Position The Eagleeye Director Ii Camera System - Polycom RealPresence Group Series Administrator's Manual

Position the EagleEye Director II Camera System

Follow these guidelines to position the EagleEye Director II camera system to work with your
RealPresence Group Series system.
Procedure
1. Make sure the EagleEye Director II camera system is on a level surface or mounting bracket.
The camera's viewing angle is approximately 5 degrees above and 15 degrees below its direct line
of sight as shown below.
2. To ensure the optimal performance of the camera system face detection feature, follow these
suggestions:
• Provide ample lighting on faces of participants. This allows the EagleEye Director II camera
system to correctly frame faces, using the eyes, noses, and mouths as guidelines.
• Allow only minimal backlighting.
3. To ensure the best view from the camera system voice-tracking feature, follow these suggestions:
• Make sure that ambient room noise is quiet enough to allow the camera system to locate the
participant who is speaking.
• Set up the audio connection from the RealPresence Group Series system to the camera
system, whether you connect it directly to the audio output of the system or to an audio
processor managing the room audio.
4. Set the camera system on a wall. Place the camera between 5.5 and seven feet from the ground.
