Focus Room

The Desk Pro G2 features advanced noise cancellation and reverberation reduction algorithms, but the sound clarity will also depend on the acoustic conditions in the room. For the optimal experience, use an acoustically absorbing suspended ceiling and acoustical wall panels, preferably on adjoining walls to avoid flutter echo between parallel walls.

Use sound absorbing materials, such as acoustically absorbing wall panels, to reduce reverberation which supports concentration, reduces fatigue, and creates a comfortable working environment.

Proper orientation of the desk device within the focus room is critical. Positioning the Desk Pro G2 on the adjoining wall with the door or applying a semi-transparent privacy film on the glass-wall provides more privacy inside the room, as well as helping to minimize the number of false positives created when the device is used to detect occupancy.

If the device is installed on the opposing wall, apply a privacy film on the glass wall and activate the meeting zones feature on the collaboration device to avoid capturing and framing passers-by during video meetings.

To ensure people are properly illuminated, they should be lit from the front (fill light), top (key light) and back (backlight). For optimal visibility, eye contact, subject highlighting, and scene depth, use a glare-free luminary with a beam angle of 90°or wider, evenly distributing light throughout the room.

We recommend using a light intensity of 400-500 lux, measured vertically, to clearly capture facial features, and 700-900 lux for optimal brightness on horizontal work surfaces. The lighting in the room should be even and a light color temperature of 4000 K works well in most scenarios. To render skin tones and room interior correctly, use a color rendering index (CRI) of 85 or better.
