The Future of Video Conferencing Communications

videoconferencing is evolving for mobile

 

Mobile and desktop video collaboration is shaping the landscape of Australian business. But many might ask, with so many recent technology developments, what does the future of video conferencing hold?

 

Collaboration through videoconferencing

As most are aware, video collaboration technology is an application similar to web meetings and conference calls, which allows participants to see each other in addition to hearing the meeting. The idea is that a significant part of the communication process is done through nonverbal ques. Video conferencing allows you gain additional intrinsic meaning from reading a person’s facial expressions and body language. To see the detail on your face allows your colleagues to see that you’re understanding what is being said and interpret your reactions more accurately.

 

In corporate settings, the concept can be applied as a way of keeping costs down, improve distance training opportunities and strengthen cross boarder partnerships.
