Introduction
The Lenovo ThinkSmart Hub is an all-in-one (compute/PC + microphones + speakers + control) device
purpose-built for Meeting Room collaboration. Its design features a 10.1” touch control panel capable of
rotating 360 degrees. With the ThinkSmart Hub, the only other hardware needed is a USB camera and
HDMI connected display.
Microphones are integrated into the top of the touchscreen and speakers are located in the ‘stem’ that
connects the touchscreen to the base. It ideally sits atop a conference room table where it enables audio,
video and content sharing.
Target Rooms
The ThinkSmart Hub scales well to many room sizes, but out of the box it is ideal for small to
medium/large rooms. These are typically huddle rooms, team rooms, and conference/meeting spaces.
The four microphones on the ThinkSmart Hub are tuned for a 360-degree audio capture and the
distance from the ThinkSmart Hub to an in-room participant should be no greater than approx
4.5m/14ft x 8.5M/27ft.
