In collaboration with Microsoft, Jabra is introducing new updates to its PanaCast 50 video bar, including Microsoft IntelliFrame with multiple video streams, as well as face and voice recognition functionality.
These new features aid Microsoft’s next-generation AI tools, including intelligent meeting recap in Teams Premium to revolutionise meeting experiences.
The PanaCast 50 will be one of the first intelligent front-of-the-room Teams Rooms on Windows video bar to enable Microsoft IntelliFrame with multiple video streams.
Additionally, with Teams’ voice recognition capabilities, the PanaCast 50 allows in-room participants to maintain their identity in the meeting transcript, aiding AI based productivity tools.
In addition, a new multiple video stream functionality enables remote users in the Teams meeting to have a better view of who is in the meeting room with three video streams: the first stream is the current speaker, the second stream is for the previous speaker, and the third stream is the full panoramic room view of the meeting room or space, so no individual is excluded.
Aurangzeb Khan, senior vice president of intelligent vision systems at Jabra, explained, “We are always looking for ways to harness the power of cutting-edge AI technologies to revolutionise hybrid and remote meetings.
“This is why we are thrilled to introduce these new PanaCast 50 capabilities for collaboration with Microsoft Teams. These features are set to give professionals immediate productivity benefits, helping them better navigate the hybrid working era seamlessly, online and offline.”
An upcoming face recognition functionality will allow in room participants – upon authorisation with individual enrollment – to display their names to remote users and populate the meeting room roster.
