Spending extended periods of time in the living room has become a reality for more consumers as of late than ever, which is something the Crestron UC video soundbar aims to make a little more social. The unit is designed in three versions that are all capable of being paired with camera and sensor modules when required in order to accommodate video conferencing. This would enable users to watch TV separately from their home and stay connected through a video call in order to make the distance between them seem less.
The Crestron UC video soundbar is the design work of Noto Design for Crestron and identifies the ways in which we'll likely see video conferencing technology being integrated into more consumer products as we adapt to spending more time at home.
