Video Conferencing Camera
Meeting Owl Pro
This video conferencing hardware unites a camera, microphone and speaker in one device. Situated at the centre of a table, Meeting Owl Pro uses vision and voice recognition to shift the camera to focus and zoom in on who is speaking. Thanks to the panorama view of the high-resolution 360-degree camera, the participants can keep an eye on the entire room. In combination with the smart audio recording and playback components, this gives the users the feeling of sitting in one room together. Automatic updates keep the device up to speed.
Statement by the Jury
Meeting Owl Pro is a sophisticated all-in-one device which creates a feeling of togetherness and camaraderie even across great distances.
