**London**: Xilica has launched RoomHub, an advanced audio processor that automates setup in medium to large meeting spaces. Featuring AI-driven technologies and machine learning, it enhances audio performance while simplifying installation, monitoring, and integration for improved collaboration and user experience.
Xilica has unveiled its latest innovation, RoomHub, designed specifically for medium and large meeting rooms, divisible spaces, and classrooms. This advanced audio processor stands out due to its integrated intelligence that automatically identifies and configures system components, which include microphones and cameras, streamlining the setup process for users.
A significant feature of RoomHub is its AI AutoDeploy technology, which examines the acoustics of the room to automatically optimise audio performance. This capability effectively negates the necessity for intricate audio programming during the installation and deployment stages. According to Xilica, the AI engine provides real-time insights at the edge, allowing AI AutoDeploy to continuously refine room acoustics without the need for manual adjustments.
Additionally, RoomHub incorporates advanced machine learning (ML) algorithms, which support innovative features such as AI NoiseSense. This technology is adept at recognising and filtering both static and dynamic noise, ensuring clearer audio experiences. Moreover, RoomHub introduces continuous ML-driven dereverberation, which adapts to the ever-changing conditions of the room. The system also includes the second generation of Xilica’s HearClear acoustic echo cancellation, enhanced with machine learning and Intelligent Quality (IQ) Voice Enhancement, providing users with an improved audio experience.
For IT departments, RoomHub offers robust control and monitoring capabilities. The device is programmed to conduct extensive check-ups on all connected devices nightly, allowing it to identify potential issues before they affect end-users. Following firmware updates or changes to the room configuration, RoomHub automatically verifies each component, providing thorough health reports directly to the user dashboard. This proactive strategy seeks to maximise uptime and alleviate the challenges traditionally associated with managing audio-visual systems.
Equipped with Dante audio technology and dual USB-C connectivity, RoomHub also supports Intelligent IQ Director multi-camera tracking. In addition, integrated Bluetooth and Auracast technology facilitate accessibility and content sharing by allowing direct audio streaming to hearing assistance devices, further enhancing its utility in collaborative environments.
The introduction of RoomHub reflects a significant advancement in hearing assistance technology and audio processing systems, combining ease of use with sophisticated functionality to cater to a diverse range of audio environments.
