    In Las Vegas, AVNation’s Bradford Benn is back in the InfoComm 2022 studio with Sam Nord, a representative for Listen Technologies. As Sam explains it, Listen Technologies helps people hear better. They make products that help with speech clarity in a variety of environments.

    This ranges from radio frequency products to infrared products, and of course—at InfoComm—WiFi assistive listening technology. While there are specific standards for organizations to meet in terms of sound, Listen Tech is focused on a larger goal of inclusivity.

    One product they’re displaying at the show is their Tour Guide Technology. For tour guides, field trip leaders, secondary language speakers, and translators, this can make a massive impact. This is needed across countless sectors—from hospitality and entertainment to manufacturing. 

    Here at the show, they’re excited to introduce attendees to their Listen Anywhere technology, now compatible with the new LWR 1020 WiFi receiver, which allows people to say within the WiFi system. Now, consumers can hit every point of ADA compliance.

    In Las Vegas, Intel puts on a live presentation for the participants at InfoComm 2022. The company calls today’s market the biggest transformation in modern history for the industry, and they believe Intel has the expertise and ecosystem to move the world forward. They know they can offer the solutions to help the world overcome some of the challenges we currently face.

    Paul Guillory, Product Marketing Manager at Intel NUC, explains that Intel has always been known for the Mini PC. That said, they also make other products: laptops, rugged systems, modular solutions, systems for integrated graphics, and more. Intel focuses on three main segments: enthusiasts, commercial, and IoT & Edge.

    The product they’re promoting today is the Nook 11 Pro, the newest 4×4 PC with no compromises. Now, they can do four 4K displays, and on the tall version, they have an expansion port with two more USB ports.

    Jeff Fox, Senior PMM, Hardware Partners at Zoom, tells us that his team focuses on delivering happiness—which is why they collaborate with partners like Intel. Together, Intel and Zoom work to streamline the end user experience with AI-based solutions supported by hardware like Nook 11 Pro. In the end, their goal is to enhance the ease of video collaboration and enhance the happiness of those using it.

    That said, their users wanted more. CRM, inventory management, and other community-steered initiatives have come to the forefront in the past few years.

    This year, Jetbuilt is launching its service module. This completes all of the major modules that users have requested over the last seven years.

    In Las Vegas, AVNation’s Steve Greenblatt is back in the InfoComm 2022 studio with Sean Matthews, Chief Executive Officer and President at Visix. Sean’s organization has been in the digital signage business for nearly twenty years, and its product is geared specifically for institutional communications.

    This technology supports the workflows of higher education, government, corporate campus, healthcare, and more. It’s very applicable to the AV integration channel, so this is a great extension of what integrators are already doing.

    Their product is designed of three components: a Windows design system, a CMS system, and an endpoint application called Engage. 

    One popular use case for these signs is event information. Consumers often want to extend information to outside the room, and outside the door. In their software, Visix has data integrations with the most popular event management systems so that users can pull information directly from them. The devices are often bi-directional as well, so that information can be shared directly from the signage device, too.

    In Las Vegas, AVNation’s Bradford Benn is back in the InfoComm 2022 studio with Andre Testa, the Senior Director of FPG and Hardware Engineering at Matrox. Matrox is part of AIMS, a networking topology organization that’s promoting IPMX as an industry open standard.

    IPMX is based on ST 2110, a standard widely used in broadcast. When Matrox saw that it had been adopted there, they wanted to capitalize on it, adapting it to the Pro AV industry. Since IPMX is truly an open standard, once it’s popularized and adopted universally, users can pick and choose amongst manufacturers. Essentially, it ensures that there can always be another solution without starting over from scratch.

    In the AIMS booth, Andre says that they’re displaying a Matrox Convert IP device, which converts an HD signal to IPMX.
