REDMOND, Wash., Feb. 24, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CoroWare Technologies, a subsidiary of CoroWare, Inc. (OTCBB:CROE) announced today that it has partnered with Vidyo, Inc. as a reseller of the VidyoConferencing(tm) product line. Beginning today, CoroWare is offering affordable, high-definition (HD) video conferencing solutions for enterprise customers.
The unparalleled design of the VidyoConferencing product gives companies an easy, cost-effective way of offering a high-definition multi-point video conferencing solution that can be deployed in conference rooms and on individual desktops. The resulting benefits are decreased travel expenses, increased productivity and a reduced carbon footprint. This high-quality video conferencing solution also allows greater opportunity to telecommute, which has proven benefits of employee productivity, retention, and morale.
The VidyoConferencing solution offers users an innovative high-definition teleconferencing experience built around the most recent standard-H.264 Scalable Video Coding (SVC). SVC is unique in that it enables video streaming at multiple resolutions. Vidyo's proprietary implementation of this standard uses the VidyoRouter(tm) to customize data delivery for each endpoint based on available bandwidth, CPU capability and resolutions desired, and without interrupting other participants. Participants can simultaneously use a variety of existing equipment from inexpensive microphones to high-end HD cameras.
"CoroWare understands the technology and vision behind Vidyo," said Rob Hughes, Sr. Vice President, Worldwide Sales and Support of Vidyo, Inc. "Their enthusiasm and desire to build a long-term, mutually beneficial relationship is what we look for in a partner."
Through its partnership with Vidyo, CoroWare will offer a unique combination of telepresence products and services to customers including installation and configuration that is ready-to-use.

A wide array of customers can benefit from CoroWare's telepresence solutions, including businesses focused on education, training, healthcare, product demonstration, law and finance to name a few.
"As we become more conscious of budgetary and environmental constraints, businesses are demanding higher quality telepresence solutions that can effectively reduce travel, conserve resources and enable telecommuting," said Lloyd Spencer, CEO of CoroWare Technologies. "Our reseller partnership with Vidyo will help CoroWare offer our customers the video conferencing solutions they demand."
