Airtame Launches New Hybrid Conferencing Feature

Airtame’s hybrid conferencing platform makes it easy for in-person participants to share their screens during hybrid meetings.

Conferencing Airtame announced the launch of its new Share to Call feature that solves one of the biggest pain points experienced in hybrid meetings by allowing any person in the meeting room to instantly share their screen into a Zoom or Teams call without the hassle of joining the call from their personal device (in which they have to mute their microphone and speaker, turn off their camera, and then start sharing).

In addition to making screen sharing faster and easier during hybrid meetings, Share to Call eliminates audio feedback when users forget to mute before joining a call to share. It also saves battery power since the user’s computer doesn’t have to use its resources to run a conference call. Plus, it also saves bandwidth on the local network—as in-person participants no longer have to load all call contents on their devices.

Users can now share their screen as a room host that started the call, as a local participant in the same room, and as a remote participant. The process is easy: one meeting participant starts the call as a “room host” using Airtame Hub. Then, a second user in the meeting room can launch the Airtame application, select the room/device and click “share screen.” An intuitive pin code then appears on the screen to verify that the user is in the room and permitted to share. The sharing user can select whether they’d like to share their entire screen, or a specific window (which ensures no notifications or unwanted content is shared into the call).

Once shared, the user’s screen is visible both locally in the meeting room and for remote participants using Microsoft Teams or Zoom. For local participants, it is possible to screen share through the Airtame desktop app.

Share to Call is now available on the Airtame Hybrid offering, so long as device firmware is updated to version 5.2, and the Airtame app is updated to version 4.6.3. The Airtame Hybrid offering consists of both hardware and software. Airtame Rooms—the software component running on Airtame Hub—integrates with multiple services, enabling flexibility and ease. Airtame Hub—the hardware component—enables the premiere Airtame experience for screen sharing, digital signage, and seamless hybrid conferencing.
