Highfive: an alternative to perform AV conferences in high definition

Perfecting videoconferencing services is the goal of the Highfive solution, a cloud platform, integrated by an HD camera and audio microphones with a range of 10 metre, that can be managed from mobile terminals.

Highfive is a startup that was born two years ago to gain a foothold in the world of business videoconferencing and participate in that market that moves some 3.000 million euros per year.

Its first product is a system that incorporates an HD camera with a viewing angle of 120 Degrees, quad-core processor and four microphones that have a coverage of 10 metre. The connection to the screens is done via HDMI.

Microphones are able to detect which speaker is active, eliminating background noise, and display it on the screen for all to see.

It is a solution designed to be used both with desktop systems and with smartphones and tablets for which it has Ethernet and Bluetooth LE connection. These devices can not only be used as terminals in AV conferencing but can also be used as devices to manage the session..

And behind all this hardware is a cloud software platform., that allows conferences of up to ten simultaneous users, in its free version. There is a more advanced one that allows you to increase the number of participants but you will have to pay a monthly fee for each active user. An application that simplifies the connection process either from the computer browser or from the mobile application.

A solution with which it is possible to perform audio and video conferences in high definition, while it is possible to share the desktop and information remotely with other users and wirelessly on a screen or TV. A solution that can be used in both the business and educational environment.
