“We’ve all been in meetings that inevitably slow down and waste time, because someone can’t easily share their presentation - which inspired us to make a solution for this everyday inconvenience,” said Scott Wharton, vice president and general manager of the Logitech Video Collaboration. “With Logitech Screen Share, there’s nothing new to learn and no software to install on your personal device. There’s no checking and rechecking the meeting ID or pairing code, or fumbling with input sources and remote controls. You don’t even need to be online. You just connect your laptop or mobile device to your conference room’s dedicated computer.”
“Logitech is addressing the underserved need for reliable wired content sharing in today’s meeting rooms,” said Oded Gal, head of product management, Zoom Video Communications. “In addition to Zoom Rooms' wireless content sharing feature, with Logitech Screen Share, Zoom Rooms users can quickly and easily share content with local and remote meeting attendees via a simple HDMI connection to their computers.”
Powered by an HDMI capture device and companion application for the conference room computer, Logitech Screen Share projects content on the in-room display, where it can be seen by others and shared into any meeting or video conferencing service, such as Zoom, BlueJean, Skype for Business,or WebEx.
Logitech Screen Share combines a familiar plug-and-present workflow with solid reliability and responsive performance. Incorporating video-encoding technology in a hideaway package, Logitech Screen Share is a snap to install, easy-to-use and affordable enough to deploy in every conference room. With its ultra low-latency HDMI connection and on-board video processing, Logitech Screen Share delivers a sharp and responsive experience in every meeting. This means natural-feeling navigation, instant typing, smooth scrolling and 1080p HD video at up to 30 frames per second.
Pricing and Availability
Logitech Screen Share is expected to be available through global resellers in November 2017 for the suggested price of $299. For more information, please visit Logitech.com or our blog.
