Today’s corporate environments demand that communications within global organizations be maintained at the highest level. HaiVision’s engineers deliver systems that reach the highest levels of performance and reliability. As a result, our systems are now at the heart of telepresence suites within the world’s foremost global organizations.

Videoconferencing and networking technologies have matured significantly, making TRUE-TO-LIFE video communication a reality. So why compromise? If the goal is true, natural interaction, unfettered by technology, what is needed today are direct windows into distance worlds. HaiVision’s technology has been field-proven to provide such windows.

HaiVision solutions are basic – true, audio visual connections, used to link distant environments together as easily as if they were adjacent rooms. There is no need to endure the ubiquitous videoconference “quad-split”, or huge reductions in quality when introducing auxiliary content (computer output). Content and remote participants are always given full attention – without compromise.

HaiVision’s hai1000™ series is a high performance carrier grade encoder decoder system that supports up to 10 encode decode channels within a single IP appliance. Such flexibility is ideally suited to the multi-camera multi-display environment of telepresence and in addressing other performance communication systems where real time and persuasive interaction between facilities is critical. The MAKO-HD™ is the latest codec option for the hai1000™ providing H.264 high definition (HD). The MAKO-HD™ supports up to 1080p and achieves an astonishing end to end latency of less than 70 milliseconds. The MAKO-HD™ can also encode RGBHV computer content at up to 1280x768 resolution at full frame rate.

The hai1000™ brings the highly efficient MPEG-4 AVC / H.264 standard to unsurpassed levels. It is equally capable delivering “talking head” content at DVD quality with video bit rates as low as 700 kbps (making the hai1000™ ideal for installations over standard T1 connections) and for more rigorous video applications, the hai1000™ supports HD bit rates as high as 10 Mbps. Audio quality is perfect – supporting bit rates up to 256 kbps with guaranteed video synchronization.

With H.264 / MPEG-4 AVC, clients achieve bandwidth savings of over 50% over MPEG-2. With the MAKO-HD™ technology, many are taking advantage of H.264 to commission HD communications using the same bandwidth budget that was previously applied to SD. Remarkably, the MAKO-HD™ technology delivers on such efficiency at twice the speed of previous codecs - driving latency out of communication systems.
