The remote participants at site 2 will see the site 1 talker at microphone 1 on the right side of their screen

when the remote talkers are looking at the screen because the site 1 talker at microphone 1 is on the "right"

side of the camera from the camera's perspective.

By transmitting positional audio of talker 1 biased to the right channel to the remote site, it is possible to

make the local talker at microphone 1 sound as if they were coming from the "room right" loudspeaker to

reinforce their visual location as shown in the following figure.

Reinforcing Visual Location of Speaker

Reference Point

The relative position of talker 1 left or right on the screen depends on the relative positioning of the talker

with respect to the camera reference point.

To determine the relative positioning relative to the camera, draw a line from the microphone to the camera

reference plane as shown in the previous figure. In this example microphone 1 is panned to approximately

0.4 right (assuming the edge of the room is considered 1.0) relative to the camera location. The exact

amount of panning can be increased to create a wider spatial presence at the remote site.
