Telepresence and Holography / Holograms - November 2008
Editor’s viewpoint on their differences, likenesses and future...
We all just recently viewed an historic CNN holographic interview on an historic Election Night. CNN stated this type of imaging has never been done before on National TV and I believe that. I haven’t seen anything like it. The live interview caught me by surprise and sure had the “wow” factor attached to it didn’t it? Here’s a link to the actual interview.
CNN Hologram Video
The question now has to be asked. Is it Telepresence?
I’m no expert on the subject but I’m going to throw my hat into the ring, go out on a limb and say yes, I believe it is. Although I know many video conferencing purists are rolling their eyes and grabbing their guns right about now with my statement.
While I do know that Telepresence still hasn’t been universally defined (Houston, we have a problem), here’s how I see it…. Broken down to its simplest form - “tele” (through electronic means) and “presence” (present). This is how I’m justifying my opinion by lumping holography and Telepresence together. Just as Telepresence is surely an offshoot of video conferencing, holographic imaging (like we viewed on CNN) surely has to be considered an offshoot of Telepresence. The interviewer was “telepresent” from Chicago and beamed into the CNN Election Headquarters. She was most assuredly - “telepresent”. There was negligible latency, the imaging was fantastic and both interviewers were rehearsed on what they would say. I’ve just recently read that CNN actually “downgraded” the experience to make it “movie” quality and not as good as it could have been. Maybe they thought us mere mortals would be shocked if they showed their complete hand. I have a feeling it was so big to them, they didn’t want it to get upstaged by the historic election. I’m willing to bet we’ll see the “true” power of this technology in the upcoming weeks and months when they can put the pedal to the medal and show it off without having it sidetracked.
What an amazing time for this technology (all differences and opinions aside). Telepresence Doctors, nurses, teachers, schools and healthcare (healthpresence) will benefit from the recent gains in this state-of-the-art industry whether holograms, Telepresence or holography. Airlines also have to see the threat to a portion of their business travel. Hell, who wants go through security and fly to Miami for a two-hour conference when you can look them in the eye via Telepresence?
Beam me up Scotty! Simply amazing…!

Encinitas, CA (PRWEB) January 24, 2008 -- FreedomVOICE Systems, a licensed telecommunications carrier specializing in virtual office solutions, has developed a new agent opportunity for its Hosted VoIP PBX (www.freedomiq.com) service, FreedomIQ.
"We see FreedomIQ as the future of telecommunications," says agent Jason Silvis of Telepathy Networks, LLC. "Before we found FreedomVOICE Systems, we had explored several other vendors to find a PBX to complement our other voice and data services. No other compensation plan or product could match what FreedomVOICE has to offer. FreedomIQ has become our primary product."
According to FreedomVOICE Systems officials, agents receive commissions for initial and ongoing revenue based on a tiered structure:
- 20% commission for direct sales.
- 10% commission for sales made by recruited agents.
- 3% commission for sales made by recruited agents of recruited agents.
Silvis believes one of the greatest benefits of selling FreedomIQ is how easy it is to demonstrate the product to potential clients.
"We can bring the phones to a presentation, plug them into an Ethernet connection, and take calls on them immediately," says Silvis. "Compared to the complex wiring involved with a traditional PBX (www.freedomiq.com) phone system, that's incredible. The flexibility of FreedomIQ is amazing for closing a sale."
In addition to this advantage, Silvis enjoys the streamlined ordering process and back-end support FreedomVOICE Systems offers.
"With other products, we had to order equipment for a single client from multiple companies. We were on our own to put the pieces together and make it work," Silvis remarks. "FreedomVOICE Systems makes it easy on us. We place a single order for all of the FreedomIQ equipment, and then have FreedomVOICE technical support to help ensure the client's PBX is configured exactly the way they want. It cuts our installation times in half."
Sameer Datoo of Strategic Onsite Solutions, Inc., has found that FreedomIQ opens doors for his other telecommunication (www.freedomiq.com) services.
"FreedomIQ allows us to offer a more complete office package," says Datoo. "When clients see the cost savings and flexibility that comes with using the product, it builds a strong trust relationship. This makes them more open to other IT services we offer, like networking and web design."
Datoo has worked as a telecommunication (www.freedomiq.com) agent for another Hosted VoIP PBX provider, but sees FreedomIQ as a superior product.
"When I became a FreedomIQ agent, I moved several of our existing clients onto the service and they immediately noticed a drastic improvement in the clarity of phone calls. For VoIP technology, that makes a huge difference," claims Datoo. "FreedomIQ also has features that other Hosted VoIP PBX products lack, like the ability to listen to live calls and view advanced call reporting online. Without these features, it's hard to convince clients that you have the best product on the market."
Eric Thomas, CEO and President of FreedomVOICE Systems, says he developed the agent program for FreedomIQ to bring the system's benefits to more small businesses.
"FreedomVOICE was established with the goal of providing services to help small businesses grow," says Thomas. "I see FreedomIQ as the solution to the daunting investment of a premise-based PBX. These systems are costly and difficult or impossible to scale. Small business owners end up overpaying in the hope that they will eventually grow and make full use of the hardware. For this reason, there's a need for a more cost-effective, scalable solution. With the FreedomIQ agent program, we're enlisting the help of others to better reach this vast market and show small businesses the alternative they've been missing."
Interested parties can learn more about the FreedomIQ and its agent program by contacting FreedomVOICE System Channel Sales Manager Peter Burinskas at 800-477-1477 ext. 821, or by sending an email to peter@freedomvoice.com.
