Lightware – Sennheiser Integration
Lightware and Sennheiser joined forces to develop a highly efficient and immersive audio-visual solution to leverage user experience in meeting rooms.
The Sennheiser TCC2 ceiling microphone not only provides excellent sound quality but also offers accurate information about the location of the sound source. This forms the basis of Lightware's integration.
When integrated with Taurus UCX, running LARA software, this powerful solution will process the information from the Sennheiser Ceiling microphone and control a PTZ camera to visually track and focus on the meeting participant who is actually speaking. A significant advantage lies in its customization, eschewing a one-box solution (encompassing camera, microphone, and speaker).
As a result, in high-quality meeting rooms it can efficiently accommodate hybrid meetings.

Enhanced Remote Meeting Technology
The technology will ensure that remote meeting participants can clearly see and hear who is speaking at any given moment. It will also feature built-in intelligence to detect multiple speakers and adapt camera focus accordingly.
In instances of silence, it also provides a comprehensive view of the room – a capability essential for holding successful meetings in small to medium meeting rooms where participants also attend remotely.
Collaborative Solutions
As a result, remote participants in meetings held in rooms designed for eight or more people will enjoy a more personal and engaging experience, as they can clearly see and hear on-site colleagues.
In addition, organisations seeking to standardise this solution globally can rely on the cooperation between Lightware and Sennheiser, while AV professionals, including integrators and consultants, can implement a cutting-edge technology solution.
Experience the Sennheiser Difference with Lightware Devices
The solution works with Sennheiser TCC2 and Lightware Taurus UCX, running LARA. It can control any camera using VISCA protocol.*
Using the information from the TCC2, LARA identifies the direction of the voice source, processes this information by comparing it to presets, and converts it to a command, controlling the PTZ camera. The result is that the camera turns to the relevant direction and focuses to the speaker.
*The performance may be different as various cameras implement VISCA protocol as full-featured or just a subset.
Video Conferencing with
PTZ Camera Integration
Thanks to the recent collaboration between Lightware and Sennheiser, we've introduced an exciting new feature: instead of supporting just a PTZ camera, as in our previous setup, we now have the capability to manage another fixed camera simultaneously.
This advancement brings new possibilities, especially for larger meeting rooms and boardrooms. With this camera system, one camera can follow and focus on the person speaking, guided by information from the microphone through LARA control. The second camera provides a fixed view of all the people present in the room.
As a result, during video calls, viewers can now enjoy a more comprehensive perspective. They can see both the entire meeting room and the current speaker, as determined by the microphone's input.
Lightware Advanced Room Automation is our future-proof room automation platform created for AV integrators as well as for meeting room participants to help them simplify their everyday interaction with AV technology.
- User-friendly, easily-parametrizable software solution
- Modules that eliminate the need of complex programming skills
- Possibility for experienced programmers to write their own modules
LARA runs on Taurus TPX transmitter-receiver configuration, Taurus UCX, MMX2 series and will be easily configurable through a web browser while meeting room users can easily access their room’s control via a single touch panel.
