Improved Mapping and Coverage

Nureva has announced a new coverage map and automated camera switching capabilities for its HDL310 audio conferencing system designed for large meeting and learning spaces. Powered by Nureva’s patented Microphone Mist technology, the HDL310 now uses coordinate-based (XY) sound location data and its unique coverage map to show exactly where voices are being picked up in the room. With these new HDL310 capabilities, IT managers and integrators can define camera zones, assign cameras or presets to each zone and monitor real-time microphone pickup — all from the Nureva App. As people move and speak in the room, the XY sound-location data automatically triggers the corresponding camera so remote participants always see where the conversation is happening. When the room is reconfigured, users simply select the relevant preconfigured room profile in the Nureva App, and the system applies the correct zone coverage and camera switching settings without any need for manual recalibration.

Traditional camera switching solutions typically require multiple ceiling or table microphones, detailed DSP programming and manual calibration that must be reconfigured whenever room layouts change. The HDL310 system takes a different approach, combining its built-in Microphone Mist technology with the INOGENI CAM230 multi-camera selector to localize sound and automate camera switching. The HDL310 system’s coverage map provides IT managers and integrators with a clear two-dimensional view of microphone pickup points across the room, making it easy to validate coverage, fine-tune camera zones and troubleshoot issues without specialized tools or expertise.

Nureva’s HDL410 system for extra-large rooms already has these same capabilities, which have been widely adopted to simplify multi-camera experiences in classrooms and meeting spaces up to 35′ x 55′ (10.7 x 16.8 m). The HDL310 now brings these benefits to large rooms up to 30′ x 30′ (9.1 x 9.1 m), giving IT teams a consistent workflow for camera automation across the two systems.

“As Nureva continues to transform and simplify large-room audio, extending our coverage map and camera switching functionality to the HDL310 system is a natural next step,” said Nancy Knowlton, Nureva’s CEO. “These additional features will help our customers to create a more inclusive hybrid experience, where everyone in the room can be both heard and seen, without adding complexity to their AV stack.”

Availability
The coverage map and camera switching capabilities for the Nureva HDL310 system are available now in the Nureva App at no additional cost, with support in Nureva Console coming soon. Attendees at Integrated Systems Europe are invited to visit Nureva’s stand (2N700) to learn more about the full line of HDL audio conferencing products and the new HDX audio series.
