With its three modes – Fix, Follow and 360°, the microphone directivity can be adjusted to a point in one fixed direction, dynamically follow speaker or cover the whole room.
The GECKO 360° also takes care of playback thanks to its down firing loud speaker. The speaker itself is compact, easy to carry, easily connects with mobile devices and runs on a battery.
