Voice Tracker™ Array Microphone for Conferencing
Conferencing talkers throughout a large room is a challenging task due to the sounds from other people in the room, as well as background noise, which can all obscure the speech. Usually, several microphones (with associated mixers) are required to obtain a quality sound in a teleconference. The Voice Tracker™ Array Microphone, with scanning unidirectional technology, enables high quality, full room coverage with a single microphone.

The Voice Tracker™ Array Microphone locates a talker and electronically steers a "listening beam," like an acoustic searchlight, in that direction. This creates spatial filtering; sounds and reverberation from other parts of the room are not picked up during a conference. In addition, digital noise reduction processing removes background noise. This two-stage noise reduction, coupled with the sensitivity of eight "always on" microphone elements, gives the Voice Tracker™ Array Microphone outstanding range and sound quality ideal for conferencing.
