ClearOne, Inc. unveiled the BMA 360D, the newest member of the world's most advanced beamforming microphone array ceiling tile family. The BMA 360D offers unrivaled audio performance and native compatibility with any Dante-enabled DSP mixer. The BMA 360D will be on display at InfoComm 2023 in Booth# 3061 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida.

The new Dante-compatible beamforming microphone array allows integrators and users to leverage ClearOne's industry leading microphone innovations in more projects and spaces than ever before. Dante integration in the BMA 360D enhances the array's functionality by delivering unprocessed beam audio on individual Dante transmit channels. Additionally, a smart-switched output is delivered on a separate Dante channel to provide the optimal mix of active inputs while enabling ClearOne's full suite of audio enhancements, which include echo cancellation, noise cancellation, and level control.

The BMA 360D incorporates the industry's only ultra-wideband, frequency invariant beamforming mic array technology with uniform gain response across all frequency bands. With proprietary FiBeam and DsBeam technology, participants experience natural and full-fidelity audio across all beams and within a single beam. DsBeam delivers superb clarity and intelligibility through unparalleled sidelobe depth below -40 dB, resulting in superior rejection of reverb and noise even in challenging environments.

Integrator setup is simplified by convenient preset beam patterns for common room layouts, while custom beam patterns can be created for unique floor plans. Combined with adaptive steering that focuses audio pickup on active speakers, the adjustable beam patterns provide impeccable coverage of every meeting or conference participant. The exceptional accuracy of ClearOne's beamforming and adaptive steering technologies also enhance the performance of voice lift and camera tracking functions for any attached DSP mixer.
