Sight Compatibility and Certification Information

In this article, you will find current video conferencing platform certification, compatibility and feature information for Logitech Sight.

For information about Sight Smart Switching and Dual Sight Support, visit here.

Logitech Sight is meant to work with a front-of-room camera to add an additional, center-of-room perspective to follow conversations between speakers, capture contextual in-room activity, and auto-frame participants for the best experience. Starting from CollabOS 1.15, dual Sight “daisy chain” deployments are also supported as a Beta.

For more details on how this experience comes to life in modes like Speaker View, Grid View, and Smart Switching, read below to get details based on video deployment and platform.

Speaker View

Speaker View uses audio and video AI to capture the in-room conversation, framing and focusing on active or recently active speakers.  Logitech Sight improves Speaker View by including views from both the Sight and the front of room camera.

Default experience

By default, Rally Bar and Rally Bar Mini output a single, composited stream with up to 4 active speakers as captured by Sight along with a Picture in Picture view, captured by Rally Bar or Rally Bar Mini, that shows a Group View of all those in the meeting room.

Smart Switching

Smart Switching uses AI to automatically switch cameras based on which way the talker is facing. As those in the room speak to each other, they are typically framed by Sight. When they face the front of the room to speak to someone on the far end, Rally Bar will typically frame them.

Note: Smart Switching is available for Sight connected to a Rally Bar or Rally Bar Mini running CollabOS 1.13 or higher. For more details, see here.

Sight with Rally Mic Pods

A single Logitech Sight + Rally Bar system can be deployed with up to three (3) additional Rally Mic Pods.  A single Logitech Sight + Rally Bar Mini system can be deployed with up to two (2) additional Rally Mic Pods.

Dual Sight deployment

“Daisy chaining” or Dual Sight support, introduced as a Beta feature in CollabOS 1.15, makes it possible to connect two (2) Sight cameras via a CAT6A SFTP/SSTP shielded cable to a Rally Bar or Rally Bar Mini to extend coverage for longer tables or larger rooms.  Learn more about deploying dual Sight daisy chaining.  Up to two (2) Rally Mic Pods are supported with a Rally Bar in a dual Sight deployment.  Up to one (2) Rally Mic Pods are supported with a Rally Bar Mini in a dual Sight deployment.

Camera Zone

When Sight is attached, Camera Zone settings are applied to Rally Bar and Rally Bar Mini. These settings do not currently apply to Sight feeds. For more information about Camera Zone, please see here.
