360° panoramic view instead of static perspective
The Innex Omni works with four 4K camera lenses that provide a seamless 360° panoramic image. This captures the entire conference room – from the small meeting island to the large meeting room.
Advantages in everyday meetings:
- Everyone at the table is in the picture at the same time
- Subsequent „readjustment“ of the perspective is no longer necessary
- Ideal for round or U-shaped table arrangements
- Suitable for flexible rooms where furniture is moved frequently
The image signals from the four sensors are combined in real time. This creates a smooth, clean 360° image that is also suitable for demanding video conferences and presentations.
The video bar is typically mounted below or above the display and takes over the complete audio and video technology in the room – ideal for standardized meeting rooms.
4K camera quality for professional conferences
With a maximum resolution of 4K (3840 x 2160 at 30 fps), the Innex Omni delivers a razor-sharp image. Full HD and HD resolutions are available even with reduced bandwidth, allowing the camera to be flexibly adapted to different network situations.
Technical key points at a glance:
- Four 8-megapixel CMOS sensors
- Max. Field of vision: 360° horizontal, 60° vertical
- HDR support for better contrasts
- Automatic white balance and automatic exposure
Especially in conference rooms with mixed light, glass surfaces or presentation areas, this image optimization ensures that faces and content remain clearly visible.
AI on board: person, speaker and movement tracking
A key feature of the Innex Omni is the integrated AI, which not only intelligently controls the image, but also the interaction in the room.
Person tracking and speaker focusing
The camera recognizes where people are sitting and who is speaking. The image can automatically zoom in on the active person or highlight relevant areas. This provides a meeting view that dynamically adapts to the conversation – without manual camera control.
- Automatic detection of people in the room
- Dynamic adjustment of the image section in real time
- Precise speaker tracking for a clear focus in the discussion
Especially in hybrid meetings, external participants feel more involved because they can follow the conversation intuitively – similar to a face-to-face meeting.
Clear speech thanks to bidirectional noise suppression
In addition to the picture, the sound is crucial for the quality of a meeting. The Innex Omni relies on a sophisticated audio setup with multiple microphones, beamforming and bidirectional noise suppression.
The definable focus zone is particularly interesting: voices within a selected range (e.g. 90°, 135° or 180°) are emphasized, while noises outside are specifically attenuated. This is ideal for conference rooms that are openly integrated into larger office environments or where other activities are taking place at the same time.
Essential audio functions:
- DOA (Direction of Arrival) microphone array for direction detection
- AI-based noise reduction (e.g. fan, keyboard clacking, ambient noise)
- Acoustic echo cancellation for clean conference audio quality
- Reverberation suppression for reverberant rooms
- Bidirectional noise cancellation: noise is reduced on both the local and remote sides
Flexible video modes for different scenarios
The Innex Omni offers various video modes that can be selected at the touch of a button or by remote control. This allows the display to be optimally adapted to the respective meeting type.
Typical modes include:
- Gallery view: Several people in the room are displayed simultaneously
- Speaker tracking: The active speaker is automatically highlighted
- Spotlight: Focus on a defined person or position, e.g. presenter
- Picture-in-picture (PiP): Combination of general overview and detailed view
- Automatic framing: the image section adapts to the group size
- Manual control: Fixed perspectives and sections for recurring setups
For companies that regularly hold hybrid workshops, training courses or project meetings, this creates a high level of user convenience: setups that have been configured once can be called up quickly and reused.
Security and privacy in the conference room
In many organizations, data protection plays a central role – especially in meeting rooms where sensitive content is discussed.
The Innex Omni offers physical coverage with real function:
If the privacy function is activated, the device is not only visually concealed, but the camera is technically deactivated completely. This increases the feeling of security and often fulfills internal compliance requirements.
Status LEDs also make it easier to check quickly: you can see at a glance whether the camera and microphones are active or muted.
Typical application scenarios for the Innex Omni
Thanks to the 360° recording, AI functions and integrated audio technology, the Innex Omni – can be used in a wide range of applications in the corporate environment as well as in the education and training sector.
Examples:
- Conference rooms and meeting rooms in companies
- Hybrid meetings with distributed teams
- Workshops and project reviews with many speakers
- Training rooms and blended learning environments
- Online coaching, consulting and collaborative creative meetings
- Meeting islands in open-space offices
The Innex Omni can significantly simplify AV technology, especially in existing conference rooms where several individual solutions (webcam, microphone, speakers) were previously used: A central device takes over the camera, microphone and speakers and is integrated into the conference system via USB-C.
Integration into conference rooms and existing media technology
For reliable everyday use, it is not only the device itself that is crucial, but also the planning of the entire conference technology. Important questions in advance:
- Room size and furnishings: Where is the optimum position (table center, pedestal, media table)?
- Connection to existing systems: Connection to PC, room control or video conferencing system
- Acoustics: Are the room acoustics suitable for the planned recording distance and use?
- Displays and LED walls: How is the 360° image optimally displayed on the available image surfaces?
- IT environment: bandwidth, USB compatibility, shares in the company network
In combination with professional – media technology such as large displays, LED walls or permanently installed – audio technology, the Innex Omni becomes the centerpiece of modern, hybrid conference rooms.
Conclusion: 360° conference camera with a focus on usability
The Innex Omni combines 4K multi-camera technology, integrated AI and a sophisticated audio concept in a single device.
For companies, educational institutions and organizations that:
- want to map hybrid meetings professionally,
- want to make all participants in the room equally visible,
- switch flexibly between different meeting formats,
- and value data protection, simple operation and high-quality AV technology,
the Innex Omni is an interesting solution for modern conference rooms and events.
If you are planning to equip your conference rooms, meeting or conference zones with new technology or modernize existing video conferencing solutions, it is worth taking a look at 360° conference cameras such as the Innex Omni. Combined with expert advice and media technology tailored to your room, the result is a setup that will add lasting value to your conferences, meetings and hybrid events.
