This was an impressive facility that occupies an enormous footprint. They have over 3,900 engineers and researchers employed in 15 sites over 3 continents. We were shown a variety of new technologies that are being developed the highlight being live conferencing where people are able to communicate real time with realistic sound quality and imaging.
