Android Rooms just got some admin controls for auto sharing both at idle and in a meeting. When the room is idle you really want to show the standard Teams Room FoR display and not the connected PC or Barco home screen. Anyone with a permanent in-room PC or external sharing device such as a Barco or Mersive will know what I mean. This auto share at idle is a problem for some. And the share button changes to stop sharing. If you do plug in HDMI it still auto shares into a room that’s idle (not in a meeting). These are displayed on the touch console and FoR display if you don’t have anything plugged in. More of a reminder of the options available to users. Share brings up two choices, although the choices aren’t buttons. Invite the Room displays more of a training guide for the options available to a user. Invoking Join by ID opens the same screen as before Quite a lot. You will note that some of the things that were previously hidden under “more” have been promoted to the main screen. Join with an ID and Invite the room are front and centre. By popular demand, Microsoft is putting the room calendar on the screen just like in Android Rooms. The other big thing is the Front of Room Display. I think over time the touch controllers on both Android and Windows will be almost the same if not exactly the same. However, Microsoft is standardising on the Android look and feel on all Teams room devices. With the calendar box on the right and controls on the left. Although you will notice that the current Android MTR UI is different on the controller and the FoR screens. You will note that the new UI resembles the Android experience. Below are the touch controllers from the old and new UI for comparison The user interface is getting a complete overhaul.
