Key Digital launched a set of UCC solutions, called LeCAMbio Conferencing Systems, in partnership with TOA Electronics. LeCAMbio systems link microphone beam-steering technology in the TOA LENUBIO soundbar with Key Digital’s PTZ camera to allow for voice and camera tracking of active users.

The systems each include the Key Digital KD-CAMUSB PTZ camera with automation based on voice-tracking capabilities of TOA Electronics’ LENUBIO AM-CF1, which houses a seven-microphone array with active stereo speakers (available in white or black). Key Digital’s KD-CX800 Control Interface is the final hardware component, allowing IR and RS-232 system control via IP Routing. Connectivity to a host computer is handled with a single USB connection. The systems generate 1080p full HD video with up to 10x optical zoom via the KD-CAMUSB with automatic beam-steering audio capture per the AM-CF-1’s microphone array. In the LeCAMbio system, LENUBIO’s voice-tracking data is converted to the camera’s PTZ information, providing both voice and camera steering to an active participant via Key Digital’s Compass Control Pro control software for iOS.

Touch-screen system control is handled via iOS (Compass Control Pro on iPad), and manual camera control is also available via the free KDCam Software for Windows computers. Additionally, further AV and room devices can be easily integrated into the system’s signal flow.

The LeCAMbio System 1 supports up to five meters (16 feet) of USB/HDMI cable length from the display. System 2 scales up to 50 meters (164 feet) via the use of the KD-XUSB2 USB 2.0 Extender Kit. System 3 incorporates the KD-X100MRX HDBaseT Receiver and KD-X4x1WUTx or KD-X3x1WUTx HDBaseT Transmitter to scale up to 100 meters of cabling extension. System 4 also offers 100 meters with HDBaseT consolidation and in-rack connectivity for additional sources and other system components with the addition of the KD-UPS52U Presentation Switch.
