IRVINE , Calif. - May 16, 2006 Digital Video Enterprises, Inc. (DVE)
DVE, the world’s leader in True Telepresence conferencing, announced today the launch of a revolutionary new personal conferencing product.  The Executive Telepresence System (ETS) is the culmination of more than a decade’s effort in creating the world’s best conferencing systems.  Unlike web cameras and common videophones, the ETS delivers an amazingly realistic and natural experience.  The ETS provides real-size images of people in high definition appearing to be sitting on the other side of your desk.  The patented display, included with the ETS, ingeniously hides the HD camera behind the image so that perfect eye contact can be experienced among the participants.  Legacy conferencing systems have a camera mounted to the sides which creates the impression that people are looking down, up or to the sides.  The ETS also delivers the highest quality video and audio.  Included with the Executive Telepresence System is the LifeSize Room™ high definition video communications system from LifeSize Communications.  “For years we delivered HD and DVD conferencing solutions to select customers around the globe, yet the cost to own was out of reach for nearly everyone until now.  LifeSize Room™  is a revolutionary product, delivering high definition quality at 1Mbps and better quality at any bandwidth,” stated Jeff Machtig, co-founder of DVE.

Leaders in the entertainment industry, financial sector, and healthcare have insisted upon high resolution conferencing, as well as correct human factors with optically embedded cameras in the display screens for perfect eye contact.  DVE calls this high-end videoconferencing experience True Telepresence.   “The ETS enables individuals in their office and even home office to experience True Telepresence which is as good as being there in person.  Today, thanks to the Executive Telepresence System it is a reality,” stated Dr. Steve McNelley, co-founder of DVE.  The Executive Telepresence System works the way humans work – with true eye contact, real-size images, and people on screen that actually appear to be in the same meeting space around the table or across the desk.  DVE has already closed contracts for the ETS with major multinational corporations and government entities. 

About DVE
Digital Video Enterprises is the world’s leader in True Telepresence conferencing.  Traditional videoconferencing has been proven to be a poor communication medium, because of the unnatural and awkward experience it provides.  DVE’s patented technologies have transformed the mediocrity of common videoconferencing into an experience that truly simulates being there in person.  This is achieved, in part, by optically concealed cameras behind the images on the display screens.  Coupled with next generation hardware and software that provide true DVD and HD quality images, the experience finally fulfills the promise of quality videoconferencing.  The overall experience is defined by DVE as “True Telepresence” and represents an entire new medium for human communication over a distance.  DVE’s technologies have been deployed around the globe by leaders in the entertainment industry, financial sector, healthcare, K-12, higher education, and major corporations.  For additional Information call (949) 347-9166 or visit the DVE website at www.DVEtelepresence.com.
