With the Sony PCS-1S, video conferencing encompasses much more than video. Now you can also share documents, spreadsheets, still and moving images, multimedia files—virtually anything that's stored in your computer, written on a whiteboard—or even sitting in the room in front of you. This enables participants to focus on and consider a subject of discussion in less time than it would take a staff member to hand out physical materials in person.

Another unique advantage of the Sony PCS-1S is the optional PCS-DSB1 Data Solutions Box, which enables you to transmit computer screen shots to remote sites. Other video conferencing systems may claim to support data collaboration, but the PCS-DSB1 offers some valuable exclusive features:
