RealityVision ScreencastTM Central to Major Version Update of Mobile Video and
Data Sharing Technology
HERNDON, Va.--(Business Wire)--
Reality Mobile LLC today announced version 2.5 of its RealityVision® product,
offering governments and businesses a host of new features for mobile video and
data sharing. With RealityVision Screencast, support for BlackBerry devices and
support for Microsoft`s Virtual Earth mapping display, RealityVision continues
to change the way mobile technology is used for situational awareness. 

"The enhancements in RealityVision 2.5 continue to make the platform
exponentially more powerful for organizations that need to streamline
communications processes between field personnel, office staff and senior
management," said David Kramer, CEO of Reality Mobile. "With RealityVision
Screencast, an organization can capture critical information appearing on a
computer screen and share it instantly and securely with its dispersed personnel
without any intervention of their part." 

Among other features, RealityVision 2.5 includes: 

RealityVision Mobile for BlackBerry Devices. RealityVision now supports many
BlackBerry devices-including the Bold, the Curve, and the World Edition-and
gives BlackBerry users the ability to:

* Automatically receive live video streams and other tailored data such as
alerts, still photos, maps and schematics. 
* Automatically report their GPS position into the RealityVision system. 
* Independently access any live video source being created through the
RealityVision system, including any Screencast. 
* Independently control the available pan-tilt-zoom controls of designated fixed
or mobile network cameras. 
* Initiate a one-button silent alert for immediate attention. The device will
automatically dial a predetermined phone number in speakerphone mode to allow
for an immediate conversation with the appropriate personnel.

RealityVision Screencast. Define any portion of a PC screen and dynamically
stream its contents as a live video source to any RealityVision user. Multiple
screencast selection boxes can be created and repositioned on a single manned or
unmanned PC screen. 

Support for Microsoft Virtual Earth. The RealityVision management console
operator can now leverage Microsoft Virtual Earth 2D or 3D to visualize all
tracked personnel and video sources. Other display options include Google Earth
and Google Maps, or the organization can integrate its own customized display. 

Marquee Customers and Events

The company also announced that Consolidated Edison of New York, one of the
nation's largest investor-owned energy companies, has completed a successful
field trial and has become a RealityVision customer. "The Reality Mobile system
is a major tool in keeping Con Edison's customers and employees safe," said
Corporate Security Technical Manager, Dominic Grassi at Consolidated Edison.
Corporate Security Senior Specialist, Artie Claudio added, "The company
recognizes it as a valuable communication system between field employees and
control room supervisors." 

Many other organizations rely on RealityVision to meet their operational
requirements, including the U.S. Defense Department, the U.S. Department of
Homeland Security, the U.S. State Department, state and local police
departments, a U.K. law enforcement agency, and other Fortune 500 companies.
RealityVision has also been successfully deployed at many major public events
for security and protection purposes, including the 2009 South Boston St.
Patrick`s Day Parade, the 2009 Academy Awards, President Obama`s Inauguration
Festivities, the 2008 Democratic and Republican Conventions and the 2008 Papal
Visit to Washington D.C. 

RealityVision has performed successfully in mission critical operations at every
level: from its use by field personnel, to headquarters staff, to management, to
independent experts. Since 2007, RealityVision has been the subject of an
ongoing research program dubbed "Operation RealEyes" at the Department of
Homeland Security. The research program has proceeded in a phased crawl/walk/run
approach, and RealityVision continues to excel at every phase. As noted in the
DHS Privacy Impact Assessment for the RealEyes Project, "The greatest benefit of
the [RealityVision] system is the ability to quickly share information among
team members regardless of location. This capability may be leveraged in a
variety of ways including remote identification of suspicious objects and as a
situational awareness application during an emergency situation." 

New Resellers

The company also welcomes its newest RealityVision resellers-Haverfield
Aviation, SSI Knowledge Center and The Wireless Authority.
