Solaborate, a Los Angeles headquartered company that aims to provide professionals and companies tools and services to enhance business operations and collaborations has launched HELLO, a 4K (video sensor) cross-platform TV communication platform. The product is a voice-controlled device that can be used as a smart-home gadget or office appliance. The HELLO campaign is live on Kickstarter and is estimating a December dispatch of pre-ordered products, says the company.
What is HELLO?
HELLO works as an extension of the Solaborate platform, designed for both individuals and teams working remotely. It can be mounted over a television and is voice-operated. In doing so, it hopes to substitute high-end video conferencing systems in a cost-efficient manner and help teams collaborate better. It is engineered with an array of four smart Microphones, a 4K video sensor and quad-core processor working together to guarantee that every person in the room is seen and heard clearly. Reportedly, it also features a built-in accelerometer, tilting and 130° lens of vision, to ensure easy setup on any TV and the image captured is of the highest quality.
According to the company, it doesn’t require any additional hardware installation and connects to a TV via HDMI cable which can be accessed via the HELLO app on the user’s phone. The setup can be completed by flashing the QR code generated by the app to HELLO’s lens. It also claims to provide solutions to problems persisting with video conferencing, wireless screen sharing, live broadcasting and security surveillance with motion detection.
