Biamp announced eight new products and updates ranging from software to new loudspeakers for large spaces to controllers and conferencing equipment for larger rooms. Here is a quick overview of what is new:

Biamp says the Workplace is a new cloud-based platform that represents the next stage in the company’s unified ecosystem strategy, consolidating capabilities from Evoko Workplace and SageVue into a single solution for centralized AV monitoring, management and optimization across the Biamp product portfolio. The company says this cloud-hosted software solution empowers integrators, IT managers and support staff to seamlessly oversee all deployed Biamp systems from a unified dashboard.

For hybrid work scenarios, Biamp also introduced new updates to Evoko Workplace and the Naso room scheduling panels. The company says this update unifies Biamp desk and room scheduling solutions into a single cloud-based platform, streamlining workspace management and enhancing collaboration for hybrid work environments. The new unified system eliminates double bookings, provides real-time visibility into room and desk availability and offers data-driven insights to optimize workspace utilization.

Biamp says the Community R.15-3696 loudspeaker offers voice intelligibility and quality music playback in a compact size with pricing optimized for large deployments. The R.15-3696 loudspeaker augments the Community R SERIES and is designed for both indoor and outdoor applications that require shorter throw distances than those provided with the larger R SERIES speakers, such as short throw sports field applications, stadium concourses, warehouses, gymnasiums and other similar highly reverberant spaces.

Also for large spaces, Biamp launched a new loudspeaker, the CCA-80, designed to solve the acoustical challenges presented by long aisles and concourses found in warehouses, sports complexes, shopping malls, hotels, themed entertainment venues and more. Biamp says the constant coverage asymmetrical loudspeaker minimizes reverberation and enhances intelligibility for applications that require clear paging and quality background music. Offering an industry-first asymmetric, rectangular coverage footprint with a longer throw distance, the CCA-80 minimizes necessary loudspeaker count, creating more cost effective and efficient large-scale deployments.

Biamp announced the newest member of its  Parlé conferencing bar line: the Parlé VBC 2800, a high performance all-in-one video bar with upgraded camera optics that the company says is ideal for all meeting spaces up to and including large rooms. The Parlé VBC 2800 features a dual camera system with 120° horizontal field of view and up to 16x digital zoom with a 50-megapixel image sensor. Biamp says this same camera technology is available in the new Vidi 280 compact electronic pan-tilt-zoom (ePTZ) conference room camera.

Biamp says it is adding to its Voltera family of networked amplified loudspeaker controllers (ALCs) with the Voltera D M series. Featuring an integrated TesiraFORTÉ digital signal processor (DSP), the Voltera D M combines amplification and processing into a single cost-effective, networked solution ideal for small-to-medium sized venues such as hotels, restaurants, retailers and houses of worship.
