ClearOne’s Beamforming Microphone Array is claimed to be the world’s first professional-grade directional microphone array with beamforming and adaptive steering technology, and ClearOne’s next-generation Acoustic Echo Cancellation. Twenty-four microphone elements steer acoustic pickup patterns towards participants, rejecting unwanted noise and reflections, and offering high-end voice audio performance. The array seamlessly interfaces with ClearOne CONVERGE Pro products, and supports Power-over-Ethernet operation.
Recently, the Beamforming Microphone Array was updated to operate with ClearOne’s COLLABORATE Room Pro all-in-one, high-definition, 1080p 60fps (frames per second) video appliance. This integrated solution, available with a nine-party MCU, includes many tools that would usually be purchased separately, such as streaming, recording, content creation, presentation and in a future free software upgrade — wireless projection and interactive white boarding.
