Challenges
1. The client's office is too large, surrounded by glass, and has a high floor height.
The minimalist approach to furniture and an abundance of open space contribute to strong overall sound reflection and heavy reverberation issues. To ensure optimal sound quality and effective communication within this space, there is a pressing need for high-quality pickup and sound amplification equipment. This equipment must be capable of mitigating the adverse acoustic effects of the room's open layout and glass surfaces, creating an environment conducive to clear and uninterrupted discussions, presentations, and meetings.
2. New equipment needs to support existing conferencing platform
In the client's office space, they have implemented the MAXHUB+OPS module as their cloud video conferencing platform, which operates in conjunction with the Shenzhou Video Pro software. To ensure seamless compatibility and effective communication, any pickup and sound amplification equipment chosen for the meeting room must be fully supportive of the conference software that is already installed and in use. This integration ensures a smooth and efficient conferencing experience for all participants in the meeting room.

Nearity provides the combination of the A50 ceiling array microphone and V415 4K PTZ conference camera as the solution.
