Phones capable of video calls are quite useful in offices and are rarely used in households, special cases making the persons working from home or those that have relatives temporarily away in distant countries. The majority of people who don't fall in the two categories mentioned above rely on a regular phone in order to make the usual five monthly calls, as the mobile phone is the perfect tool nowadays for staying connected.

An advanced gizmo like the Ojo Vision introduced by WorldGate is an IP-based digital video phone that has all the features needed in a regular office. It doesn't run Android like we could see on other similar solutions and it instead runs on a proprietary operating system. The producers boast its large 7-inch TFT LCD screen, fully backlit and adjustable. The screen of the Ojo Vision is capable of rendering the people you will be video calling at the 800 x 480 resolution, in the 16:9 aspect ratio.

“We believe Ojo Vision is aligned with the market’s increasing appetite for high-quality, IP-based video telephony due to the proliferation of broadband services, almost complete reliance on real-time multimedia communications, and the meteoric rise of social media,” said George E. Daddis, Jr., CEO of WorldGate. “The positive user feedback we have received reinforces my position that WorldGate’s product line is industry-leading in ease of installation and best in class in video and audio call quality. As video telephony continues to gain mainstream adoption we are well positioned to take advantage of these market conditions.”

Users of the Ojo Vision will be able to adjust its bandwidth's bit rates from 80 kbps to 1 Mbps and the camera it integrates features auto focus, auto exposure and high/low light sensitivity. It can also be connected to a projector for a larger view and will gladly aid its users take part in a three-way video conference.

Though WorldGate has announced the Ojo Vision now, they say that it will be available some time in the near future.
