  • The Logitech team identified opportunities to improve the work-from-home experience. Hardware and software solutions combine to address healthier postures, privacy that is clearly visible at a distance, document mode for sharing analog content, and auto light correction for variable working environments.

  • In response to a period with little innovation in the webcam and personal video collaboration space along with an increased need to support office workers suddenly working remotely, we saw an opportunity to create new products to meet this moment. We also realized this moment would extend into the future as hybrid work took hold for good. We call this “the new logic of work.” And we set out to design new video collaboration products for new workspaces, not just filling a gap but enabling new collaborative experiences.

  • In creating a product with broad appeal, we thought deliberately about the broader impact on the planet. We worked to qualify new post-consumer recycled plastic materials that would be simple to manufacture, that would avoid the use of post processes like paint, and that would be easy to disassemble at the product’s end of life. We also worked to create more compact packaging using FSC-certified paper while reducing materials and airspace to further minimize the impact of global shipping.
