What size room the Neat Center covers, how many people it suits and when you need extra microphones.
Short answer
We recommend it for medium rooms (6–10 people) and large rooms (10–16 people).
The specs that decide room size
| Zoom | Adaptive digital zoom (up to 4x) |
| Cameras | 3 x 8 MP, ƒ/2.4, 162° horizontal field of view (360-degree view) |
| Microphones | 16 in beamforming array, 360-degree pickup 16.5 feet (5 meters) |
How room sizes map to people
| Room type | Typical people | Typical size |
|---|---|---|
| Small | 4–6 | 150–250 sq ft |
| Medium (this one) | 6–10 | 250–400 sq ft |
| Large (this one) | 10–16 | 400–600 sq ft |
| Boardroom | 16+ | 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 (5.0292 m). Add a table or ceiling mic if the farthest seat is more than about 16 ft from the table-center camera.
