It is the Logitech software! He uses the Polycom PVX with the Logitech video effects. He connects through our MGC to the endpoints and still has a bit of a microphone echo that he thinks is due to the internal mic on the laptop interfering with the external mic. He has not been able to disable the internal mic on the laptop, but is working on that. A friend of ours in Humble ISD, uses this technology to give spelling tests to elementary students! I thought that was a unique use of it also. Thanks for the comment! Good eye, Danny! It is the Logitech software! He uses the Polycom PVX with the Logitech video effects.

The 'car' that Shane sang through looks a lot like the Logitech Video Effects software that comes with the newer Logitech webcams. Do you know how Shane got this software (or whatever software he used to render himself as a car) to work through the Polycom unit? Thanks! Great blog!
