Codian Takes High-Definition to a Whole New Level.


Codian([R]) Will Wow Visitors at InfoComm Booth 4646 With the First Showing of 1080p and the Truly Revolutionary Codian ClearVision(TM)

ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Codian, one of the fastest growing voice and visual communications companies Communications Company is a communications unit of the United States Marine Corps. They are part of Combat Logistics Regiment 37 , 3rd Marine Logistics Group (3MLG) and III Marine Expeditionary Force (III MEF). The unit is based out of the Marine Corps Base Camp Smedley D. , continues to break new ground both on and off the InfoComm show floor.

First showing for 1080p

At this year's show, Codian is set to alter user and industry expectations through a series of groundbreaking technology demonstrations which, say the Company, take voice and video communications to a whole new level. At the heart of this claim is the Codian MCU (1) (MicroController Unit) A computer on a single chip. See microcontroller.

(2) (Multipoint Control Unit) A device that is used to moderate a videoconference of three or more end points (users at computers or groups of users
 4500 Series voice and video bridge, and the first public showing of its full capability - 1080p resolution - the definitive HD standard. As the only true high-definition bridge on the market, Codian's MCU 4500 Series already offers users crystal-clear full-motion, high-definition 720p H.264 at 30 frames per second with Continuous Presence and is only held back today by the abilities of the endpoint and network. 1080p is a realization of the Codian MCU 4500 Series' integral capacity to scale to meet the future capabilities of new HD endpoints and therefore, protects current investments.

Codian ClearVision(TM) - ingeniously transforms SD and ED

Codian ClearVision(TM) will showcase alongside 1080p, and is yet another revolutionary technological breakthrough. "Codian ClearVision will cause a paradigm shift A dramatic change in methodology or practice. It often refers to a major change in thinking and planning, which ultimately changes the way projects are implemented. For example, accessing applications and data from the Web instead of from local servers is a paradigm shift. See paradigm.  for the industry and will be of interest to the million plus group video system users throughout the world," said Mark Loney, Product Manager, Codian. Codian ClearVision is a new enhancement to the MCU 4500 Series that transforms poor quality images, from standard and enhanced-definition endpoints, into 'near' high-definition clarity. Therefore, organizations that install high-definition video This article is about high-definition video technology. For television systems, see High-definition television. For the tape format, see HDV. For compression and prerecorded media, see High-definition pre-recorded media and compression.  conference systems can now experience superior quality images consistently, no matter where or how they originate.

Universal connectivity - for the next generation of messaging systems

Codian will demonstrate how to capitalize upon the Internet for low cost communications. The Codian IP GW 3500 Series gives the freedom and cost-saving benefits of the Internet, with the ease-of-use of a telephone. It is bi-directional, connecting voice and video IP endpoints and infrastructure to and from the Internet without requiring additional infrastructure. Designed to integrate with existing systems, the Codian IP GW 3500 Series allows calls to be made by dialling a phone number, IP address, through an interactive menu or be routed by an operator.

To demonstrate the power and versatility of the IP GW 3500 Series, Codian will show how users can take advantage of Google Talk Google's instant messaging (IM) service, which provides text messaging and voice calling. It provides a link to the user's Gmail account as well as displays the number of unread messages in the inbox. , as a means for greater connectivity beyond the enterprise, reaching partners and mobile workers. "We already enable ordinary telephones, as well as video phones, to dial any IP device anywhere in the world," said Mark Loney. "The Codian IP GW 3500 Series is the gateway for universal connectivity. At InfoComm we are demonstrating integration with the next generation of messaging systems, such as Google Talk, while maintaining ease-of-use."
