Audio and video can make or break the hybrid classroom experience. Crystal-clear sound and views will make your hybrid session seamless, collaborative and engaging for everyone.

High-quality audio is vital for:

comprehension of complex topics
effective collaboration across media
understanding remote and onsite peers
ensuring a seamless equitable learning environment
providing the same level of understanding and participation to all involved.

A consistent, high-definition video experience will:

convey the sense of a shared, unified experience
support in-depth collaboration and productivity
aid participants to feel and present their best, at home or onsite.
ensure equal visibility for both onsite and remote participants

Our partner integrators from Vistacom, concur:

Cameras and microphones are probably the biggest contributor to better hybrid learning. It is possible to deliver a rich experience while keeping the investment to a minimum if we focus on key areas such as audio and proper camera placement.
