VIDEO AS A SERVICE · VAAS

What is Video as a Service (VaaS)?

Video as a Service (VaaS) is a delivery model in which video conferencing capabilities are outsourced to a managed service provider and delivered over an IP network.

A managed VaaS approach can combine cloud video communication, equipment and specialist technical support. Teleportel extends remote video into physical service environments such as virtual reception, 2D and 3D kiosks, document and passport workflows, visitor badges and intelligent parcel lockers.

WHAT IS VAAS?

Video conferencing delivered as a managed service over an IP network

In the supplied definition, Video as a Service outsources video conferencing capabilities to a managed service provider. Instead of treating video communication only as equipment owned and operated internally, the service can be delivered and supported through an IP-based managed environment.

01

Video service

Video communication capabilities are delivered as an ongoing service rather than only as standalone equipment.

02

IP delivery

The communication service is delivered over an IP network so participants and endpoints can connect remotely.

03

Managed operation

A managed service provider can take responsibility for parts of the conferencing environment and its operation.

04

Technical support

The source describes a fully managed VaaS product as including equipment and specialist technical support.

CLOUD VIDEO CONFERENCING

Make different devices work together through the service

The supplied content highlights transcoding as part of a VaaS approach: devices can be adapted through the service so different endpoints are able to communicate with one another.

For a business, the larger question is not simply where the video platform runs. It is what the remote connection needs to accomplish for employees, visitors or customers.

VAAS + PHYSICAL SERVICE

Teleportel brings managed remote video into the customer-facing environment

Cloud video can connect people. Teleportel can place that remote human connection at a reception desk, visitor kiosk or other physical service point where the user may also need to complete a practical task.

Remote receptionist

A receptionist or specialist can serve visitors from another office or location through live face-to-face video.

Dedicated endpoint

A purpose-built touchscreen kiosk provides a consistent physical endpoint for the managed remote service.

Assisted workflow

The remote interaction can be combined with compatible peripherals for documents, identity, badges and other transactions.

BY SECTOR

Visitor experiences for different environments

Reception requirements vary by location. Digital visitor management can support the way guests, patients, contractors and other visitors arrive in different environments.

HOLOGRAPHICAL REALITY™

Why the In-Wall™ feels different from a conventional video screen

Teleportel's patented 3D Holographical Reality™ is designed around presence rather than simply displaying a remote video feed. The receptionist appears life-sized and in 3D, with aligned eye contact, while the camera and screen remain outside the visitor's view.

The effect is intentionally different from ordinary 2D displays and from consumer “3D TV” concepts that require goggles. No glasses are needed. The objective is an immersive, authentic interaction in which the person on the other side feels much closer to being in the same room.

The sound is also positioned so that it seems to come from the person rather than from an obvious loudspeaker, reinforcing the overall sense of presence.

Compatible scanning equipment can support remotely assisted document workflows.

02

Passport & ID scanning

Identification peripherals can support visitor and customer processes requiring identity information.

03
