Nextgeneration Conference Rooms

چکیده
The next-generation conference room will support an increasingly distributed workforce. As distributed meetings become the norm, collaboration tools used in conference rooms must be designed to seamlessly integrate remote participants in formal meetings and ad-hoc gatherings. In the Meeting Central project at Sun Labs, we have shown that simple tools can significantly increase meeting effectiveness for remote participants. As we extend our design to better integrate conference rooms, we must incorporate new ideas and technologies to improve the meeting experience for both local and remote members.
