What size room the Neat Bar Generation 2 covers, how many people it suits and when you need extra microphones.
Short answer
We recommend it for huddle rooms (2–4 people), small rooms (4–6 people) and medium rooms (6–10 people).
The specs that decide room size
| Zoom | 4x digital |
| Camera | Wide camera 50 MP, ƒ/2.8, 113° horizontal FOV |
| Microphones | 5 mics in end-fire array + 4 tracking and sensor mics |
| Audio pickup | 16 ft / 5 m reach |
| Speakers | Speakerbox, opposing full range drivers |
How room sizes map to people
| Room type | Typical people | Typical size |
|---|---|---|
| Focus | 1–2 | Under 80 sq ft |
| Huddle (this one) | 2–4 | 80–150 sq ft |
| Small (this one) | 4–6 | 150–250 sq ft |
| Medium (this one) | 6–10 | 250–400 sq ft |
| Large | 10–16 | 400–600 sq ft |
General industry guidance; furniture, room shape and acoustics change what works.
When to add microphones
The built-in microphones pick up about 16 ft (5 m). Add a table or ceiling mic if the farthest seat is more than about 16 ft from the video bar.
