Used to be if a presenter constantly checked his watch it was a signal that things weren’t going so well. Now it can mean your audience is completely engaged.
MeetingPulse, a suite of web-based audience engagement tools for meetings, has introduced the first-ever meeting software integration with wearable technology, currently compatible with the Pebble smartwatch and soon to be Apple Watch-ready.
“The key to a good live presentation is for speakers to ‘check the pulse’ of their audience and adjust accordingly. We’re just taking it to the next level, giving real-time, data-based knowledge about what the audience is thinking to presenters and leaders.” said Peter Green, Chief Creative Officer at MeetingPulse. “Making it wearable allows speakers to access that information, seamlessly.”
The MeetingPulse suite of web-based audience engagement tools collects data in real-time from audience members who have any device or computer that can connect to the Web. The suite is platform agnostic, working with Android, iOS and other platforms, and does not need an application download.
MeetingPulse can be used to collect questions from individual audience members and allows the audience as a group to vote on which questions they would most like answered first, to poll audiences live, and to gather a real-time “pulse.”
The watch’s tactile feedback allows presenters to literally “feel” their audience, and get real-time feedback without having to disrupt their flow during both in-person and online meetings. Learn more at MeetingPulse.net.
