BERLIN, September 3 /PRNewswire/ --

- Affordable upgrade kit and set-top-phone empowering consumers and SMEs
to do Full/True HD Video Conferencing with their existing PC and TV screens

faceVsion Technology Inc., a market innovator in enabling HD video
communications for consumers and SMEs, announced today the availability of
upgrade kits for PC users to power up their computers for two-way HD
(720p/1080p) video communications over open broadband networks. The company
will be showcasing in IFA a comprehensive range of products allowing HD video
calls conducted through XMPP, SIP, and direct IP-to-IP connections.

Video conferencing ought to be a natural extension of the way people
normally work and communicate. It should deliver true-to-life HD experience
with no big upfront investment, and not be limited by the endpoints/hardware
performance, ease-of-use, networking and infrastructure issues associated
with traditional conferencing solutions and desktop conferencing solutions.
faceVsion has thus made available a highly interoperable and flexible upgrade
kit, the FVexpress(TM) family, for consumer and SMEs to utilize their
existing desktops/notebooks/netbooks for HD video conferencing.

The upgrade kit has two options: FVexpress(TM) combo for true HD video
call, and FVexpress(TM) pro for full HD video conferencing and ripping. While
both options come with a wide variety of 720p webcam choice, a H.264
encoding/decoding Express34 card, and QuLives(TM) Manager (the reference
software client) and able to deliver 720p 30fps video call over 800kbps
bandwidth requirement, FVexpress(TM) pro has a highly flexible architecture
allowing users to plug-in any mainstream HD camcorders and use them as
professional pan-tilt-zoom camera for full HD (1080i/p) video conferencing
under 2Mbps network. Furthermore, QuLives(TM) users can now interoperate with
Google video chat users through public internet, allowing them to conduct
intra- and inter-company video communications anytime they want with their
PCs.

"Breaking down all barriers together with our partners to empower
consumers and SMEs to benefit from HD video communication is where faceVsion
stands for," said Alex Huang, CEO of faceVsion. "We will continue to work
with companies like Google to deliver best-in-class interoperable video
communications solutions."

"We're excited to see faceVsion bringing HD video chat to everyday PCs,"
said Justin Uberti, technical lead for Google video chat. "We've used open
standards that make it easy for partners like faceVsion to interoperate with
Google video chat and deliver a true HD video experience."

Other than the FVexpress(TM) upgrade kits, faceVsion offers FVfone(TM)
(an easy-to-use set-top-phone for HD video communications over big TV
screens) as well as TwinCam(TM) (UVC webcams embedded with H.264 AVC encoding
capability) and QuLives(TM) SDK for ASP/solution providers to quickly extend
HD video communications experience to their PC-based offerings. For more
