Tracking Modes
Besides the general group framing and speaker tracking mode, Poly Studio provides more modes for specific scenarios like
conversations or presentations.
The group framing and speaker tracking mode supports 4× digital zoom at most, while the manual zoom supports up to 5×.
Note: You can enable only one mode at a time.
Presenter Mode
Presenter mode frames the main speaker in your meeting room and follows the speaker when the speaker moves.
You can enable presenter mode for meetings where one person is the primary presenter or for distance learning so the
camera always shows the instructor. The camera zooms in to capture both the presenter and the presentation background
(for example, a large screen or a whiteboard) and follows the presenter’s movement.
Presenter mode ends automatically in the following situations:
• Someone other than the speaker faces the device and starts talking.
• The presenter stops talking for a while.
• The presenter walks off camera.
To ensure the best performance of presenter mode, do the following:
• Place the device within 3 m (10 ft) of the speaker.
• Position the device so the camera is level with the speaker’s upper chest instead of eye level. This enables the camera to
capture most of the speaker’s body along with the presentation background.
If you position the camera at the speaker’s eye level, the device may be positioned too high to capture all the content on
the screen. If you position the camera lower than the speaker’s upper chest, the speaker’s head may not appear in the
camera view.

Conversation Mode
Conversation mode frames two speakers separately and puts them on the same window in a split view.
Note: Conversation mode is a labs feature that has not been fully tested or supported.
When there’s a continuous and well-balanced conversation between two participants in the meeting, the device’s camera
moves to conversation mode from the group view. Note that the following scenarios don’t evoke conversation mode:
• One of the speakers talks too little or too much.
• Both speakers talk at the same time.
• More than two speakers talk while taking turns.
Conversation mode automatically ends when a third participant starts talking.

People Framing
People framing identifies the number of people in a single camera feed and displays them in individual frames.
Note: People framing is a preview feature. A preview feature is a fully tested and supported feature that Poly continues to
develop in alignment with customer feedback.
People framing displays in either portrait view (single row of frames) or mixed view (five frames display), based on the
number of participants identified. If the participants move, the view reframes.
People framing supports a maximum of six individual frames. When the device identifies more than six participants, people
framing changes to group framing, which shows the best view of all participants in a single frame.
