Audio Features
TOTEM 360 is equipped with four microphones and a 360° speaker. The microphones pick up
sound from all directions and thanks to the beamforming technology are capable of determining
the direction of the sound. This is used to track the active speakers. The onboard AI noise reduc-
tion makes sure your meeting won't get disturbed by sounds from the background.

The Hybrid Learning mode makes the lessons
immersive for the online participants, allow-
ing them to see the lecturer and the class at
the same time. The onboard AI tracks the
presenter's movements, keeping the focus of
the shot on the presenter and the presented
materials.
The Presentation mode provides a directional
view that brings full focus to up to two
presenters. In this mode, the AI tracks the
presenters in front of the camera, keeping
them in the focus of the shot.
Tip: When in this mode, the buttons of TOTEM should
face the presenter.
Tip: Place TOTEM between the lecturer and the
participants, with the buttons facing the lecturer.
