Host more equitable hybrid meetings with Zoom Rooms Smart Gallery
One of the biggest hybrid meeting challenges is that remote participants often cannot clearly see who is in the room. Zoom Rooms Smart Gallery helps address this challenge by displaying multiple video feeds from a single Zoom Room so remote attendees can see in-room participants more clearly.
Why this matters
When remote attendees can better see faces, reactions, and speakers in the room, meetings feel more balanced. Customers can build on that experience by adding smart name tags and companion whiteboards. Smart name tags can help make meetings more productive and equitable by making it easier to know who is in the room, while companion whiteboard lets an additional Zoom Rooms for Touch device act as a dedicated whiteboarding and annotation surface in rooms with multiple screens.
A simple customer workflow
Start by enabling Smart Gallery in a shared Zoom Room. Then, layer in smart name tags for in-room participant visibility and add companion whiteboard for rooms where brainstorms, annotation, or collaborative planning happen often. This workflow offers a practical path from “better room video” to “better hybrid collaboration.”
