Just thinking out aloud....
What about a web-cam (maybe a wireless one? Never tried to use
them...) right under the mic, so that it takes a picture of the badge
and shows it on the screen? Everyone (right?) in a meeting has a
badge wit his/her/its:) name and affiliation, so privacy concerns
are just comparable to those of wearing a badge.
Except that this would preclude use of portable/wireless microphones to
let people engage in more effective conversation.
Even if there continues to be some sort of queue or other discipline to
determine who speaks next, we need to get away from the habit of forcing
people to walk through narrow rows of chairs and stand in a queue behind
a fixed-location microphone in order to speak.
