WEBVTT 00:00:07.399 --> 00:00:14.599 welcome to my unboxing and first look at the Logitech for business bcc950 00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:20.480 conference cam now it comes in a very plain brown box because this is not all 00:00:17.520 --> 00:00:25.720 about the uh you know the Fancy Pants packaging that a that a retail oriented 00:00:23.119 --> 00:00:29.400 skew would would be focused on but this is all about the functionality enabled 00:00:27.679 --> 00:00:33.559 by this device and some of the really cool soft applications that it can be 00:00:31.400 --> 00:00:38.800 integrated with so they say right on the package that it's optimized for 00:00:35.559 --> 00:00:40.800 Microsoft link Microsoft link is more 00:00:38.800 --> 00:00:46.800 than just sort of a regular consumer chat client it is a like an Enterprise 00:00:44.719 --> 00:00:51.440 grade chat client so it allows you to use things like instant messaging so 00:00:49.239 --> 00:00:55.480 this we're used to things like just sort of personto person messaging this we're 00:00:53.199 --> 00:00:59.280 used to conference video messaging this we're used to but it also integrates 00:00:57.359 --> 00:01:04.000 with entire room video conference systems all the way down to the webcam 00:01:02.440 --> 00:01:08.520 built into your notebook it also has a lot of collaborative sharing stuff so it's integrated with things like one 00:01:06.840 --> 00:01:13.759 note so you can collaborate on that as you go while you're giving presentations 00:01:10.400 --> 00:01:16.680 in Microsoft link you can um you know 00:01:13.759 --> 00:01:21.000 play a PowerPoint with sound and it'll work and so it works with I think it's I 00:01:18.920 --> 00:01:24.680 think link does up to 720p but this particular webcam is 1080p so if you 00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:29.640 wanted to use it with a different client then that would be fine due to the 00:01:26.680 --> 00:01:33.640 recent acquisition of Skype uh Microsoft link is also fully integrated with that 00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:38.159 so there's a lot of really really neat stuff you can do but what is the actual 00:01:35.720 --> 00:01:41.799 usage case for something like this and why is video collaboration so important 00:01:40.200 --> 00:01:46.880 I guess are the real questions that you may or may not be asking yourself so as 00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:51.439 companies I don't know Outsource to different places or as they you know 00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:56.320 spread out and have larger campuses as they grow you need to still find ways to 00:01:53.960 --> 00:02:00.439 collaborate that don't involve getting in a plane and traveling somewhere cuz 00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:05.079 it's extremely expensive and very inefficient the amount of time that gets 00:02:02.320 --> 00:02:11.920 wasted sitting on planes is absolutely ridiculous so it's not that easy to take 00:02:08.520 --> 00:02:14.519 something like a notebook which has you 00:02:11.920 --> 00:02:17.840 know a very narrow angle lens on its webcam and it's usually not the highest 00:02:16.519 --> 00:02:22.959 quality thing in the world although I'm not specifically picking on this notebook it was just the nearest one 00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:27.160 sitting here so crowding people around it to give a presentation or whatever 00:02:24.879 --> 00:02:31.920 else isn't isn't necessarily practical so this aims to bridge the gap between 00:02:30.160 --> 00:02:36.599 something like a full room conference system and something like the the cheesy 00:02:34.560 --> 00:02:41.280 webcam that's built into your notebook so I'm just going to show you guys how 00:02:38.519 --> 00:02:45.000 it assembles and why it comes with a remote I think the remote is actually 00:02:42.879 --> 00:02:47.920 one of the coolest things about it so we go ahead there's a little stick that 00:02:46.319 --> 00:02:51.680 goes right here oh yeah it has a fully built-in speaker phone so that's that's 00:02:49.760 --> 00:02:56.280 neat as well because it's sort of a one piece thing that fits in the middle of a 00:02:53.840 --> 00:03:00.319 conference room and then you don't actually have to have anything else 00:02:58.760 --> 00:03:07.200 sitting there I mean it looks sort of Space Age and cool and then um 00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:11.120 like the conference room at the at a place where I used to work there's like 00:03:09.360 --> 00:03:15.200 a speaker phone and then there's like sort of a random notebook there and then 00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:19.280 there's uh like another device and then and we're not even set up for for video 00:03:17.239 --> 00:03:22.640 conferencing yet so this guy right here replaces all of that stuff and then you 00:03:20.680 --> 00:03:27.840 can even use you don't have to use Link cuz it's just a standard webcam it uses 00:03:24.519 --> 00:03:29.280 h264 encoding for video so it'll work 00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:33.680 just you can use it with anything whether it's FaceTime uh works with 00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:37.480 Apple and Windows whether it's uh Skype itself whether it is something more 00:03:35.200 --> 00:03:42.879 advanced like Microsoft link or Cisco's sharing software uh let's go ahead and 00:03:40.840 --> 00:03:47.480 plug it in just for LOLs okay so let's do a quick product tour here there's 00:03:44.640 --> 00:03:51.640 volume up and down mute hang up uh start call that's for the speaker phone 00:03:48.959 --> 00:03:55.760 functionality here's zoom in zoom out as well as rotational functionality and 00:03:53.959 --> 00:04:00.720 then what you'll notice here is on the remote all that is built in as well so 00:03:58.480 --> 00:04:05.920 you can answer and turn terminate calls zoom in zoom out move it around control 00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:10.959 volume and mute things so the remote is sort of the magical part because being 00:04:07.799 --> 00:04:12.760 able to move the camera from one person 00:04:10.959 --> 00:04:17.160 to another or from one angle to another allows you to basically be sitting in 00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:20.440 front of it going okay you know blah blah blah blah blah blah blah but then 00:04:18.919 --> 00:04:24.360 I've also got this thing on the wall over there that I'd like you to look at 00:04:22.079 --> 00:04:27.520 so go ahead and look at that zoom in you got your computer sitting next to you 00:04:25.840 --> 00:04:33.240 anyway so you're monitoring what they can see cuz pretty much any that client 00:04:30.160 --> 00:04:35.840 ever supports that and that's the 00:04:33.240 --> 00:04:40.520 scenario so basically it's a highquality webcam that's mounted to an ARM that 00:04:38.320 --> 00:04:44.479 turns around goes up and down Zooms in and out and has an integrated 00:04:41.759 --> 00:04:47.840 highquality speaker phone I think that if you don't see the application of this 00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:51.120 then you're probably not one of the people who could benefit from it but 00:04:49.840 --> 00:04:54.960 something like this can be easily deployed and something like uh I mean 00:04:53.320 --> 00:04:58.720 you know smaller organizations don't necessarily have eight different 00:04:56.840 --> 00:05:03.400 full-size conference rooms with full video conference buil-in you know 00:05:00.840 --> 00:05:09.240 $500,000 thing so this allows you to take any small little office put a desk 00:05:05.880 --> 00:05:11.240 in it put you know a couple wiring Jacks 00:05:09.240 --> 00:05:14.080 into it and turn it into a video conference room because you just put 00:05:12.680 --> 00:05:17.080 like a whiteboard on the wall you have one of these on the desk you have like 00:05:15.840 --> 00:05:21.240 sort of three or four people sitting around it and it's usable that way so I 00:05:19.720 --> 00:05:25.880 hope that pretty much covers everything you'd like to know about it there's also a headphone jack just in case you wanted 00:05:23.960 --> 00:05:31.479 to use that the whole thing plugs in via USB so there's nothing sort of 00:05:27.880 --> 00:05:33.639 unexpected there and and uh Slick's sort 00:05:31.479 --> 00:05:36.520 of telling me something oh it looks like you don't have to use the stick maybe 00:05:35.080 --> 00:05:40.240 that's what he's telling me so if you don't want the height adjust and you're 00:05:38.840 --> 00:05:45.280 just going to use it on your desk and you just want something that's sort of a fully integrated speakerphone webcam 00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:50.560 thing then that's an option as well I didn't even I didn't even notice that oh 00:05:47.680 --> 00:05:54.520 okay it still moves side to side oh oh it probably yeah it probably still moves 00:05:52.160 --> 00:05:58.919 up and down in side to side that's very cool well there you go don't forget to 00:05:57.400 --> 00:06:02.680 subscribe Fest Tech tips for more unboxings reviews and other computer 00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:07.000 videos it kind of reminds me of the guy from uh Star Wars in New Hope that the 00:06:05.479 --> 00:06:12.759 the thing that comes out of the the swamp when they get pushed into the garbage compactor and it's like and then 00:06:10.280 --> 00:06:12.759 it just goes 00:06:16.840 --> 00:06:19.840 down
