Advance technology
Intelligent Zoom utilizes face detection technology to detect all visible faces. It maps out the first face from the left and last face to the right of the frame. The mapping system computes the visible face information to compute the minimal zone and adjusts the field of view accordingly, capturing new participants and including all participants in the room.
IZ follows the natural human instinct to include all participants in a conversation, increasing business productivity. It allows participants to spend time on their meeting topics instead of making the technology work. It also improves participants’ engagement in the conversation.
Unique value proposition
Traditional electro-mechanical PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) cameras can cause disruption in meetings due to their delay and distraction, and often require a person to control their movement. Intelligent Zoom, by contrast, automatically and dynamically zooms in or out to include all participants in the conversation, quietly and unobtrusively.
IZ lets meeting participants focus on the meeting discussion without being distracted or slowed down by technology. Since the PanaCast 2 camera system is able to track movement electronically, the adjustment is natural and unobtrusive, with no mechanical movement.
System configuration
Intelligent Zoom is an innovative technology delivered as a software product that improves business productivity through high quality, natural video collaboration. It runs within the PanaCast 2 camera system, which works with all existing video collaboration solutions, and does not require users to install any special drivers or applications.
