“Can you hear me? Is that a dog barking? What’s that noise?”
Remote work has caused an explosive increase in video meetings and uncovered some serious issues that prevent more natural interactions.
The most common complaints from video conferencing users include:
- Background Noise
- Audio Cutting In and Out
- Simultaneous Speech
These issues are not only frustrating but are also costly and inhibit productivity.
They impact us in these ways:
- Impaired Cognitive Function – Poor audio forces listeners to expend more energy processing what is being said. This “effortful listening” is linked to poor memory and higher stress, thus reducing your team’s overall productivity and ability to operate at a high-level.
- Reduced Focus – Background noise is likely a factor in poor audio quality. If ambient noise isn’t suppressed, it can distract participants to the point where they will have trouble paying attention.
- Physiological Symptoms – Poor audio quality makes your ears and brain work harder to retain information. If parts of a conversation are unintelligible, your brain will compensate and fill in the blanks leading to headaches and fatigue after a difficult call.
The result? Team members and clients are less engaged in meetings and will stop attending.
We have created a solution that can deliver large-scale immersive virtual conversations that restore in-person like experiences. Our Immersitech Engage UC SDK can easily be integrated using pre-configured adapters for many popular UC applications.
