Logitech Sight in LL 110

The Logitech Sight is an AI-powered tabletop camera designed to enhance hybrid meetings. It works in tandem with the Logitech Rally Bar (the large camera bar under the TV) to provide a front-and-center view of meeting participants around the table.

Some key features:

• Intelligent Framing: It uses audio and video to detect, frame, and present participants, ensuring remote attendees can see and hear everyone clearly. Note that the Sight makes use of all the microphones in the room, not just those on the Sight.

• Enhanced Meeting Experience: By capturing conversations and non-verbal cues, it makes remote participants feel more engaged and included.

This makes it a valuable tool for organizations adopting hybrid work models, aiming to create more equitable and effective meeting experiences.

Currently the Sight is only compatible with the Logitech Rally Bar (the device in Rooms LL 110 and SL 366) so that is why the Sight is located in LL 110.

When to Use the Logitech Sight

The Sight is ideal for meetings with two or more participants seated at the far end of the table, away from the TV. This is because the cameras on the Sight are designed to capture that specific area. To fully utilize the Sight's features, it's best to sit towards the far end of the table.

Disabling the Logitech Sight

You may want to disable the Sight if:

• there are not many people in your meeting

• the people in your meeting are all seated around the front half of the table (near the TV)

• If you only need the Rally Bar camera (the camera under the TV)

To disable the Sight, simply change the Zoom room Camera Control out of “Speaker Focus” using the Tablet on the table. Once your meeting has started, touch the “Camera Control” button. You can then select one of the below options:

Open

1. Manual: You can use the controls on the tablet to focus the camera yourself (Does not use the cameras on the Sight device).

2. Speaker Focus: Set this if you want to use the Sight (Does use the cameras on the Sight device). This will show the group in a single window in the bottom half of the screen, while putting those speaking in individual windows using either the cameras on the Sight or the camera on the Rally Bar (in the front of the room).

3. Auto-Framing: Makes a single view of room, focuses in on participants as group (Does not use the cameras on the Sight device).

4. Multi-Stream: Makes a window for each participant in the room (Does not use the cameras on the Sight device).

Using Logitech Sight in SL366

Logitech Sight is currently installed in LL 110, but it can also be used in SL 366. In case it needs to be used in SL 366, an IT workticket is required at least two business days before the meeting/event.

What do the two buttons on the side of the Logitech Sight do?

The two buttons on the side of the Sight are mute buttons. Pressing the button will turn the LED on the Sight red indicating that the camera is no longer active, in addition, this will mute all the room microphones. To unmute the cameras and microphones, simply press each button again and you should see the two LEDs on the Sight turn green again meaning that both cameras and all the room microphones are active again.

Troubleshooting

• There is no audio

  • Make sure that the Sight is not muted (there are two buttons, one button under each camera. Make sure the light is green above each of the buttons.

• For all other issues, please reach out to he Library IT Department for assistance.
