PREMIUM UC SOLUTIONS FROM HUDDLY & MERSIVE

Smart AV technology allows meetings to start on time, with the equipment using built-in software to take the pressure off manually setting up your meeting space technology. Our premium UC solutions from Huddly and Mersive utilise Solstice Conference to offer seamless integration with existing meeting room technology, calendar and conferencing services to enable a one-step meeting start.

Often installed meeting room cameras capture the whole room regardless of if the room is at full occupancy or not. For a more professional look attendees need to manually set the camera frame and are then limited on movement. Smart cameras, like Huddly IQ, use AI to enable ‘Genius Framing’. This software is intuitive and can adjust the shot to smoothly reframe the meeting as an attendee leaves or joins. The AI technology can also count the number of attendees in a meeting. As well as delivering dynamic light optimisation to improve the lighting conditions of any meeting space.

Previously behaviour analytics in AV technology was feared and seen as unwanted spyware, however, the pandemic has forced employees to revaluate their viewpoint on this technology and it is now being used to form ‘welfare technology’. Analytic technology helps maintain hygiene levels in office buildings. Desk sensors, facial counts, temperature scanners, etc. are no longer viewed as big brother gathering information, instead they are seen to help ensure buildings are safe. Face count technology in meeting spaces helps to identify how many people are in a room and whether it is at a safe occupancy level. Huddly cameras paired with Mersive Solstice can also be enabled as occupancy counters, and metrics such as peak and average hourly occupancy can be viewed using Solstice Cloud Analytics.

This technology will also be used to help inform building managers on how meeting spaces are used, analytics will show if a large board room is regularly being used by only a few employees.

Decisions can be made to divide rooms into smaller meeting spaces that better fit the needs of the employees.

Historic conferencing systems solely focused on audio conferencing only, whilst this is an important aspect of hybrid and video meetings, attendees need to be seen and heard. Upgrading your camera adds another dimension to your hybrid and virtual meetings, it’s important that both video and audio is clear, so that meetings both look and sound professional. Don’t forget to pair your conference camera with a professional speaker and microphone.

Top Tip: Invest in brands that have partnered to create meeting solutions that work together. This will minimise any issues you have pairing the devices or getting them to connect to the meeting software. Huddly cameras and Yamaha microphonespeaker systems pair together to make premium meeting room kits.

Combining smart cameras with wireless collaboration solutions ensure that meetings not only look good, but that they are actually productive. Everyone, both onsite and remote meeting attendees can share content and new agnostic solutions eliminate barriers created from users bringing different branded devices, transforming BYOD into BYOM.

Hybrid meetings should be as productive, if not more, than virtual meetings. Businesses cannot afford to regress when they return to the office. Employees have gotten used to circling elements of the screen with their mouse and seeing attendees’ reactions, even when someone has shared their screen.

The collaboration solutions offered by Huddly and Mersive bridge the gap between in-person and virtual meetings with hybrid meetings. Mersive’s wireless annotation tool, Solstice Ink enables users to highlight and mark-up content displayed in room, then share with remote participants using Solstice Conference to agnostically bridge the conferencing service of their choice.
