Enterprises have been taking advantage of all the benefits video conferencing provides for some time. For small organizations, the cost of on premises conference room systems meant they were priced out from being able to capitalize on the technology. But developments in digital technology now make it possible to carry out video communications using everything from a smartphone to a laptop, as well as more affordable in room systems that won't require the budget of a large enterprise. HuddleCamHD has simplified video conferencing so businesses of almost any size can deploy a system in small, medium or large rooms with single or multiple cameras for different types of configuration.

HuddleCamHD manufactures both wireless and wired USB connected conference cameras and speakerphones with pan, tilt and optical zoom capabilities that are affordable. The company was founded in 2014 by a group of engineers with the goal of using their expertise and decades of experience in audio visual technology to make video conferencing technology available to a larger audience.

Since that time, the company has been making innovations in wired and wireless cameras, including the HuddleCam Air, the world’s first “zero-latency” wireless USB conference camera. This was followed by the HuddlePod Air, which was one of the first wireless speakerphones using the 2.4 Ghz spectrum.

HuddleCamHD also excels in its ability to integrate conferencing software. The company has an agnostic platform that allows users to choose from the hundreds of Web conferencing applications available in the marketplace. Adobe (News - Alert) Connect, Bluejeans, Cisco Jabber, Skype for Business, GoToMeeting and WebEX just being a small part of what HuddleCamHD users can select.

This type of compatibility lets organizations that use different systems come together and initiate a conference without having to worry about compatibility issues.

Company CEO, Hugh Richards, said, “We serve a larger market by remaining software agnostic and supporting the whole mass of web conferencing providers… we work with various web conferencing software companies every week determining capability. Some companies such as VSee and Zoom.US have already begun advanced integrations for camera control directly in their software platforms.”

HuddleCamHD cameras include the 10X 720p, 10X G3, 3X W G2 (News - Alert), 20X G2, 30X G2 with optical zooms ranging from 3X to 30X to handle small to large rooms. The cameras are available with Quicklaunch SE, a command software that secures and keeps your applications organized in an easy to use interface.

According to the company, it increases meeting productivity by 25 percent and it allows users to export and import themes and actions in multiple installations.
