As a company dedicated to providing our clients with top-tier IT services and hardware, Southridge Technology is always on the lookout for products that enhance the efficiency and experience of our clients’ daily operations. Recently, we had the opportunity to test the NexiGo Meeting 360 (Gen 2) 360-Degree Smart Video Conference Camera, and it’s safe to say that this device stands out in the crowded market of video conferencing tools.

Setup and Installation
The setup process for the NexiGo Meeting 360 (Gen 2) was impressively straightforward. From unboxing to being fully operational, the camera was up and running within minutes. This ease of setup makes it an ideal choice for businesses that need a reliable solution without the hassle of complex installations. The plug-and-play nature of the device means that even those without a deep technical background can get it working quickly.
Video and Audio Quality
One of the standout features of the NexiGo Meeting 360 is its exceptional video quality. During our testing, both remote participants and those in the conference room commented on the clarity and sharpness of the video feed. The 360-degree coverage ensures that everyone in the room is visible, providing a comprehensive view of the meeting space. This is particularly beneficial for hybrid meetings, where remote attendees can sometimes feel disconnected. With this camera, everyone is in the frame, fostering a more inclusive and collaborative environment.
A key highlight is the camera’s ability to capture video at 8K resolution, with a smooth output at 1080p. This combination delivers a crystal-clear viewing experience, ensuring that even the smallest details are captured and displayed with precision.
Equally impressive is the audio quality. The NexiGo Meeting 360 is equipped with 8 noise-cancelling microphones strategically placed around the device. These microphones work together to capture clear and crisp sound from all corners of the room, ensuring that every voice is heard without the need for additional microphones. The noise-cancelling feature is particularly effective at eliminating background noise, allowing for distraction-free communication. This eliminates common issues such as echoes or muffled voices, which can often disrupt the flow of a meeting.
Versatile Video Modes
The NexiGo Meeting 360 (Gen 2) also excels in offering multiple video modes, making it adaptable to various meeting formats and preferences. Each mode is designed to enhance the meeting experience in different ways:
Discussion Mode:  This mode is perfect for interactive discussions. It displays a 360° view at the top of the screen, showing the entire room. Below this, the camera automatically reframes to focus on two active speakers, ensuring that the conversation’s key contributors are always in view. This dynamic framing helps keep the discussion lively and engaging.
Presentation Mode: Ideal for presentations, this mode also displays a 360° view at the top to show the whole room. Below, the camera automatically frames the active speaker. This allows the audience to focus on the presenter while still having a sense of the entire room’s layout, making it easier for remote participants to stay engaged.
Global Mode:  In this mode, the camera provides two 195° panoramic videos that show all the attendees. This is particularly useful for large meetings where it’s important to have a broad view of all participants. It ensures that no one is left out of the frame and that everyone’s presence is acknowledged.
Patrol Mode: This mode is designed to keep the meeting dynamic and engaging by displaying the active speaker on the right side of the screen. On the left, the camera automatically pans to display each attendee in turn. This creates a natural flow of conversation and keeps everyone involved, making it ideal for roundtable discussions.
Room Solutions Capacity
The NexiGo Meeting 360 (Gen 2) is versatile enough to be used in various room sizes, ensuring that it meets the needs of different meeting environments:
Small Room Solutions (Capacity: 1-4 people): This 360° conference camera ensures that everyone gets their turn in the spotlight, making it perfect for smaller, more intimate meetings. It creates immersive hybrid meeting experiences that offer equal opportunities for remote and in-room participants to be seen, heard, and acknowledged.
Medium Room Solutions (Capacity: 5-15 people):  For mid-sized meetings, the NexiGo Meeting 360 ensures clear visibility and audibility for all participants, maintaining a balanced and inclusive environment. The versatile video modes help keep everyone engaged, regardless of their location.
Large Room Solutions (Capacity: 16-30 people):  In larger meeting spaces, the camera’s ability to provide a better view of the conference room ensures that everyone at the table feels included. This makes hybrid meetings much more collaborative, as it allows the entire team to participate fully, whether they are in the room or joining remotely.
Overall, the NexiGo Meeting 360 (Gen 2) 360-Degree Smart Video Conference Camera is an excellent addition to any modern office setup. Its ease of use, coupled with outstanding video and audio quality, makes it a valuable tool for enhancing communication and collaboration in both small and large meetings. Whether your team is fully remote, hybrid, or entirely in-office, this camera ensures that every participant is seen and heard clearly. The versatile video modes and room capacity options further enhance its appeal, allowing you to tailor the meeting experience to suit your specific needs. We highly recommend it to any organization looking to upgrade their video conferencing capabilities. Contact us at support@southridgetech.com or call 203-431- 8324 for more details.
