Why MVS was brought in

Back in 2024 James Hambro came to MVS with a challenge.

They were getting complaints from remote users joining Microsoft Teams meetings with their townhall. They were not able to clearly see they faces and facial expressions of in room participants sat to the sides of the room.

This wasn’t the first-class customer experience that James Hambro has aways striven to deliver.

Just equipping the room with additional cameras would not have solved the problem so it was a real conundrum.

The sort of challenge MVS loves!

At the time Microsoft Teams software was not able to put additional video streams into their own window, so just adding two more cameras to cover both sides of the table wouldn’t have solved the problem.
