The AI-based solutions will elevate employee and customer engagement for organisations of all sizes and industries.
Zoom’s Abhinav Kashyap gave a walkthrough of the latest products and solutions at the Zoom Room Experience day held in Bengaluru. Here’s the rundown.
Smart Gallery
The smart gallery solution leverages AI to create individual video feeds of in-room participants so they’re viewed clearly and equally by remote employees, creating a more inclusive hybrid work experience. The feature uses AI models based on object detection and conversational AI to strategically capture a single-camera view of multiple people in a Zoom Room and send up to three unique video streams to better display the in-room participants to remote attendees.
Zoom Rooms Smart Gallery displays multiple video feeds from a single conference room. This allows the Zoom Room cameras to focus more closely on groups of participants and display people more clearly to remote attendees. Effective collaboration between remote attendees and Zoom Room participants can be enhanced by the face-to-face meeting experience. The solution offers virtual assistant capabilities and all you have to say is “start the meeting” for instant launch.

Zoom Room Scheduler
A Zoom Room Scheduler shows the current availability of meeting rooms, displays upcoming meetings, and allows people to easily reserve time for an instant Zoom meeting. Eliminating scheduling headaches and squatters, the system integrates with Zoom Rooms and an employee’s current calendar system, so there is only one system for IT to manage and for the end-user to understand.
Voice Commands for Zoom Rooms are supported on all Zoom Rooms platforms. With a locally processed expanded command set, Zoom Rooms participants can use voice commands such as “start meeting,” “leave the meeting,” “check-in,” to provide a safe and effective hands-free meeting experience.
With integrated APIs like DocuSign, various apps can be integrated into the Zoom experience. The Zoom team is also working towards using AR,VR technologies to provide a more immersive experience.
