Abstract :
Imagine a teleconferencing system that´s so realistic, so natural, that you feel you could reach out and shake a participant´s hand, even though the individual may be sitting in a room hundreds or even thousands of miles away. That´s the idea behind telepresence, an emerging teleconferencing technology that´s designed to not only connect people together but to make them feel like they´re all collaborating together inside the same room.
