Sight works best with Rally Bar and Rally Bar Mini

Logitech Sight is meant to work with a front-of-room camera to add an additional, center-of-room perspective to follow conversations between speakers, capture contextual in-room activity, and auto-frame participants for the best experience.

Front-of-room view from Rally Bar, Rally Bar Mini, or other Logitech front-of-room cameras.

Frames of speakers picked up from Sight, at the center of table.

For more details on how this experience comes to life in modes like Speaker View, Grid View, and Smart Switching, read below to get details based on video deployment and platform.

Speaker View

Speaker View uses audio and video AI to capture the in-room conversation, framing and focusing on active or recently active speakers.  Logitech Sight improves Speaker View by including views from both the Sight and the front of room camera.

Default experience

By default, Rally Bar and Rally Bar Mini output a single, composited stream with up to 4 active speakers as captured by Sight along with a Picture in Picture view, captured by Rally Bar, that shows a Group View of all those in the meeting room.

Grid View

Grid View captures and frames all participants within range, both active speakers and non-active participants.
Logitech Sight enhances Grid View with Sight by presenting active and non-active participants from both the tabletop and front-of-room view.
Grid View integrations with Sight will be available after initial product launch. Compatibility and user experience will vary depending on the video platform.

Smart Switching

Smart Switching uses AI to automatically switch cameras based on which way the talker is facing. As those in the room speak to each other, they are typically framed by Sight. When they face the front of the room to speak to someone on the far end, Rally Bar will typically frame them.

Note: Smart Switching will be available through a future CollabOS software update.

If you're interested in trying Smart Switching, you can sign up for beta access to the feature here:

*Perspective has switched to front-of-room camera

Dual-Sight connection

In the future, it will be possible to connect two Sight cameras ("daisy-chaining") via CAT6a cable to extend coverage to longer tables or larger rooms. This feature will be supported in a future release of CollabOS.

Google Meet (on ChromeOS/Meet Compute Box)

Google Meet (Android-Based Appliances)

More information coming soon.

Microsoft Teams Rooms (Windows)

Sight is certified as a Teams peripheral for Rally Bar and Rally Bar Mini.

See explanations of view modes and features above.

In Teams, Speaker View is selected in CollabOS settings. (3)

Note: Coming soon, In-room participants will be able to enable Sight with Rally or Rally Plus by selecting “Sight” perspective as the active camera.

Zoom Rooms (Appliance)

Sight is certified for Zoom Rooms appliances as a Panoramic Camera.

See explanations of view modes and features above.

In Zoom, Speaker View is enabled by selecting “Speaker Focus.” (2)

Zoom Rooms (MacOS or Windows)

Sight is certified for Zoom Rooms as a Panoramic Camera.

See explanations of view modes and features above.

In Zoom, Speaker View is enabled by selecting “Speaker Focus.” (2)

BYOD including BYOD with Logitech Swytch

1 - If “Picture in picture” is deselected in CollabOS settings, Sync Portal or Local Network Access, only the view from Sight will be shown.

2 - “Speaker Focus” is selected in the Zoom Camera Control menu.

3 - “Speaker View” is selected in CollabOS settings, Sync Portal or Local Network Access.

Unsupported Configurations

To differentiate between talkers in the conference room vs. those remote, Sight needs to connect to an AV system that can provide the audio path information.  Currently that list includes Rally Bar and Rally Bar Mini (support for Rally and Rally Plus in Zoom Rooms is coming shortly).  Therefore, at this point the following devices/configurations are not supported with Sight:

• Sight stand alone
• Sight connected directly to a computer (without audio from one of the above listed products)
• Sight with Rally Bar Huddle
• Sight with RoomMate
• Sight with MeetUp
• Sight with BCC950
• Sight with Group
• Sight with Webcams
• 3rd party audio (this is being investigated as a future feature)
