AMX Control Systems Profiled for White House Audio-Visual Technologies

A recent profile in AVNetwork Magazine on how government technology managers and end users communicate featured a look inside the  White House Situation Room. Within its heavy artillery of communications software was a look at the integrated systems of our manufacturing partner AMX.

According to the article, the White House frequently uses the AMX technology and its  Modero Touch Panel technology (pictured) to allow different users connected to the system to control microphones, cameras and monitors in the given location.

Videoconferencing has come a long way, not only in business and social circles, but in government environments as well. IP technology has grown in recent years, and video conferencing carriage costs had dropped, according to the article. With the growth in sophisticated equipment, today there is very little to separate audio-visual solutions in IT. One tech director noted that AV is a critical, budgeted area for any IT department.
