First All-In-One 2K Conferencing Solution to Feature Built-In Lighting
BELLEVUE, Wash., Jan. 25, 2022 – AnkerWork, a developer of unique conferencing solutions that enhance the hybrid work experience, announced today the AnkerWork B600, the company’s first all-in-one video conferencing bar, which includes a 2K camera, 4-mic array, twin speakers, and smart LED light bar. During CES 2022, the B600 was presented as a CES Award honoree, and it is now available for purchase.
Four-In-One Design
The AnkerWork B600 is a four-in-one remote communication and collaboration video bar that eliminates desk clutter, annoying sounds, and bad lighting during meetings to help you work from home. The B600 combines four features into one device: a 2K conference camera, an advanced noise reduction microphone array, high-quality speakers, and integrated automated lighting. The tiny device mounts simply on an external display and helps you maintain a nice and tidy workspace, making it equally suitable for use at home or at the office.
“The hybrid work model is requiring consumers to invest in multiple conferencing solutions – lights, mics, cameras and more – to stay connected with their colleagues,” said Eric Villines, Head of Global Communications at Anker Innovations. “The B600 is the first all-in-one video conferencing bar to offer a true plug and play studio experience. It makes everyone look and sound more professional while removing excess clutter in the workspace.”
Excellent Audio and Video Performance
The B600 from AnkerWork includes a 2K video camera with auto-focus, field-of-view control, and image enhancement for a professional video experience from any place.
VoiceRadarTM, a sophisticated vocal radar technology that uses four highly sensitive mics to identify, isolate, and enhance the user’s speech audio from various directions, is also included in the B600. Furthermore, its 2X2W speakers use directional beamforming technology to offer amazing sound even in the most challenging circumstances.
The AnkerWork B600 can be used with most current video conference platforms to provide vibrant video and crystal-clear audio to ensure users look and sound their best no matter where they are.
Built-in Light
Through MagicSight™ intelligent lighting technology, the B600 can accurately compensate for any lighting conditions in the home office. The B600 analyzes facial lighting through the camera and calculates the ideal lighting requirements for a perfect image. The B600 also delivers automated lighting adjustment through its built-in LED light bar to ensure users look their best in any setting. Color temperature and brightness can be adjusted using the AnkerWork app.
The privacy and lighting functions are included in the integrated light panel design. The light panel works as a privacy shield by obscuring the camera when closed. It is also possible to use the lighting panel as a reading light.
