One of the most common video conferencing issues is the user experience. Whether waiting for a meeting to begin or preparing a presentation, managing the audio-visual systems, getting the lighting right, and connecting to remote attendees all take time and—in the past—a little luck.

Unless you had the good fortune of arriving early, preparing the room, and checking the connections, chances are the rest of the attendees waited in silence as you plugged in a laptop, connected to offsite participants, lowered the shades, and adjusted the lights. Sometimes, you called for the IT personnel to combat connectivity issues. 

Fortunately, Crestron integrated room control changes that. Here, we’ll explore what this system offers businesses in San Diego, CA.

The Equipment

Today’s video conferencing setup is a far cry from its predecessor. Projectors and screens have given way to smart cameras and 4K UHD displays. Beamforming microphones deliver crystal-clear audio, and collaboration tools consist of interactive digital boards with wireless connections, enabling ease of use and BYOD. 

Before the meeting begins, the shades lower, and the lights adjust. All this equipment requires interconnectivity, which is effortlessly managed to ensure a productive session. That’s where Crestron room control comes in.

The Control

All your connected devices, including audio-video, lights, shades, and climate, are managed from one user-friendly interface—the Crestron tabletop control. With one touch, you connect to all remote participants. The system also integrates effortlessly with Microsoft Teams, Zoom Rooms, and BYOD. 

The Experience

Now, you walk into a meeting room, tap the video conferencing button, and the display and audio turn on, connecting to the remote attendees. At the same time, the shades lower to the ideal level, and the lights dim. Whether performing an in-person presentation to clients, meeting with board members, or connecting across the world with employees or vendors, one touch is all it takes to create the ideal environment.

After the meeting, one tap shuts down the equipment, disconnects, and sets the lighting, shades, and climate to the ideal setting for a room awaiting use. In spaces with occupancy sensors, simply walking into the room can activate the control system and set a chain of events in motion. The systems transform, programmed to respond based on the type of meeting and the ideal environment. 

One of the best aspects of Crestron integrated room control is standardization. Every room is the same, ensuring staff know the process, saving time and frustration. With the right audio-video equipment, meetings are transformed from time-consuming affairs to high-tech wizardry, where collaboration turns thoughts into things.
