Yealink Launches 360-Degree Teams Camera – SmartVision 60

In mid-October, Yealink hosted it’s annual event, Microsoft Ignite, for industry professionals and developers worldwide.

One of the most impressive takeaways was the brand-new artificial intelligence-powered 360-degree, all-in-one camera, SmartVision 60.

According to new McKinsey survey, 90% of organizations will be adopting a hybrid work model in the post-pandemic future of work. In light of this situation, a growing number of companies are considering how to ensure that all attendees can have the same experience in a hybrid meeting, even if they are not onsite. Yealink’s SmartVision 60 solves the problem that remote attendees of hybrid meetings often encounter – not being able to see or hear properly, and generally feeling disconnected from what’s going on. Instead, it ensures no one is left out.

With the 360-degree coverage and center-of-the-table perspective, no one in the meeting will be hidden from view. What’s more, the all-new 10K resolution camera delivers stunning images, with more detail than ever before.

Seamlessly compatible with Microsoft Teams, the Multi-Stream People Feed feature creates individual video feeds of four in-room active speakers and stitches them together, showing the panoramic view of the room at the same time. The feature enables everyone at the conference table to appear front and center on the screen crystal-clear. No facial expressions and body language will be ignored again even in a hybrid meeting. Every conversation can be vivid and immersive.

With two sets of multi-functional microphones, the SmartVision 60 easily covers a 20-foot (6m) audio pickup radius from all angles in medium rooms. In addition to this, it supports AI features including Cortana voice assistant and automatic speech-to-text live transcription, with speakers identified by their names.
