AMD VISION Pro Technology Offers Responsive Visual Computing

AMD has announced VISION Pro Technology, a new commercial PC platform brand that delivers a superior visual computing experience, and can help businesses increase productivity and gain competitive advantage by enabling visually strong communications, marketing and sales materials.

Graphics matter more than ever in business communication and innovative companies are leveraging balanced PC platform technology to generate and view rich visual presentations, including videos and 3D graphics to communicate ideas. Studies show that more than 80 percent of human comprehension is gained visually and that the use of visual aids with oral presentations improves content retention as much as 6.5 times greater than using words alone. Furthermore, the increased viewing area provided by multiple monitors helps improve worker productivity by as much as 40 percent. Commercial PCs based on VISION Pro Technology from AMD offer support for multiple monitors, seamless viewing of videos, use of videoconferencing software, and the performance necessary to create and view rich presentations with embedded video and 3D graphics.

Security and Virtualisation

Security features supported by VISION Pro Technology include the Trusted Platform Module (TPM), AMD's Enhanced Virus Protection (EVP), and key Windows 7 Professional features. AMD client virtualisation technology [AMD Virtualisation (AMD-V) technology] provides the full, chip-level optimisation needed to support legacy applications under Windows XP Mode.
