Google has revealed new additions to its Meet-certified hardware line-up.
The two new devices, which are manufactured by Avocor, are part of the Google Meet Series One portfolio.
The Desk 27 and Board 65 are 27 inches and 65 inches respectively, are both designed to improve the inclusivity of meetings in the age of hybrid work, with most meetings likely to have a combination of in-office and remote participants.
Dave Citron, Director of Product Management for Google Meet and Meet hardware, said: "The best video and collaboration experiences bring together Google Meet and Meet hardware—accelerating overall productivity.
"Google Workspace users logged more than 1 trillion video minutes in 2020 and the number of Google Meet video users continues to grow, so we are pleased to work with Avocor to bring exciting new hardware options to our customers”
“We partnered with Avocor to give Google Workspace customers access to one of the best collaboration-first interactive touchscreen technologies on the market. We're excited to introduce these new Google Meet Series One solutions with Avocor to help Google Workspace customers to get more done."
Priced at $1,999, the Desk 27 is a personal device that can double up as a desk monitor, laptop docking station and virtual whiteboard. Google said it will work well in home offices and hotdesking environments.
The larger Board 65 is designed for team collaboration and can be mounted on a wall or purpose-built mobile stand. It is priced at $6,999.
Google said that both devices are optimised for Meet and Workspace, but are also compatible with other collaboration applications.
