room which falls inside a 120 degree field of view without having to zoom it.
