of HD video communication products for consumers
and business today announced general availability

for an unparalleled video chatting experience
so real, it’s like being there.
The FVexpress Combo includes a compact
faceVsion FV TouchCam™ L1 HD video camera
with a wide-angle 28mm up to 75 degree field-of-view
lens and advanced auto-focus/auto-brightness
control and is the recipient of the 2010
iF Design Award. The kit also includes an
FVexpress card which slides into a laptop’s
Express34 or mini PCIe card slot and provides
on-board hardware H.264 encoding of the
HD video stream before being transmitted
over the Internet. The included QuLives
communication manager software application
works seamlessly with Google Talk to manage
HD video chatting sessions including importing
of Google Talk contacts, recording chat
sessions, and more.
“Friends and family can easily stay in
touch with 2-way life-like HD video chatting.
Businesses can get more done with HD video
calls while saving money on travel” said
Ping Liu, President of faceVsion Technology
