How new smart cameras look to transform virtual conferences, remote work

Norwegian technology company, Huddly has unveiled its latest innovation, the Huddly® Multi-Camera Experience, that is touted to be a game-changer in remote meetings.

The in-room Google Meet hardware supports adaptive framing with multiple intelligent cameras from Huddly, said Ilya Brown, the Vice President, Product Management at Google Cloud.

“These use active speaker tracking to automatically frame people as they speak and capture attendee responses so that everyone can be seen clearly and feel included,” Brown explained during a session titled, “What’s next in productivity and hybrid work” at the the Google Cloud Next 2022.

The Huddly® Multi-Camera Experience brings the meeting to life for people joining remotely. The outcome is a better and more collaborative environment that improves the flow and quality of the conversation.

“We’re pleased to work with Huddly® to bring advanced camera technology and multi-camera solutions to Google Meet Series One room kits. With increasing adoption of hybrid work, it’s important that everyone in the virtual meeting can have a full appreciation for what’s going on in the conference room,” stated Dave Citron, Director of Product, Voice & Video, Google Workspace previously.

Headquartered in Oslo, Huddly combines expertise across the fields of design, hardware, software, and artificial intelligence to create innovative products for everyone who uses video to collaborate.

The tech company’s smart cameras are designed to make it easier and better for people to communicate with each other.
