Videoconferencing device providing viewing angle diversity

Abstract

A videoconferencing device may include an elongated housing having two ends, a microphone array, one or more loudspeakers, and a plurality of cameras, where at least one of the cameras is disposed at one end of the housing at least another of the cameras is disposed at an opposite end of the housing. The videoconferencing device may also include a microphone array disposed within an acoustical cavity, where the cameras and loudspeakers are disposed outside of the acoustical cavity. The videoconferencing devices may provide viewing angle diversity of the cameras to better capture images and/or video of participants in a videoconference, and also provide more optimal audio capture of the participants.
