Logitech Sight
Logitech Sight is an AI-powered tabletop camera designed for medium to large meeting rooms, providing multiparticipant framing to remote attendees. Working alongside Logitech’s front-of-room conference cameras, it intelligently switches between devices to capture the best perspective and track conversations as they happen in real time, essentially giving remote employees a seat at the table. With collaboration now happening anywhere, Sight ensures an equitable experience for remote employees, allowing them to stay engaged with what’s happening in the room and contribute just as easily as in person, making sure hybrid meetings are as productive as possible.
Sight has been designed to promote meeting equity for all participants, making virtual collaboration more inclusive and provide a seamless hybrid working experience.
