Cisco: AirPlay for teams rooms and better vision-pro support for webex

Ciscos Video Conferencing solution webex gets a series New features for Apple users. In the future, it will be easier to share the content of devices. Spatial computing support for WebEX for users of the Vision Pro is also generally released, which has not yet been in general Availability in connection with Cisco hardware, according to the company.

Streaming of all sorts of Apple gadgets

Anyone who has a Cisco hardware in their conference room can now for the first time AirPlay in connection with Microsoft Teams Rooms insert. Wireless sharing of content works from iPhone, iPad and Mac. To do this, you just have to select the Cisco device as a recipient and see the other area what the user sees-this is how you know it from various other Airplay recipients like the Apple TV.

The so -called Cisco Spatial meetings are also new. These were already available for selected WebEX customers, but are now released for all users. The feature is initially for the Cisco Room Bar Pro planned. Users with a vision Pro can then transform “any room in an immersive studio”. To do this, the official webex app that has been available since last year must run on the Apple headset. This also allows the use of the virtual vision-pro-personas avatars, because as is known, there is no camera that captures the vision-pro-user in the overall picture.

Cisco is not just Webex

The new developments show that Cisco continues to try not only to be identified as a webex mother. The Microsoft teams-Rooms support is intended to help open up new target groups that the Microsoft suite have long since used everyday work and do not want to switch to webex for conferences. With the Cisco device and the AirPlay support, Apple devices can now also be easily integrated into this workflow without users having to present teams on the device and have to present them as a “own user”-but like a person present in the room.

Apple had recently tried to accommodate the vision more in the Enterprise market. The device at least 4000 euros in Europe, for example, is used at least experimentally for Porsche and numerous other large companies.
