(Updated) Microsoft Teams Rooms: Identify in-room participants with IntelliFrame people labels

Updated September 24, 2026: We have updated the timeline. Thank you for your patience.

[What and Why:]

We're introducing IntelliFrame people labels in Microsoft Teams Rooms on Windows to improve meeting clarity and inclusivity for remote participants. When enabled, this feature identifies in-room participants by name and displays a contact card, helping remote attendees easily recognize speakers and follow conversations.

This enhancement supports better hybrid meeting experiences by connecting in-room and remote participants more effectively, improving collaboration and productivity.

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 566700.

[Rollout Schedule:]

• General Availability (Worldwide, GCC): Beginning mid-November 2026 (previously mid-October) expected to complete by mid-December 2026 (previously late October)

[Impact on Your Organization:]

Who is affected:

• Organizations using Microsoft Teams Rooms on Windows with Teams Rooms Pro licenses
• In-room participants who have enrolled in voice and face recognition (People Recognition)

Platforms/Services:

• Microsoft Teams
• Teams Rooms on Windows devices
• Supported intelligent camera hardware

What will happen:

• IntelliFrame will display name labels under identified in-room participants’ video feeds.
• Remote participants can select a label to view a contact card with organizational details.
• The feature is enabled automatically when prerequisites are met.
• Existing Teams meeting policies for voice and face enrollment are honored.
• Participants without enrolled profiles will appear without labels.
• No change occurs if voice and face enrollment is disabled in your organization.

[Action Required/Recommendations:]

No action is required to enable this feature.

To maximize value, administrators may:

• Review and confirm Teams Rooms devices:
  • Ensure devices are licensed with Teams Rooms Pro.
  • Verify use of supported intelligent cameras.
• Review and update meeting policies:
  • Allow enrollment: Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy -EnrollUserOverride Enabled.
  • Enable name display in rooms: Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy -RoomPeopleNameUserOverride On.
• Encourage users to enroll in voice and face recognition: Teams > Settings > Recognition.
• Update internal documentation and helpdesk guidance.
• Notify users about this capability to drive awareness and adoption.

To disable IntelliFrame people labels, administrators can:

• Turn off in-room name display (labels stop; other IntelliFrame framing unaffected): Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy -RoomPeopleNameUserOverride Off
• Block voice and face enrollment entirely (no one can be identified by name): Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy -EnrollUserOverride Disabled
• Individual users can opt out anytime by removing their profile in Teams > Settings > Recognition.
