Audio Video technologies are today merging with IP Network based technologies to deliver AV communications seamlessly over IP networks across the globe. Understanding both Networking and A/V technologies is critical to fulfill any Systems integration projects in the AV over IP space. The three pillars of an effective AV over IP integration project are
1)Technology Networks, Hardware, Software, Audio equipments, Video equipments
2)Space Interiors, Environment, etc.
3)Content presentations, Info graphics, etc.
While Technology covering the entire spectrum is essential for an effective delivery mechanism, it has been observed that Space and Content also play a very critical role in the final experience of the audience. It is important that the technology provider designs and coordinates with Specialized interior designers. Content of course is user driven but can be effectively developed to make use of the relevant technology incorporated for the audience experience.
