Poly Unveils New Video Conferencing For Smarter Hybrid Meetings

Poly (NYSE: POLY) today announced the addition of the Poly Studio X70 and Poly Studio E70 to its family of video conferencing solutions at Zoomtopia 2021. The Poly Studio family is designed to upgrade the video collaboration experience and create meeting equality for all participants, whether in the office or dialing in remotely.

The lineup of Poly Studio video conferencing gear brings broadcast-quality video to every meeting, regardless of the participants' location, so you can be seen and heard clearly. The Poly Studio X70 and Poly Studio E70 feature Poly Director AI technology, which includes Acoustic Fence, and NoiseBlockAI, giving your meeting the feel of a real live broadcast quality production with your own in-room director.

Poly DirectorAI is the brain behind Poly's cutting-edge video experiences. It uses AI and machine learning technology to deliver real-time automatic transitions, framing, and tracking that make everyone feel like they are in the room together. Poly DirectorAI perfects the hybrid working experience by seamlessly connecting those in the meeting room to those joining remotely.

The Poly Studio E70 intelligent camera is Zoom-certified, and the Poly Studio X70 video bar is expected to be certified by December 2021. Both solutions will support Zoom Rooms Smart Gallery to bring meeting equality to medium and large rooms. Zoom Rooms Smart Gallery will use AI to create a gallery view, and send up to three unique video streams to frame-up in-room participants to remote attendees, to make sure everyone gets the face-to-face communication they crave.

"Having the best possible Zoom experience requires getting the best possible gear for your team's home office and meeting rooms," said Jeff Smith, Head of Zoom Rooms. "Poly’s pro-grade video conferencing devices and personal solutions are designed to deliver an equitable meeting for everyone by enabling features like Zoom Smart Gallery view to ensure everyone has their own virtual seat at the “table”.”

"At Poly we are committed to delivering a broadcast-quality experience through our video-conferencing gear. By incorporating film production rules and AI capabilities, we are bringing meeting equality to participants in every style of the room, regardless of their location”, said Ankur Goel, Managing Director for Poly India & SAARC. He added, “We are excited to launch the Poly Studio E70 and X70 as we navigate through the return to the office and the future of hybrid working”.
