Amid the rise of hybrid work and the requirement of social distancing, more and more companies began to rethink the design of offices, in particular, revamping their meeting room spaces.
The mix of conferencing present and remote attendees makes the revamping job even harder. Over the past two years, businesses have had to overcome audio and video quality problems, network capability limitations, as well as fatigue and make sure employees are engaged in the meeting they attend.
These problems can still plague companies today, which means that there is a demand for an all-in-one solution that combines a camera, speaker, microphone, operation system and screen mirroring in one device.
That is where the Kandao Meeting Series comes in. Considering different sizes of conference space, there are four products tailored for different requirements.
Meeting S
Kandao Meeting S has been designed for small-sized meeting rooms. Being settled on one side of the room, it only shows half of the conference room with its 180-degree camera.
Alongside the camera, the Kandao Meeting S solution has a Full-Duplex audio system built in so that there is no need for other external devices to carry out meetings. The audio system contains an eight-microphone array and Hi-Fi speaker for quality sound pickup, accurate beamforming, noise reduction and echo cancellation.
Using Meeting S, employees can join and participate in high-quality meetings, whether in a small conference room or remote location, with a built-in operating system there is no need for any other devices or software to enjoy high-quality collaboration.
360° Meeting Solutions
On top of the solution designed for small meeting rooms, Kandao also boasts two more 360° all-in-one conferencing solutions, the Kandao Meeting and Kandao Meeting Pro, designed for medium-size and large-size rooms.
The Kandao Meeting solutions are a 360° video conferencing camera, designed for large rooms where participants are having a discussion around a table as well as in remote locations.
With a 360 ̊ camera there are no blind spots, and the solutions utilise Kandao’s own Artificial Intelligence Algorithms for smart focusing and tracking. This technology has led the Kandao Meeting Pro to win a CES Innovation Award last year.
Utilising the 360-degree lens, Omni-directional audio system, Hi-Fi Speaker, and built-in android system, Kandao Meeting solutions can provide multiple conferencing modes for different meeting requirements. These include discussion, presentation, and custom modes depending on the type of meeting that is being carried out.
With a built-in Android system, the video conferencing software can be installed directly on the device, and updated easily, so meetings can be started efficiently. On top of this, there is a range of connection methods to use Meeting cameras, including WiFi, USB A, HDMI, and Ethernet, and Kandao Meeting solutions support both 1080P and 720P output, while H.264 and MJPEG as the encoding format.
