Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) has been factored into the latest innovations to Google Meet, according to an Avocor exec.
Speaking at Barcelona ISE, Dana Carey, SVP at Avocor, told UC Today that credit should go to Google for recognising the number of devices that will need to connect to company communication systems and working to include them.
From a device hardware perspective, Google's partner Avocor produces single cables for audio, 4k video, Ethernet, and power which can easily connect to a BYOD device.
Carey said: "We are working with Google on the equity side. We are trying to bring the quality experience to the device hardware, combine it with this software and deliver that experience."
"You will see in the coming months these products are incredible. The quality of audio and video experience, the true voice integration, the integration of Google Meet, of course, interact with other platforms, and a single cable for BYOD."
Mark Ewing, Group Product Manager at Google, said it has been busy making hybrid work innovations over the last two years. These changes include over 100 features such as chat, polls, and Q&A.
Ewing feels that although most people can now return to the office, it is not like before. Hybrid work has become the new normal, and he says Google is investing heavily in the versatility of hardware with its series one line.
A couple of devices he thinks compliment hybrid working are Red Dot award winners: Desk 27 and Board 65. These are all-in-one devices with touch screens and whiteboarding functionality built-in.
