Huntington Beach, CA, May 14, 2010 --(PR.com)-- BrightCom, the performance leader in integrated telepresence and video conferencing solutions announced today their participation with Vaughan Benz (Booth #1460), a manufacturer of custom made wood and upholstered furniture for the hospitality industry at the 2010 Hospitality Design Expo and Conference May 19th - 21st at the Sands Convention Center in Las Vegas. The partners will demonstrate how a hotel can provide services for business travelers and vacationers to use a video conferencing system from the privacy of their own room to connect with family and their offices around the world.

“We are excited be to displaying something new and innovative for the hospitality industry,” stated David Benz, President of Vaughan Benz. “By integrating telepresence and video conferencing technology into our furniture, we are hoping to combine functionality with aesthetic design giving a flawless experience for the business traveler or any traveler to connect with their family, friends or office.”

BrightCom's integrated telepresence and video conferencing enables people to connect and collaborate from a wide range of environments through HD or standard definition video, audio and data sharing. Paired with Vaughan Benz hospitality designs, BrightCom technology can offer business travelers the ability to meet and collaborate on data in real-time with co-workers, partners and customers in order to accomplish business goals on the road. At the same time, business travelers and recreational travelers are able to use the same system to call their family, friends and other guests in the hotel to share photos, itineraries and other information during their stay.

The demonstration in booth #1460 plans to show how hotels can provide their guests video conferencing services such as in-hotel, local and long distance calling or allowing guests to choose the video broadcast quality from standard to high definition.

According to Bob McCandless, CEO of BrightCom, “Telepresence and video conferencing technology has become increasingly flexible and interoperable making it a great fit for public environments and applications. As a business traveler for over 30 years, being able to instantly see family or work on a last minute presentation with my team at the office after getting back from a day at trade show or meetings would be extremely beneficial. It also circumvents having to wait for a scheduled time slot at a business center and ensures privacy.”
