HP is taking a big step into the future of work from afar with its new tool, the HP Dimension. This new setup works to make life-size 3D videos in online meets, with a great camera setup and a unique light display. It's based on tech from Google, first called Project Starline and now known as Google Beam. But buying this top-level tech will set you back $24,999.
Shown at InfoComm 25, the HP Dimension is the first gear made just for Google Beam. Here's what makes it stand out:
- Top-notch Looks It shows a big 65-inch light field screen. There are six high-res cameras in the frame.
- AI-Driven Real Looks With AI, the tool builds a real-looking 3D model of the person you're talking to. This life-size video is sent fast, and the AI helps fix light, shadows, and even where eyes look to make it feel more real.
- Deep Sound It has four speakers built-in, making a sound field so you don't need headphones for a full sound feel.
- Better Sound Option HP also has a new audio setup, the Poly Studio A2. It comes with mics for the table that have four mics each and a tool that can take up to 32 sound inputs (or eight of the mics).
At $24,999, the HP Dimension is a big cost. Google's own tests with 3D video meets show these deeper talks can boost focus and memory more than normal video chats. But, there's a snag this high-end feel only happens if both sides of the call have a Google Beam license and the right gear like the HP Dimension. If not, it's just a very big, very costly screen for usual video calls.
Given its price, the HP Dimension is meant for businesses. The $24,999 doesn't cover the Google Beam license, needed to run any video meet software on the device. HP plans to sell it to some business buyers in late 2025.
For the optional Poly Studio A2 audio parts, the table mic units are up for early order at $329 each, and the bridge costs $549. These sound tools won't ship until September 2025.
