Boom Collaboration has launched a new meeting room in a box video kit for large rooms.

The new kit features an intelligent videobar, expandable mics and one-cable connection hub – designed to simplify installations and capitalise on demand for bring your own device (BYOD) deployments.

The BYOD Large Videobar Kit, which is available in black or white, includes the HALO videobar, two mics and the ZYGO multi-connectivity hub. 

“In recent years the video conferencing market has been a rollercoaster ride offering two distinct ways forward – with dedicated in-room systems on the up, whilst bring your own device alternatives seemed to be heading down, particularly for many larger organisations,” said Boom Collaboration co-founder Fredrik Hörnkvist.

“But wider industry analysis mirrors our own findings that the use of individual devices is taking over. From our conversations, sales and interest from around the world, it's an 80/20 split. BYOD is back with a bang with plug-and-play simplicity, lower costs and a platform agnostic approach some of the main driving forces.”

The HALO videobar comes with ultra HD 4K performance, a wide angle 120° field of view, AI auto-framing and speaker-tracking, 10x ePTZ, six digital array mics and the option of up to eight additional expandable mics.

Boom Collaboration co-founder, Holli Hulett, said, “The pandemic created a shift towards more agile, plug-and-play systems, where users wanted to use their own devices without relying on permanent room systems. There’s more personalisation too such as when screen sharing.”
