Extron Collaborates with Twitch to Enable Interactive Meetings of the Mind at Twitch HQ 2.0

Extron collaborates with Twitch to design interactive meeting rooms at Twitch’s new regional headquarter in New York, dubbed HQ 2.0. The executive boardroom and the All Hands event spaced require similar AV capabilities, with high-performance switching and distribution with overflow support. Twitch’s medium-sized conference room needs a seamless presentation system that supports wired and wireless devices.

“We chose to work with Extron because they embody our Mission and Values here at Twitch to empower communities to create together,” Kevin Little, AV Support Engineer at Twitch. “We know through collaborative efforts with them that Extron is a community, truly working hard to create solutions that work for us.”

When integrating Twitch’s meeting rooms, integration firm Diversified installed an Extron DTP presentation system, a sound system enhanced by the DMP 128 audio processor with SF 26PT pendant speakers, and system control using Pro Series products.

“Extron excels at digging into the details, and it’s this commitment to our company that stands out the most,” says Little.

Each room provides DTP matrix switching or point-to-point presentation systems that work with Twitch’s infrastructure and organizational requirements. The systems include wired and wireless connectivity, easy collaboration, session recording, sound reinforcement, and video conferencing capabilities.

Custom interfaces on the Extron TouchLink Pro touchpanels make it easy for users to start, join, and end meetings. Some commands range from selecting a source to activating videoconferencing system and control sound levels. 

The project took a little over a year to complete with employees finding the controls easy to use. Twitch AV also appreciated the minimization in network bandwidth utilization.
