  • Mute please!

    Great content and keeps you up to speed on current trends in the AV industry...when you can understand it.

I think you can handle this.

    That kind of breadth - from technical to personal to broad i... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Educating The AV Industry The Right Way | AVWeek 779
Q: How much should IT decision makers know about the underlying tech stack versus relying on integration partners?
The panel suggests that IT decision makers should have a solid foundational understanding to evaluate credentials and designs, but they should rely on integrators for hands-on deployment and practical implementation, using training to bridge gaps across roles.
Using Gestures For Control Like It's 2009 | AVWeek 765
Q: What is your first gut reaction to gesture-based control interfaces as a potential standard in AV environments?
Gesture-based control can be very useful, especially for interactive and educational contexts, but its value hinges on reliable input and the ability to track actions accurately. Without dependable sensing, gesture interfaces risk adding complexity without delivering the expected benefits.
MicroLED Will Be Worth BILLIONS! | AVWeek 759
