Jabra And Microsoft
Technology giants Jabra and Microsoft announced their combined influence on an innovative collaborative solution as the first of its kind in the market. This innovation is the implementation of the Microsoft device ecosystem platform on the Jabra PanaCast 50 Video Bar System.
This innovation was created to address Microsoft’s mission. Their mission is to develop virtual room security designed for shared spaces and optimised for Microsoft Teams. As an Android video bar, the PanaCast 50 is suitable for meeting rooms, that are small, medium, and large.
The Jabra 50 PanaCast was innovated and presented as the first Microsoft Teams Room for Android product on the platform in the market. The platform offers the security, reliability, management, and deployment synonymous which Microsoft. Subsequently, the diversity of hardware and support from Jabra and Android allows for more customisation and freedom on the part of the manufacturer.
Jabra PanaCast 50
The hardware of the Jabra PanaCast makes the device the perfect host for the pioneer of this new platform with an integrated solution. The integrated QualComm SoC (System on Chip) is an ergonomic operating system provider and has the possibility of being upgraded to the latest Microsoft operating system.
The 13 MP cameras offer vivid imagery and vibrant pictures. The 4K resolution ensures spectacular image quality. Its exceptionally wide 180° viewing angle and 6x digital zoom allows the sight of all participants regardless of the size or layout of the conference room.
The camera also makes use of auto-framing and auto-tracking technology. This technology allows the adjustment of framing based on the amount or position of the participants in the room. It also focuses the camera upon the speaker through voice detection.
The native audio capacities are exceptional as well. The array of beamforming microphones ensures a flawless communication exchange. The speakers capture and output audio perfectly without vibrations or echoes. As a result, fluid conversations are offered through your video conferencing solution without the need for external equipment.
Beyond Basic Hardware
Artificial Intelligence is another aspect of this innovative solution. Chiefly, the video and audio based AI technology will detect all the participants and active speakers encompassed by the wide covering 180° camera. These previously mentioned simple quality of life adjustments will vastly improve your remote experience. Thus making it less monotonous and more dynamic.
The solution also contains a 10.1” touch controller to navigate the physical experience and offers you increased options to manage your meetings.
The Project: Jabra and Microsoft
This collaboration between two leaders in their respective industries, Jabra and Microsoft, facilitates a project that is effectively contributed towards by each party and their specialities. Microsoft contributes to this project particularly with its size, magnitude, platforms, security, and superior organised structure. Jabra synergises with these capabilities by offering pioneering video and hardware capabilities. Jabra also offer flexibility and choice with the components they provide.
The Platform
Firstly, the platforms directive is to provide security and protection and enabling secure device identification and configuration. The platform also allows for more control over the security of devices from management to deployment to analytics. The further encryption and control by leveraging this platform allows a sense of certainty and monitoring over the assets. The platform also offers a wide range of features that make it simple for businesses to manage their devices.
The platform can also facilitate video capture of up to 64 MP. Thus this can allow video resolution of up to 8K on the platform. Overall, the platform aims to achieve protection, dependability, and high performance.
Future-Proof
The Jabra PanaCast 50 can adapt to the evolution of Unified Communications to ensure flexibility to accommodate the meeting room of choice. Its AI software platform ensures the compatibility of the device with various meeting software. It is also optimised for most major video conferencing platforms to ensure the most convenient experience.
Hybrid workers can effortlessly move between on-site and remote work since they have access to and control over their work devices from any physical location. The Microsoft device ecosystem platform also makes it simple for hybrid workers to deploy and manage their work devices. This helps them stay connected and provide better results.
Additionally, the MDEP provides a selection of device management tools so that hybrid workers can quickly configure, maintain, and keep an eye on their devices. As a result, this keeps their devices secure and up to date. Ultimately, regardless of their physical location, the Microsoft Device Ecosystem Platform gives hybrid workers the tools and services they need to maximise their productivity and communicate successfully.
Superior Simplicity
Despite the innovative collaboration, the solution is not difficult to set up. Both the hardware and software offer non-complicated installations. With necessary equipment already integrated, there is no need to bother with unnecessary external additions. Subsequently, the intuitive design and interface permit simple navigation and use from the start.
Consequently, the PanaCast Control allows for quick one touch initiating and joining. The absence of any additional devices allows for simple, secure and scalable deployment in any meeting room.
Jabra and Microsoft
The titular collaboration between Jabra and Microsoft was essential for the creation of a technology where the Microsoft device ecosystem platform was native. As shown above, this integration is an interesting development opportunity for businesses that wish to upgrade their security, protection, and monitoring ability. The innovation also has the user’s experience in consideration to facilitate a sense of confidence and security, especially with the high quality advanced software of the Jabra PanaCast 50.
