Imagine you're in a courtroom, and instead of just having one camera capturing the entire scene, you have several cameras placed strategically around the room. Each camera provides a different angle, ensuring that every important detail is captured and nothing is missed. This is similar to what Microsoft Teams is doing with its new feature for Teams Rooms on Windows.

With this update, when you're in a meeting room equipped with Teams Rooms, you can now see multiple camera views on the front-of-room display. Think of it like having a security system with multiple monitors showing different parts of a building. Each monitor gives you a different perspective, so you can keep an eye on everything happening simultaneously.

This feature is particularly useful for in-room users because it allows them to see all the camera streams that remote participants are viewing. It's like having a mirror that shows you what others are seeing, ensuring that everyone is on the same page and no one is left out of the conversation.

To access this feature, a Teams Rooms Pro license is required. It's designed to enhance communication and collaboration by providing a more comprehensive view of the meeting environment. Just as in a courtroom where multiple perspectives can provide a clearer picture of the situation, this feature in Teams Rooms helps ensure that meetings are more inclusive and effective.
