1. A workspace management system comprising:
a mobile user device having a first side and a second side, the mobile user device having
a first wireless communication interface communicatively coupled to a cloud network,
an optical imaging camera positioned on the first side of said mobile user device,
a first light detection and ranging (LIDAR) camera disposed on the first side, and
a display screen disposed on said second side of said mobile user device;
a conferencing device having an outer enclosure, the conferencing device including
a display screen housed withing said outer enclosure,
a bezel cover that forms a part of the outer enclosure and covers said display screen, wherein said bezel cover includes an electrochromatic region that is transparent when electrically energized and said electrochromatic region is opaque when de-energized;
a three-dimensional object encoded with a symbology for representing data in the x-direction, y-direction, and z-direction, said three-dimensional object disposed behind said electrochromatic region of said bezel cover and inside the interior of said enclosure; and
a remote cloud server having a network interface communicatively coupled to said remote cloud server, the remote cloud server having CPU and a nonvolatile storage wherein said nonvolatile storage tangibly embodies instructions executable by said central processing unit for generating an authentication token to be shown on the display screen portion of said conferencing device, encoding said authentication token in a QR-Code for display on said display screen, transmitting said authentication token to said conferencing device, authenticating said authentication token after it is received from said mobile user device, transmitting instructions to said bezel cover of said conferencing device to energize said electrochromatic region, and authenticating information received from said mobile user device containing data from a capture by said first LIDAR camera of said three-dimensional object.
