Crestron Electronics, a global manufacturer of workplace and smart home technology, has announced its ISE 2023 tradeshow plans by highlighting the new solutions that will be on display during the event.
The N.J.-based company emphasizes that technology experiences are ingrained with familiar daily routines. Videoconferences have taken over the workday, automation installs have skyrocketed, and homeowners are spending more time in their residences than ever before. Crestron’s 16,000-square-foot booth will feature hands-on, experiential demos that enable attendees to see how Crestron transforms the most mundane tasks and empowers everyone to come together in a way that sets them apart.
“ISE is a unique show that allows Crestron to exhibit the breadth of our product portfolio from all sides of our business in one booth,” says Brad Hintze, executive vice president, Global Marketing, at Crestron.
“Our daily interactions with technology continue to impact the productivity of our workday and transform how we unwind at home. The immersive demonstrations in our booth will highlight technology’s influence on our lives at home, in the office, and even in hotels where we may stay.”
Crestron Workplace Solutions at ISE 2023
Crestron stresses that it continues to evolve by adding software that complements and integrates within the Crestron ecosystem. Designed as a flexible, IT-friendly companion to its hardware counterpart, DM NVX Software is the first of these platforms to set the stage for the future of Crestron solutions. It delivers seamless HD video streaming and content from any source to any display straight from an existing PC or server with the highest quality possible. Crestron has also expanded its AV-over-IP offerings, adding a new strategic partnership with NETGEAR that will make select models of the M4250 line of switches available directly through Crestron.
The company explains that hybrid meeting experience is integral to every organization and will take precedence as the modern workplace continues to take shape. Meeting equity solutions like Crestron Sightline and the entire Crestron Flex Unified Communications lineup for rooms of any size will be on display to demonstrate the flexible applications that can take meetings to the next level from every space. The latest Automate VX update has made meeting equity in any large space even easier. This update includes the Intelligent Video Room Designer tool, which overlays cameras and microphones on a room’s floor plan to help visualize the interactions between the cameras and the microphones before the design is deployed. The Live Mode from Automate VX also enables easy adjustments to shot angles and widths once the solution is deployed. Crestron’s newest bundle, featuring the Crestron AirMedia wireless collaboration and Jabra PanaCast 50 video bar, will also be in action for the first time, showing the end-to-end BYOD solution that empowers organizations to reconfigure their workplace for hybrid-first meetings.
Addressing the hospitality market, Crestron’s legacy in both the residential and commercial markets has helped the company to deliver an integrated control solution for the hospitality industry. Since the first installation at the iconic New York Palace Hotel in 1992, Crestron has enhanced the hospitality experience across guest rooms, ballrooms, meeting rooms, spas, and everything in between for some of the world’s most prestigious hotels. For the first time, Crestron will demonstrate a renewed and targeted focus on the hospitality space, showing attendees how to transform the guest experience from check-in and throughout their stay.
Crestron Showcases Crestron Home Residential Solutions
Crestron continues to provide more ways for dealers to bring the Crestron Home OS experience into their customers’ homes. The PC4-R is the latest addition to the Crestron Home Processor lineup. It provides a Dell microcomputer that comes pre-installed with the Crestron Home OS, secured and ready for operation right out of the box. This solution will be shipping sometime in the first quarter (Q1) of 2023 to provide another option to deploy and configure with ease and speed.
At ISE 2023, Crestron will showcase its strategic collaborations with key partners provide comfort and peace of mind with technology solutions that address human-centric lighting, thermal comfort, and air quality control. Entertainment remains another pillar of the residential product suite with the Crestron DM NVX AV-over-IP and DM NAX Audio-over-IP technology facilitating seamless transitions from room-to-room or powering a entertainment throughout a home. The latest addition to the lineup is the DM NAX AMP-X300, a compact two-zone amp, which will make its debut on the show floor. This solution provides a flexible and scalable solution with a more granular system configuration, packing a powerful solution into a space-saving size. Native to the entire Crestron AV-over-IP platform, this is the first Hi-Z (high impedance) DM NAX model that provides an easy addition to landscape or surface mount speakers.
Following 2022’s Crestron LED light fixture debut, Crestron has worked closely with several fixture manufacturers globally to allow even more design options with third-party partners. Savage Marine is known for its specialization in designing high-quality lighting for the superyacht industry. At ISE 2023 Savage Marine will exhibit standard, fixed, and directional spots using Crestron’s DMX-C solution, and a completely bespoke solution with many different luminaires, all working on the Crestron Home OS platform.
