The inaugural Work Relationship Index shows that most knowledge workers, about two-thirds, value a company environment that enables them to work across multiple locations. By implementing technology that delivers seamless transitions for hybrid work, companies can foster engaging and productive work environments for employees and the IT teams that support them. Today, HP introduced new solutions and PC accessories that elevate hybrid experiences for immersive virtual meetings, seamless collaboration, and efficient workspaces.
Be Seen and Heard Clearly in Large Meeting Rooms with the Poly Studio Bundle
As more meetings return to the office, it’s essential to make sure everyone is seen and heard clearly for an equitable meeting experience for all participants. However, achieving this can be challenging, especially in expansive spaces. For instance, the layout of traditional conference rooms might cause some participants to be hidden. Together, HP and Zoom are harnessing the power of AI to help ensure equal participation in large meeting rooms.
The Poly Studio Bundle is specifically designed to leverage the Zoom Rooms Intelligent Director feature1 by strategically applying AI technology to create a more equitable meeting experience in large rooms. Zoom Intelligent Director is a multi-camera experience that uses two or three cameras in medium to large rooms to show optimal views of the in-room participants. This curated solution makes it easier for IT teams to purchase and deploy without the hassle of assembling components from multiple vendors.
HP is the only provider of a complete, Intelligent Director-ready solution for Zoom Rooms,[2] helping ensure a seamless and equitable meeting room experience. The Poly Studio Bundle includes three Poly Studio E70 smart cameras, a Poly TC10 controller, and an HP Mini Conferencing PC.
