What’s changing Continuous framing is a feature for Google Meet hardware devices that ensures participants are automatically framed no matter where they are in the room. We're making two updates to the feature:
Available on more devices: We're adding support for continuous framing on Meet-certified cameras that ship with our ASUS & Logitech room kits, specifically the Logitech PTZ Pro 2, Logitech MeetUp, and the Logitech Rally. This feature was previously only available on the Series One Room Kit Smart Camera and Smart Camera XL.Available for eligible devices by default: The toggle in camera settings for continuous framing will now be available for eligible devices. Previously, it had to be enabled in the Admin console. Now, unless you've explicitly turned it off in the Admin console, it will be available as an option in the meeting room, but will be toggled off by default. See more details below.
Who’s impacted Admins and end users
Why you’d use it Continuous framing allows in-room participants to be better represented in a hybrid meeting as it captures the speakers in the frame regardless of where they're sitting in the room. Seeing all the participants in the room up close makes it easier to:
Read facial expressions and body language Maintain eye contact with meeting participants Smoothly take turns in the conversation
Additional details Unless you’ve already explicitly turned off the feature in the Admin console, continuous framing will be ON by default on eligible Google Meet hardware in your organization.
If you would like to turn off this feature so it is not available on an individual device, the continuous framing setting is found on the device details page. This toggle can also be modified via a bulk action on the device list page.
Getting started Admins : Unless you’ve already explicitly turned off the feature, continuous framing will be ON by default on eligible Google Meet hardware in your organization.
