VidyoMobile requires a Vidyo account through your enterprise or third-party Vidyo service provider. VidyoMobile delivers up to full HD business grade point-to-point and multipoint video conferencing to your iPad, iPod or iPhone device when connected to your enterprise or service provider’s Vidyo infrastructure. Experience telepresence quality conferencing with shared content viewing on the move with VidyoMobile. The same low latency, reliable high quality video experience that is delivered to high-end room systems and desktops is extended to your iOS devices. Your mobile device can connect seamlessly with VidyoDesktops, VidyoRooms, and legacy H.323 and SIP-based endpoints through the VidyoGateway. Unreliable wireless networks have traditionally posed challenges for video conferencing. Vidyo’s patented Adaptive Video Layering technology is the difference between VidyoMobile’s reliable video interaction at the pace of conversation, and the broken pictures and unnatural delays of traditional video conferencing solutions. Through this technology, video streams are dynamically optimized to provide the best quality video based on both the capabilities of the mobile device and the performance of the wireless network. The VidyoMobile app is simple to install and use. VidyoMobile users have full control over their layout and can choose which participants they want to view and can dynamically change between portrait and landscape orientations as well as preferred speaker and continuous presence modes. Since multiple participants can share data in the conference at the same time, VidyoMobile offers a content dock where shared data may be previewed and selected or returned to the dock and hidden off screen, all with common iOS gesture controls.
