How many times have you attended a meeting and experienced one or more of these situations?
- A presenter is fumbling to figure out how to get the presentation projected on the conference room display.
- The lights are too bright for a presentation or dim enough to put everyone to sleep.
- The Nevada desert sun is streaming in through a window, with no easy way to moderate it.
- You are holding a conference call with another group and are constantly asking them to repeat what they said.
- The conference room air conditioning is too cold, or it’s too hot. The thermostat is nowhere in sight.
Meetings are a significant investment in time. Conference room technology that wastes time costs your organization real money and lost productivity.

Audio and Video
If you’ve got older technology in your meeting room, you may not have the tools for effective collaboration. You might need a display with higher resolution to make presentations easier to read, especially with smaller text fonts. Either a projector or a flat panel with 4K resolution would be ideal for presentations, videos, and videoconferencing and screen sharing. A projector screen can be automated to lower or rise automatically as the projector is enabled.
On the audio side, you want to ensure your teams are not straining to be heard on a call, whether it's audio-only or a video call. Several microphone solutions can solve the problem based on room size and layout. Individual microphones can be arrayed across the conference table, either built-in or movable. For a less cluttered approach, microphone arrays can be embedded in the ceiling or in the center of the boardroom table. These arrays can pick up voices from all around the room using sophisticated digital signal processing. For clear sound in your room, you can install in-wall or in-ceiling speakers for full sound throughout or tabletop speakers in smaller rooms. Soundbars mounted under conference room displays, complete with long-range microphones and video cameras, are also an option in some spaces.
Light, Lighting, and Comfort
Consider upgrading your room with modern LED lighting solutions. LED fixtures are precisely dimmable to create the perfect lighting environment for any time of day. LED lighting can also backlight screens and light floors and other areas indirectly to create a comfortable, layered lighting environment for a presentation that is neither too dim nor too bright.
To control and harness natural light in a windowed room, consider installing motorized shading. Motorized, automated shading offers many advantages for comfort and energy efficiency. Light and heat sensors can automatically lower shades to control the sun. For presentations that require a dimmer room, a one-touch scene can be set that coordinates lighting, shades, the display, and even the temperature in the room.
Controlling it All
Boardrooms and conference rooms can get complicated with the variety of equipment. Rather than having too many disparate systems to manage in a meeting, consolidate control and add customized automation to make meetings go smoothly. Control systems can manage AV control, motorized screens, motorized shades, and the room HVAC system to create the right environment. For easier collaboration, your control system can be set up for one-touch start of a videoconference, audioconference, presentation, or any other type of gathering. Modern room conferencing systems also offer wireless device connections from laptops, tablets, and smartphones to make it easier to share information with a group in the room or over a videoconference from whatever devices your teams use.
