Bringing Intelligent Director to Appliance Zoom Rooms with Rally Bar and Sight

In today’s meeting, seamless and engaging face-to-face conversations are essential. That’s why we are excited to announce the first and only certified intelligent director solution for appliance-based Zoom Rooms! With Logitech Rally Bar and Sight, Logitech together with Zoom are delivering a more immersive meeting experience for remote participants.

What Is Logitech Sight?

Sight is a companion camera designed to work alongside Rally Bar or Rally Bar Mini to give remote participants a front-and-center experience during video conference meetings. 

Today, when "Speaker Focus" mode is selected in a Zoom Room, Sight—positioned at the center of the table—captures in-room conversations as they happen across the table, with a view of the room displayed at the bottom of the tile.

Then, as participants turn toward the front of the room, individual people’s tiles switch from Sight to Rally Bar. We call this Smart Switching—and it ensures remote participants always get a consistent, front-facing view of in-room participants. 

Zoom’s Intelligent Director with Rally Bar and Sight

Now, starting with CollabOS 1.14, when intelligent director mode is selected in a Zoom Room, the individual participants and the contextual room view are split into two separate tiles. This larger, independent room view enlarges the details and allows remote participants to rearrange both individual tiles to curate an experience that works for them. Additionally, Admins can set this as the default camera mode for these rooms.

What’s Next: Dual Sight Coverage

With CollabOS 1.15, we’re taking things up a notch, enabling IT teams to daisy-chain one Sight device to another-allowing up to two Sight devices in a room for expanded coverage. This will bring three distinct video feeds to the intelligent director experience: two capturing individuals around the table and one providing a room-wide view. The result—greater coverage and more individual representation.

Intelligent director with Rally Bar and Sight is now available for Zoom Rooms on CollabOS 1.14 or later.
