Interactive features added to BlueJeans

Business has announced new interactive feature updates across the BlueJeans collaboration and live streaming platform to boost video engagement, aiming to better support cohesiveness in how organisations work today. To make it easier for customers to unlock the power of video and deliver game-changing experiences, BlueJeans Events now offers a variety of new and exciting capabilities. For presenters, the new Presenter Dashboard view gives them a clear line of sight into what the audience sees for a more cohesive experience, and the Presentation Upload feature enables access to presentations via Google Drive and Microsoft OneDrive in a seamless and secure way. For attendees, an expanded set of reactions provides presenters with more tangible feedback, and the attendee view has been updated with better colour contrast, clearer iconography, and improved usability. For producers, Smart Producer automatically recognizes the active speaker and shifts layout options to accommodate the best

possible view for attendees. These new Events features will be available to preview in Q2, with GA anticipated for Q3.

To help companies execute on their customer-first video strategy, the new BlueJeans Developer

Platform provides a developer-friendly set of SDKs & APIs to power interactive video experiences for nearly any kind of application. Lastly, to improve overall meeting quality and provide in-room meeting attendees with

better insight, updates have been made to the BlueJeans Gateway for Microsoft Teams, including the ability to automatically resize incoming attendee streams and advanced controls for Large

Gallery View to enable in-room users to switch over to this mode directly from the supported endpoint.
