More Information On The Conferencing Solutions And Their Zoom Rooms Certification
The Parlé VBC 2800 conferencing bar and Vidi 280 conference room camera are equipped with dual 4K UHD ePTZ camera systems featuring AI-powered auto-framing. This intelligent tech automatically switches between cameras to capture the best possible shot.
Designed to be compact and silent, the dual-camera system includes 16x zoom, ensuring high image fidelity and sharpness, including for participants seated farther down the table in larger meeting rooms.
The Parlé VBC 2800 is designed to deliver excellent audio clarity with integrated Acoustic Echo Cancellation and advanced AI Noise Reduction, aspiring to suppress distracting background sounds.
Equipped with a 27-microphone array and Biamp Beamtracking tech, the system tracks and mixes conversations from all areas of the room, ensuring every voice is heard clearly.
The two smart speakers feature distortion compensation and dynamic bass enhancement for immersive sound, providing room-filling audio and superior speech reproduction for more effective meetings. With one-touch AI-powered Biamp Launch, the bar automatically configures and optimises audio settings based on the room’s unique acoustics, intending to ensure peak performance in any environment.
The Vidi 280 is a compact, stand-alone conferencing camera that easily mounts around a display and integrates seamlessly with Zoom Rooms. It features a built-in five-element microphone array, providing clear audio capture. For enhanced sound quality, it can be paired with the Parlé ABC 2500 conferencing audio bar in standard mounting setups or the Parlé CBC 2500 conferencing audio bar for environments with open ceilings.

What About Zoom?
Zoom is driving AI innovation in Saudi Arabia with a $75 million investment.
The investment, unveiled at the recent LEAP technology conference in Riyadh, aims to strengthen AI infrastructure, mainly through the development of data centres.
Zoom has been expanding its presence in the region, establishing a regional data centre in Saudi Arabia in 2023. The company secured authorisation to serve critical national infrastructure (CNI) organisations and collaborated with local partners to launch a co-located data centre to support its growing customer base. This new facility is expected to improve service reliability and ensure regulatory compliance, with licensing approvals currently underway.
