Industrial Design / Product Development / System Integration / Cross-Functional Collaboration
All-in-One Video Bar.
Built For Hybrid Meetings.
CHALLENGE & APPROACH
Problem
Conference rooms need camera, audio, microphones, I/O, mounting, and cloud conferencing support in one device. The challenge was to make this complex system feel simple, approachable, and visually integrated into the meeting space.
Constraints
The design had to balance camera placement, speaker and microphone layout, I/O access, mounting structure, internal hardware, CMF, and room-facing appearance.
Design Focus
Final direction used horizontal capsule form, soft rear shell, black cloth faceplate, and lifted upper line to organize the product into an all-in-one video bar. The design reduced visual clutter while keeping the main video, audio, and installation features easy to understand.
