Today’s world is replete with electronics and computers, and increasingly these components work together. Combining audio-visual systems and computers, we can arrive at an automated AV experience that’s available to untrained guests in a fitness centre, for example. By combining security with a lighting system, we can easily trick a burglar into believing that someone’s inside an empty home. By designing dedicated touchscreen controls for a single meeting room with video conferencing at an office, we can ease the burden on its entire staff in their push to adopt video communications.
