What are the characteristics of "teleconferencing" and "conference TV"?

We've heard a lot about the term "teleconference". This kind of meeting, which is called by telephone, is usually organized through a manual switchboard, and appropriate services are provided to make it happen. However, have you ever wondered if you could organize it yourself without a switchboard? And when you feel the need for a meeting, you can quickly call a meeting at any time? I'm afraid that this is some enterprises and companies of the factory managers, as well as the head of the administrative department of the dream of it.

Because of the program-controlled switchboard, this ideal has become a reality. When you need to convene a meeting, you can press a certain prescribed Jian on your program-controlled telephone, indicating that you want to convene a meeting. Then you can dial the phone numbers of the people who need to attend the meeting. After the phone are connected, you can begin to speak, others can also speak casually, an urgent matter can be done in such a meeting to be resolved. Of course, to make your program-controlled telephone with the function of convening a meeting, you have to go to the telecommunications department to complete the relevant procedures. This convene a meeting of the function of the current technical factors, there are limitations on the number of people, that is, you can only call four people to participate in the meeting. But that's usually enough for the core staff of an organization.

Let's expand our thinking a bit more. Wouldn't it be quite appropriate to use this new feature of telephony for private catch-ups, over-the-air reunions of family members, congratulatory gatherings among friends, and so on?

When it comes to meetings, we can't help but think of scenes like this: in the same conference room, one person is making a report, and everyone is listening; or everyone is discussing and expressing their own views.

A few years ago, the emergence of teleconferencing, can only hear their voices, do not see their people, can not give people a sense of presence.

Now, the development of high-tech and conference TV, it is undoubtedly the new star of the telecommunications business.

Maybe some people feel strange, conference TV is what it is like?

The so-called conference TV is a kind of image communication method that uses communication lines to connect conference rooms in two or more locations to hold a conference by TV, which can transmit images, sounds and documents in real time. Conference TV between two locations is known as point-to-point conference TV; conference TV between multiple locations is known as multipoint conference TV.

The main feature of the conference TV is the image of the participants in the conference room, as well as the meeting of the information, charts, objects and other visible images, can be displayed on the TV screen in other conference rooms; speakers speakers' voices, but also by other conference rooms in the speakers out.

In this way, living in different places and even miles away from the participants, you can meet on the screen, hear the sound and see the shadow, as sitting together at the meeting in general.

It can be said that the conference TV basically realize all the functions needed to sit together in the meeting, can replace the on-site meeting.

Currently, the world's conference TV are using digital transmission, and the International Telecommunication Union has formed a unified standard format for international conference TV.

Usually, in human interaction, the effectiveness of communication 53% to 60% depends on the face-to-face inspection effect, 33% to 38% depends on the speaker's voice, only 7% or so depends on the content of the speech, and the conference TV is exactly a visually oriented communication business. The use of conference TV communication, both to achieve the purpose of participating in meetings, but also to avoid the pain of traveling to the field, thus saving time and cost, but also to ease the status quo of transportation tension.

For example, an hour-long international conference TV service between Japan and the United States, with a total cost of less than 500,000 yen for both sides, allows six people to participate directly in the meeting and about 15 people to listen in. In the case of a business trip, 500,000 yen is not enough to pay for one's travel expenses.

As you can see, conference TV plays an important role in buying time, conveying information in a timely manner, and saving money.
