October 6, 2022 | Volume: 13 | Issue: 19

Mark Coxon details three overlooked design considerations in his latest piece for rAVe [PUBS]. In his column, he writes about vertical FOV, speaker placement/overlap and microphone coverage patterns. All of these considerations are important when designing a system for a conference/huddle/meeting room of any kind. Everyone wants to take their systems to the next level; thinking of design in the right way will help you.

In other news, Futuresource Consulting published an insight about the meeting room camera market. This market broke the $1 billion barrier in 2021 and according to the insight, it’s only going up from here. Check it out to learn more.

My final thoughts I’ll leave you with are for you to register to attend UCC Day of LAVNCH WEEK 6! It will be Oct. 24, and it will be from 1 p.m. to 3:15 p.m. Don’t miss some great sessions, including “How to Make Hybrid Happen.” Register here!
