SightDeck Comes to Kansas City!

Anyone using telepresence systems on a regular basis knows the experience does not deliver a complete solution. SightDeck, an HD video system that allows users to interact with media, co-present with offsite presenters and record presentations now has a presence in Kansas City with SightDeck KC located in Union Station. This new, high tech product, developed by iMatte, is a fully integrated display system, camera system, compositing system, presentation system, full HD production system and broadcast studio; all in one system for one price.

SightDeck's technology will wow meeting planners in its ability to take virtual meetings to the next level in distance collaboration of all types. The technology allows up to four attendees in different locations to appear in the same room and manipulate background graphics by touch, like a gigantic iPad.

Priced at $125,000 per unit--double that if you want a second system to actually conference with, it isn't cheap, but is certainly the wave of the future.

CEO Richard Welnowski pursued bringing SightDeck to Kansas City in order to someday take full advantage of the new Google Fiber system. SightDeck KC is the first U.S. installation of the iMatte technology, Welnowski said. The product is already being used in Australia, Singapore and the United Kingdom.
