Logitech announces Sight camera to make video conferencing more interactive – Times of India

Logitech has announced a new AI-powered tabletop camera called Logitech Sight. The new camera works with a front-of-room camera – Rally Bar or Rally Bar Mini – which claims to capture the best perspective of meeting participants and also track conversations as they move around the conference room. The company says that the Logitech Sight helps meeting participants more involved by offering them “at the table” experience during a meeting.
Logitech Sight: Price and availability
Logitech Sight will be available globally in mid-2023 at a price of Rs 3,37,550.
Logitech Sight: Features
The new AI camera from Logitech offers an alternative perspective by extending audio and video into larger rooms —to the Rally Bar or Rally Bar Mini camera at the front of the room. The camera comes with dual 4K sensors and seven beamforming microphones. Company claims that the Sight captures conversations and nonverbals as they naturally happen.
Logitech will also add the RightSight feature with Smart Switching later this year. The feature basically is adaptive intelligence that selects the best view between the tabletop camera and front-of-room camera.
The camera comes with integration for wide range of video conferencing platforms like Microsoft Teams, Zoom and Google Meet. The camera also works with meeting friendly layout features like Zoom Smart Gallery, Teams dynamic view and more.
Logitech Sight is easy to install with included mounts and integrated cable management. The camera supports Logitech Sync, a free software that enables device monitoring, updating, and troubleshooting from a cloud-based interface. Logitech Sight is backward compatible with Rally Bar and Rally Bar Mini, so IT teams can confidently deploy this new technology with their existing video bars.
Sight not only enhances RightSight 2 Speaker View but works alongside Scribe, Rally Bar and Rally Bar Mini.
“In the current hybrid work landscape, we no longer find ourselves confined to equal-sized video setups as we did during the peak of the pandemic. The prevalence of hybrid work has posed a new challenge of ensuring equitable experiences for all. Logitech Sight, in conjunction with Rally Bar or Rally Bar Mini, utilizes AI technology inspired by the art of filmmaking to address this challenge. By incorporating multiple camera angles and intelligent direction, Logitech aims to bring remote participants into the physical room, facilitating a more inclusive and immersive collaboration experience. With valuable insights from research and positive feedback from customers in India, Logitech is confident to have successfully tackled one of the vital issues that businesses are facing in the hybrid work era. “ stated Anand Lakshmanan, Chief on India at Logitech.
