Actis launches 'VC On-Demand'

Mumbai: Actis Technologies has launched a mobile video-conferencing solution-Actis MVU series (MVU-1000P, MVU-1100MP, MVU-2000MP and MVU-2100MP). These videoconferencing systems are mounted on a trolley with castors, and allow businesses and institutions a lot of flexibility.

The MVU series videoconferencing trolley offers 1,080p at 30-frames per-second, viewing experience and includes an integrated display (single or dual monitors), camera, codec, mike and speakers in the unit. Preconfigured to make Videoconferencing calls within minutes (has ISDN and IP support); the MVU series is extremely cost-effective because of the greater bandwidth flexibility it offers and its adherence to open standards. Ideal screen height enables excellent eye-contact between participants and a powerful remote driven interface makes operation extremely intuitive.

The Actis MVU series is targeted at the tele-presence and video conferencing industry which is fast becoming a powerful business tool in India. While the global industry is poised to grow into a $4.7 billion by 2014, Asia Pacific is expected to contribute $1.7 billion, a recent Frost & Sullivan report revealed.

Commenting on the launch, Abhimanyu Gupta, Director, Actis Technologies said, “At Actis we keep our customers' business needs at the top of our priorities. Several clients wanted more flexibility from their video conferencing systems, hence we addressed this by designing a mobile system that delivers quality, flexibility, seamless collaboration and ease-of-use.”

The Actis MVU series will benefit enterprises with organizational and sales teams across locations in applications such as customer interaction, recruitment interviews, internal reviews, cross-location training, etc. It is also suitable for educational institutions where it allows sharing of one system between multiple rooms. Expected to hit the market this September, the new MVUs will be priced in the range of Rs 7 lakh and Rs 14 lakh.
