Sennheiser’s TeamConnect Ceiling Medium (TCC M) microphones were installed in 34 training and meeting rooms of the new office building of Hannover’s Chamber of Industry and Commerce (IHK), in Germany. Manufactured at Sennheiser’s HQ in Wedemark, near Hannover, the 36 TCC Ms were selected in consultation with integrator PIK AG.
The TCC M features patented beamforming technology, which uses multiple microphones and digital signal processing to isolate the voice of the person speaking, as well as Sennheiser’s TruVoicelift function, which is designed to amplify the speaker’s voice.
TCC M is utilised across various rooms at IHK Hannover, primarily for team meetings and hybrid teaching sessions. The first floor features a dedicated teaching area comprising eight rooms, all equipped with the TCC M.
Sennheiser says the TCC M eliminates the need for presenters or lecturers to use additional microphones, as it captures audio in these hybrid lecture environments.
In the CEO’s meeting room, the integration of Q-SYS with the TCC M facilitates advanced features such as camera tracking, while other rooms use simple USB cameras without tracking capabilities.
Markus Wermers, project manager at PIK AG, the main contractor for the project, said: “The decision to implement Sennheiser’s TCC M microphones reflects our commitment to providing innovative media technology to meet the requirements of modern conference and training rooms.”
Denise Beater, DACH business communication sales manager Sennheiser, added: “Our goal with the TCC M was to empower users in mid-sized meeting environments with superior audio technology.”
