The army uses digital communication technology to connect with their family members in real time. Communication technology popularly includes teleconferencing, audio teleconferencing, web conferencing and telepresence. These latest technologies are increasingly used by government and other organizations to seek the replacement of costly and time-consuming travel. Thus, advance technologies paved a much simpler way of carrying out face-to-face meetings or interactions from various cities, countries or even continents.

For years, soldiers stationed far from home have relied on letters, packages and occasional phone calls to stay in touch with their loved ones. But, now-a-days, with the help of video conferencing and web conferencing solution, telepresence system has emerged as a powerful communicating and collaborating tool to link up the military personnel with their loved ones and family members.

Polycom telepresence have emerged as an essential element of Operation Military Connect. It includes virtual family photos, re-enlistment, and perhaps even a military wedding. It refers to a set of technologies which allows a user to interact with another user. It facilitates a live and real place to have an effect of their true location. Additionally, the user of telepresence systems is able to affect the remote location. In this case, the user's position, movements, actions, voice, etc. may be sensed transmitted and duplicated in the remote location to bring about this effect. Therefore, the information may travel in between the user and the remote location.

For any video conferencing equipment or telepresence system, there are three essential sub systems. Firstly, it includes the home site technology which interfaces to the user. Secondly, the communication link which interfaces to the home site. Thirdly, the remote site technology which interfaces with the communication link and possibly a remote site human. Thus, these together experiences of being complete presence at a live real world location remote from one's own physical location.

The advanced technologies of telepresence and virtual reality are two of the manifestations emerging from our new information age. Thus, this intelligent system give entirely, a new concept to the military personnel for better interaction and communication.
