This meeting room was designed as a fully integrated Crestron-controlled collaboration space, bringing the room’s AV, conferencing and environmental controls together through a single user interface.
A central Crestron touch panel provides users with one place to operate the room. From the touchscreen, users can start and control meetings, manage AV equipment, select and route sources, adjust lighting and open or close the motorised blinds without needing separate controls for each system.
Crestron control systems are specifically designed to integrate meeting-room technology such as AV equipment, unified communications, lighting, motorised shades and other room functions into one coordinated platform.
The system was programmed so the technology within the room works as a complete environment rather than as a collection of separate devices. This allows users to operate the space from a consistent touchscreen interface, reducing the complexity normally associated with larger meeting-room systems.
For example, a user can enter the room, select the required meeting or presentation function, adjust the blinds and lighting to suit the session, control the room’s AV equipment and manage the meeting without moving between multiple remotes or wall controls.
Crestron also supports integration between its conferencing systems and room-control infrastructure, allowing touchscreens to control functions including lighting, motorised window shades, AV and other connected room amenities.
The completed system created a fully automated corporate meeting environment where conferencing, AV and room automation operate together through one simple interface, providing users with a cleaner and more consistent meeting-room experience.
