The Meeting Owl 3 and its clever panoramic sound and vision ensures everyone gets a piece of the meeting action

PRICE £825 exc VAT from meetingstore.co.uk
When Owl Labs launched the Meeting Owl in 2018, its innovative fish-eye lens, smart speaker tracking and active framing put the fun back into video meetings. The main drawback was its low 720p resolution, which the Pro version boosted to 1080p in 2020. The Owl 3 also has a 1080p resolution but adds a number of useful new features.
The Owl 3 impresses with its ability to present a 360° panoramic view across the top of the screen, dynamically splitting the main display to show the three most recent speakers and zero in on the person currently speaking.
It's powered by the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 605 CPU as the Pro version, but receives improvements to the Owl intelligence system that manages auto-focusing tasks and adds a micro-HDMI port for an optional expansion mic pod.
