Tech Update: Why High-Quality AV Matters in Microsoft Teams Rooms

As hybrid working continues to evolve, meeting rooms are no longer just spaces for video calls, they are becoming strategic collaboration hubs that support productivity, decision-making and AI-enabled workflows.

A recent Shure article highlights how high-quality audio and video in Microsoft Teams Rooms can directly impact meeting efficiency, return on investment and AI readiness. Clear audio, reliable video and seamless platform integration are increasingly important as tools such as live transcription, translation and AI-generated summaries rely on accurate meeting data.

Poor audio capture or unreliable room technology can lead to slower decisions, repeated conversations, inaccurate transcripts and increased support demands. In contrast, well-designed AV systems help ensure that every voice is heard clearly, that remote participants remain engaged, and that meeting outputs are more useful and actionable.

At Nuway, we regularly design and install Microsoft Teams Room environments that combine intuitive control, professional audio, high-quality cameras and reliable room integration. Whether for boardrooms, training spaces or everyday meeting rooms, getting the AV foundation right is essential for creating spaces that are simple to use today and ready for the future of AI-assisted collaboration.

Next-Generation Assistive Listening Technology

Assistive listening is evolving, with systems such as Auri™ offering a modern alternative to traditional induction loop technology. Built on Auracast™ Bluetooth broadcast audio, Auri allows venues to broadcast clear, low-latency audio directly to compatible hearing aids, earbuds, headphones, smartphones or dedicated receivers.

Unlike traditional Bluetooth, users do not need to pair their device to the system. Instead, the experience works more like joining a Wi-Fi network, allowing users to select the relevant audio channel discreetly and independently. This is particularly valuable in public environments, where visible assistive listening equipment can sometimes discourage use.

The technology is well-suited to council chambers, lecture theatres, conference spaces, places of worship, performance venues and public buildings. With low-profile transmitters, portable receivers, docking stations and central management software, it can scale from a single-room installation to a wider building or estate.

Nuway has recently incorporated this technology into our new Bristol City Council Chamber installation, supporting the wider goal of improving accessibility, hybrid participation and public engagement within a historic civic environment.

Nuway can support the design, installation and integration of assistive listening systems like Auri, helping venues improve accessibility while keeping the technology simple to manage, discreet for users and ready for future hearing aid compatibility.
