Williams AV Debuts BLUE POD and BLUE POD AIR
The BLUE POD and BLUE POD AIR from Williams AV aim to simplify conference calls in your meeting rooms using your mobile device. Make a call by touching the Bluetooth connect button on your phone; no special software is needed. Use the iOS and Android apps for complete system setup control. Select the speakers and microphones you want to use. BLUE POD features an integrated mixer with DSP functions, including Acoustic Echo Cancellation. The mixer includes four inputs, two line outputs and two 25-watt amplifiers. The patent-pending design allows for integration of the Bluetooth transceiver (the POD) into the ceiling directly over your workspace, minimizing distance limitations and signal blockage.
BLUE POD AIR showcases all the features of the BLUE POD – plus wireless video display mirroring for mobile devices using Airplay, Google Chromecast and Miracast. So, in addition to functioning as an amazing Bluetooth audio conferencing system, the BLUE POD AIR allows for easy connection of your mobile device to the room display. Simply tap the display-mirroring connect button already on your device. BLUE POD AIR is also equipped with an HDMI output, supporting resolutions up to 1080p. Installation is as simple as installing an HDMI cable directly to your display. It’s easy to integrate BLUE POD and BLUE POD AIR into your existing audio system as an input source on an existing audio mixer or by using the existing speakers in the room.
