Speaker tracking in cisco

[p-ajay]

Hello everyone,
For our customers classroom, they have Cisco Codec Pro, three Cisco PTZ 4K cameras (one camera for the presenter, two for the students), two Sennheiser Ceiling tile microphones, and a Crestron DMPS3 switcher and controller. They would like to implement voice tracking using the Sennheiser Ceiling tilemic, so that whenever someone in the audience speaks, the camera can autonomously switch and track the person and again switch back to presenter camera. The below possibilites is what I wanted to verify:
1) Will it work with Cisco? How? (Perhaps we can send the command through Crestron)
2) If not, I am thinking to do the switching using Crestron DMPS3 switcher based on Sennheiser's feedback (Will connect all three cameras to DMPS)g , and then take an DMPS switcher output to the Cisco Codec? any thoughts?

If anyone has tried this setup, please let us know.

Thank you.

There is not an out-of-the-box feature for this. The closest would be PresenterTrack with Presenter and Audience but that would require different equipment. 

The microphones/DSP will need to identify the location of the active speaker and the control processor would send xAPI events to the Cisco Room Kit Pro instructing it to trigger the appropriate camera preset and switch camera inputs if needed.
