AbstractThe current and future status of teleconferencing (audio, Graphics, Data and Video) is discussed in this report. The expected traffic generated in the U.S. by users of telecommunications facilities is shown. Types of usage such as business meetings, project management, telecommuting, training, education, remote medical treatment, remote consulting, remote banking, remote court proceedings and real estate proceedings are discussed. The requirements of terminal and network equipment to accommodate telecommunications usage in the forms of audio, graphics, data and video are shown. Equipment covered includes imaging equipment, audio systems, monitors, peripherals, bridges, compression/decompression, and controls. Market projections are given through 2007. This report will provide important information for equipment manufacturers and service providers as well as users.
