AI-powered smart meeting rooms

Hi there!

Have you heard of smart meeting rooms? These are powerful rooms utilized by many corporates which incorporate the power of artificial intelligence. These rooms can be primarily used for AI-based video meetings as well as video conferences.

Video communication is the most widely used channel for communication after voice chat, email and unified messaging platforms. The demand for video collaboration is on the uprise, compared to traditional video conferencing.

Effective video conferencing is powered with the help of Artificial Intelligence and as offices are evolving, so is the need for collaborative technology. This market is supposed to rise and grow by 20% for the year 2022 and reach a market value of $22 billion dollars.

So how is AI transforming video conferencing?

Some of the major advantages of using advanced AI which can dramatically improve the overall user experience. This can help to drive efficiencies in an incremental manner, with the help of automated time-consuming collaboration tasks.

The major areas where AI can help to drive innovation are:

  • NLP (Natural Language Processing)
  • Meeting room analytics
  • Computer vision

How has Natural language Processing helped to improve meeting rooms?

Some of the major ways Natural Language Processing has improved the experience of AI meeting rooms are:

  • NLP is used for improving video conferencing in a majority of different ways.
  • Enabling automated transcription of the meeting, for a quick review later on.
  • Easy access to sharing actions and notes.
  • Translation of conversation into different languages.
  • NLP, when combined with AI, can enable virtual assistants and chatbots to start, join and leave meetings through a simple voice command.
  • When you combine AI with natural language processing, this will enable better audio quality by suppressing the echo and minimising the background noise.
  • Some of the techniques which can be used for evolving techniques are automatic levelling and beamforming.

How AI can improve productivity with meeting room analytics?

AI can be used to interact with users, who are present both inside and outside of the meeting room to increase productivity. AI can also drive significant improvements in video conferencing, to enable businesses and managing meetings more effectively by driving efficiency through simple tasks such as rescheduling calls and sending out notifications.

This helps you to find and book rooms which are available and is a great tool for optimising the overall facilities of the management and make the most out of the office space.

AI can deliver an exceptional user experience with Computer vision!

Computer vision with the advancements of computer vision can improve the whole video conferencing experience. This can also drive improvements, by allowing the camera to recognise who is speaking and zoom into the person as well.

The smart camera control can track human figures with the help of smart technology. Cameras now have the ability to pan, tilt and zoom to the centre for comfortably framing participants.

Computer vision, when combined with AI, creates video quality which consists of intelligent colour and light correction. This is a great feature for detecting visual issues and optimising the balance of light to emphasise faces in dim or backlit conditions.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, the potential of AI is limitless and it has taken the whole aspect of video conferencing to the next level. One day, we can hope to drive mainstream adoption of AI-based video collaboration but only by building trust in the ecosystem. This is the major metric in ensuring that all the different players involved in this industry can improve the overall productivity of the whole organization as well. Thus, this was a short brief about the rise of AI-powered smart meeting rooms and we hope you found this information useful!
