    WHY TELEPRESENCE???
    Increasing Globalization and new virtualized way of working,

    means people all across the globe must collaborate more closely than ever.
    In todays world tele-meeting is very important because it saves

    time and travel cost.

    Introduction
    Telepresence 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. The users may be given the ability to affect the remote location.
    The users position, movement, vision etc are sensed,

    transmitted and duplicated at the remote location to bring about this effect.

    History
    The first commercially successful telepresence company,

    Teleport (which was later changed to TeleSuite), was founded in 1993 by David Allen and Harold Williams. David Allen eventually purchased all of the assets of TeleSuite and then called the new company Destiny Conferencing. The idea did not truly catch on until other megacorporations jumped onboard such as Polycom, HP, and Cisco released similar systems around the mid 2000's. Polycom eventually bought out Destiny Conferencing and now carries the TeleSuite telepresence system now known as the Real Presence Experience

    Implementation
    To provide a telepresence experience, technologies are required

    that implement the human sensory elements of vision, sound, and manipulation. TelePresence technology, codecs, cameras, lighting arrays, microphones, speakers, and endpoints that consist of one or more plasma screens. The participants may share gaze awareness with real human in the physical environment.

    The participant can also experience a 3D virtual environment in

    IVE,(Immersive Virtual Environment) . Standard 720p and 1080p high-definition cameras. Optimized environmental conditioning to provide the best audio and video and overall user experience.

    Vision
    A minimum system usually includes visual feedback. The

    entire field of view of the user is filled with a view of the remote location, and the viewpoint corresponds to the movement and orientation of the user's head. The movements of the user's head must be sensed, and the camera must mimic those movements accurately and in real time(motion detection). The user may be provided with either a very large screen, or small displays(Stereoscopy) mounted directly in front of the eyes. H.264 standard is used for video compression.

    Sound
    Sound is generally the easiest sensation to implement with

    high fidelity.
    It is based on the foundational telephone technology

    dating back more than 130 years.


    Very high-fidelity sound equipment has also been

    available for a considerable period of time, with stereophonic sound.

    Network
    TelePresence uses the standard IP technology deployed in

    corporations today and runs on an integrated voice, video, and data network
    The system supports high-quality, real-time voice and video

    communications with branch offices using broadband connections


    It offers capabilities for ensuring quality of service (QoS),

    security, reliability, and high availability for high-bandwidth applications such as video, particularly high-definition video, which can require 1 Mbps to 5 Mbps, depending on the resolution.

    Manipulation
    The ability to manipulate a remote object or environment is an

    important aspect of real telepresence systems.


    It can be implemented in large number of ways depending on

    the needs of the user.


    The movements of the user's hands (position in space, and

    posture of the fingers) are sensed by wired gloves or inertial sensors and a robot in a remote location copies these movements as closely as possible. This is called Teleoperation.

    Applications
    Telepresence can be used for a variety of applications 1)Teleconferencing:

    Rather than traveling great distances, in order to have a face-face meeting, it is now possible to teleconference instead, using a multiway video phone.

    2)REMOTE SURGERY:

    The possibility of being able to project the knowledge and the physical skill of a surgeon over long distances has many attractions. Thus, again there is considerable research underway in the subject.

    3) SUBSEA WORK:

    The cost of deep water diving operations is extremely high due to safety regulations, hyperbaric equipment, time spent in decompression, and support vessel costs. Telepresence systems for inspection and teleoperation for repair and maintenance would realize significant cost benefits and also remove divers from hazardous environments. 4) HAZARDOUS ENVIRONMENTS: Many other applications in situations where humans are exposed to hazardous situations are readily recognized as suitable candidates for telepresence. Mining, bomb disposal, military operations, rescue of victims from fire, toxic atmospheres, or even hostage situations, are some examples.
    5)Telepresence also finds use in different fields like education,

    entertainment, AI etc.

    Comparison with video conferencing


    The TelePresence Meeting solution is based on an entirely

    new technology, one that goes far beyond video conferencing in many important ways.
    The main advantages of using telepresence over video

    conferencing are 1. Quality and Environment factors. 2. Simplicity. 3. Reliability.

    Issues in video conferencing


    1.

    Eye Contact

    2.
    3. 4. 5.

    Appearance Consciousness
    Perceived lack of interoperability Bandwidth and quality of service Expense of commercial systems

    Benefits of Telepresence
    Reduce distance as a constraint to deploying expertise

    Build trust, understanding, and relationships across

    distances Develop new business models for sales, support and supply chain Speed time to market and enable faster decision making Help their organizations to become "green" Remote interviewing and HR benefits support Face to face customer service and support

    CONCLUSION
    The Tele presence Technology overcomes almost all the disadvantages or drawbacks that the video conferencing systems have. The broad vision for Tele Presence is to provide "virtual experiences" in many environments, from business into the home, with applications that would not have otherwise been possible with traditional video technologies. Imagine a face-to-face doctor's appointment, a shopping trip, or a visit between the kids and grandparents without leaving the office or even your home. Tele presence brings such an amazing technology, that would be a revolution in face-to-face conferencing.
