Lifesize and Radvision hook up soldiers, NFL stars via HD videoconferencing
The Navy's not the only one getting a special taste of the Super Bowl, the U.S. Army is teaming with LifeSize and Radvision to let NFL legends send real time greetings to soldiers at Fort Lewis, Washington. The video calls will use Lifesize's HD videoconferencing technology and Radvision's networking to let the stars and troops feel as though they're in the same rom , despite being many miles apart. We haven't checked our maps, but hopefully Fort Washington's got the necessary OTA coverage and/or necessary cable/satellite agreements to make sure they get the game in HD too.
