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.

FREE VS PAID

Free or paid conference calls?

A free conference call service can be perfectly suitable when you only need to bring a few people together from time to time. It keeps things simple and lets you get started without adding another expense.

Once online meetings become part of everyday business, priorities may change. You may need more meeting control, greater capacity, connections with other business tools or support when something goes wrong.

The right service is therefore not simply the one that is free. It is the one that fits your day-to-day communication needs and can keep up as those needs change.

  • Participant capacity
  • Business integrations
  • Technical support
  • Audio and video quality
  • Simple participant access

EXTERNAL VIDEO COMMUNICATION

Connect with people outside your organization

Video communication is not only useful for meetings between colleagues. Businesses can also use it to stay in touch with customers, suppliers, partners and visitors.

When video communication is available directly through a website, people can connect without having to install additional software or learn a new platform. This can make it easier to start a conversation when someone needs help or wants to speak to the right person.

  • Remote reception
  • Customer support
  • Online consultations
  • Visitor assistance

EVERYDAY BUSINESS COMMUNICATION

Conference calls are part of a wider communication workflow

Businesses increasingly use a mix of email, messaging, video calls and online reception depending on who they need to reach and how they want to communicate.

Internal communication

Video calls can help teams work together when employees are based in different offices or remote locations.

External communication

Website-based video can connect customers, suppliers, partners or visitors directly with an employee.

Personal communication

Video provides a more personal way to communicate without requiring everyone to be physically present in the same place.

3D HOLOGRAPHIC DISPLAY

What is a holographic display?

The term “holographic display” commonly describes a system that creates the impression that a person, product or 3D content appears in physical space rather than on a flat screen. Several technologies exist, but not all of them provide genuine remote human interaction.

3D

Life-size presence

A remote person can appear life-size and in three dimensions within the visitor’s environment.

LIVE

A real person, live

It is not limited to an avatar: a real person can be transmitted live and interact in real time.

EYE

Aligned eye contact

Teleportel Agent Workstations are designed to enable aligned eye contact, creating an interaction closer to a face-to-face conversation.

Holographical Reality™ is not based on traditional holography. Teleportel uses proprietary technology to create a natural sense of 3D presence without glasses or a headset.

BENEFITS

Why choose 3D presence instead of a conventional video screen?

Life-size presence

Human scale brings the experience closer to an in-person encounter.

3D perception

The person is visually integrated into the space rather than confined to a video window.

Contact visuel

Communication designed to support naturally aligned eye contact.

Nothing to wear

No VR headset or 3D glasses are required for the visitor.

Live communication

A real person can see, hear and assist the other person remotely.

Discreet technology

The screen and camera can be concealed so the interaction remains the focus.

Business processes

3D presence can be connected to reception and service operations.

Human-centric approach

Digitize services without turning every interaction into an impersonal exchange with a machine.

3D presence + real person + real time + eye contact + interaction + business processes. This combination distinguishes a professional presence solution from a simple display system.

VIDEO

Video communication for customers and visitors

Business video communication can extend beyond conference rooms and scheduled online meetings. Video can give customers or visitors a direct way to contact an employee through a company website or another digital touchpoint.

This can support remote customer service, virtual reception, consultations and other situations where an organization wants to provide personal assistance to someone outside the company.

HOLOGRAPHICAL REALITY™

Much more than a holographic effect

The objective is not simply to create a “wow” effect, but to make remote human interaction feel more natural.

A person can be in another city, another building or another country and still speak, listen, answer questions and assist a visitor in real time.
