Active Voice Adds Visual Dimension to Messaging

Active Voice, a provider of voice mail, unified communications, and speech-activated solutions, will release VideoMail, an application that will allow users to create and deliver video messages and screen captures via e-mail, as part of its Kinesis unified messaging solution. The solution, part of the next-generation Kinesis 3.0, will be available next month.

VideoMail will also allow users to record and playback voice and video messages from their Outlook client, create a video, or record an animated screen capture. Audio files created during video capture can be accessed and played back via phone. VideoMail provides one-stop access to audio and visual video messages from one common system as users will be able to sift through messages and go directly to the ones they want to check using their e-mail-equipped devices.
