Unlock the Power of Microsoft Teams Facilitator with Expert AV Integration
Microsoft’s new Facilitator agent is changing the game for how Teams meetings work. With AI-powered note-taking, action items tracking, meeting summarization and live Q&A, it’s designed to help make collaboration more straightforward and effective. Yet actual magic is only present when the audio visual and network configuration beneath it is perfect. Remove decent microphones, properly positioned cameras, and a stable connection, and even the most clever AI breaks down. That’s where we come in. Together with us, we design and deploy Teams Rooms solutions that allow Facilitator to do exactly what it was intended – providing high-quality meetings with consistency, not wowing demos. The Right Foundations for Teams Facilitator To maximize the potential of Facilitator, every element of your AV infrastructure needs to be optimized. These are the variables that really count: 1. Clear Microphone Coverage Facilitator relies on good voice pickup to identify speakers and capture conversation topics. With ceiling arrays, beamforming soundbars or distributed microphones, we ensure that all voices within the room are well picked up with the correct placement, calibration and DSP tuning. 2. Smart Camera Framing Facilitator’s AI works best when it can “see” the meeting properly. Our camera configurations provide nicely balanced, context-aware framing so the AI can track individuals with ease — not just stare at faces. 3. Ready Compute & Compatibility Some of Facilitator’s more advanced capabilities depend on Microsoft Copilot licensing and hardware capability. We make sure your Teams Rooms devices have the required processing power, and recommend upgrades where necessary. 4. Stable Network & Low Latency AI-driven meetings demand quick, reliable connections. We help set up your network to provide low-latency, prioritized AV traffic and consistent bandwidth, eliminating the lag and drop-outs that ruin collaboration. 5. Data Privacy & Transparency Facilitator introduces new issues around meeting data, recordings and consent. We help you create clear storage and transparency policies, complying and building trust with internal and external participants. Our Proven Approach We don’t just put in hardware — we deploy collaborative, future-proof meeting rooms.

Wireless Sharing: Breaking Down Barriers to Creativity and Collaboration
We’ve all been there — the meeting’s about to start and everyone’s waiting while someone digs through a drawer of cables trying to find the right one. It’s not exactly the best start to a creative session. Which is why wireless sharing has been the game-changer. By doing away with cables and complicated setup, teams can go straight to sharing images and presentations and ideas, simply at the click of a button. It keeps them on the move, encourages collaboration and lets ideas flow freely. Collaboration Made Simple When everybody can share their screen live, it changes the nature of how meetings occur. Instead of having one person lead the discussion, everybody gets to play a part. It could be showing design ideas off a tablet computer, sharing information from a laptop, or just walking the team through a concept. A solution like Barco ClickShare, Mersive Solstice and Airtame makes it straightforward. They’re compatible with virtually any device, so there is no software to install, no training and no time wasted. It’s technology that works in the background, so people can focus on the ideas, not setup. Perfect for Hybrid Teams With hybrid work becoming the new reality, it is important that remote viewers are as engaged as those present. Wireless sharing solutions accompany platforms like Microsoft Teams, Zoom and Google Meet so all can see and interact with content in real-time. Pair this with the right audio visual setup, from high-quality microphones and displays to room control systems and you’ve got a workspace that makes collaboration simple, no matter where people are joining from. A Solution for Every Space Every room is different, as every team is. It could be a small huddle room, an inspiring breakout area or a large boardroom, we design wireless sharing systems that are tailor-made for your needs. We aim to keep technology simple, yet dependable and completely seamless, so meetings are easy, not stressful. Time to Go Wireless? If you’re fed up with cables and connectivity hiccups slowing down your meetings, it may be time to switch. Wireless sharing has the power to change the way your teams collaborate, connect and create.
