INTERVIEW WITH THE LOGITECH CONFERENCECAM
Video
conferencing for small groups has arrived.
Today, companies are eager to leverage the benefits of video conferencing. And globalization is prompting them to move from single large teams to smaller widely dispersed teams. But a gap exists for those who want an affordable small group solution.
Until now. The first-ever ConferenceCam speaks out.
Q: How did you get your start?
A: I looked around and saw my opportunity. Big room systems are booked for large groups. And huddling around a PC webcam is highly ineffective for small groups.
Q: Tell us your secret for getting small groups to collaborate?
A: I combine a pan, tilt and zoom 1080p
HD video camera with a brilliantly clear full-duplex speakerphone for PC or Mac video calls. I m simple to use and work with Microsoft® Lync!", Skype!" and most other video conferencing applications.
So small groups can run their own video conferences.
Q: Where do you do your best work?
A: Small meeting rooms, individual offices,
common spaces, anywhere small groups meet. I work on virtually any video platform. No proprietary and expensive systems to set up.
Q: So what s next?
Q: What s your mission?
A: Well, 3 out of 4 video conferences today are multi-person oriented.1 And by 2015, 66 million users will be video-enabled.2 It s clear I need to make small groups seen and heard
at an extremely affordable price.
