Polycom RealPresence Group 500

Vibrant video collaboration for group conferences in an easy to use and sleek design

The Polycom RealPresence Group 500 solution is perfect for conference rooms and any other collaborative situations, right from compact and small meeting rooms to larger rooms with multiple screens. Energized audio and video performance and an interactive content collaboration drive users closer together and fetch meaningful conversation for geographically scattered teams. The compact and sleek design is effortlessly hidden out of sight, keeping your rooms free from disturbances.

Effectively collaborating and sharing content across incongruent teams is highly critical. There are multiple ways to share and collaborate, letting each team use the approach most suited to their needs and style, with the Polycom RealPresence Group 500 solution. From whiteboarding-annotating to sharing the programs and applications on a desktop or tablet–all devices included as a part of a cohesive and collaborative video session.

Conference rooms come in all sizes and shapes, but it is important to give away a great experience for all the participants, irrespective of the room size. The Polycom RealPresence Group 500 solution affords various options ensuring that all the participants can see and be seen, no matter where they sit.

Polycom EagleEye Producer uses pioneering facial-tracking systems to frame precisely all room participants, or simply focus on the person who speaks, whichever you prefer, disregarding the “bowling alley” view which is often faced in video calls
For an intricate feel, Polycom EagleEye Director II comes with the top performance speaker tracking experience, projecting the body language for higher impact and better productive video collaboration
The Polycom EagleEye IV camera offers extraordinary visual clarity, 12x or 4x zoom and an optional wide-angle lens adapter, allowing you to capture everyone clearly even in odd-shaped rooms
For compact rooms, the Polycom EagleEye Acoustic camera consumes less than a minute to mount on a flat-panel display and offers excellent 1080p image quality

Use the optional inbuilt multipoint to host your video calls with up to 6 participants especially in HD quality. Additional support for dual monitors aids the participants of the meeting to see everything with better clarity with greater impact. For a protective solution, Polycom RealPresence Medialign product line carries the industry’s best video collaboration with an innovative, modern strategy that deploys anywhere in a few minutes.
