As hybrid and remote work are expected to become the new normal, Google is working with Avocor to launch two new devices designed to make face-to-face and remote meetings more efficient. They are Google Meet Series One Desk 27 and Board 65. The new touch video device is the latest product of the Google Meet Series One teleconferencing system launched in September.

Google previously cooperated with Lenovo to launch a camera, soundbar and touch screen remote control, these products are supported by Google Meet. Now, the search giant is adding two Avocor video conferencing devices made for desktops and shared meeting spaces to this product portfolio.

Series One Desk 27 is a 27-inch touch screen Google Meet device, desktop monitor, laptop docking station and digital whiteboard, designed for one to two people’s rooms. You can use the Desk 27’s camera, microphone, speakers and touch screen by connecting a laptop via USB-C. The integration of Google Meet and Google Calendar means that your next meeting is already on the screen, so just click Desk 27 to start.

The device is optimized for Google Meet, but can also be used with other remote meeting services such as Zoom and Microsoft Teams. The Series One Board 65 is a 65-inch device designed for group video collaboration and brainstorming. You can click to start the meeting or say: Hey, Google, start my meeting. Participants can use a stylus or finger to write or outline ideas on the integrated digital whiteboard screen. Board 65 includes high-power stereo speakers, a microphone, a camera and a stylus.

The Series One Desk 27 is priced at US$2,000 and is expected to be available later this year. The Series One Board 65 is priced at approximately US$7,000 and is expected to be available in the first quarter of 2022. Both devices can be pre-ordered by customers on Avocor.com/google.
