the challenge

IU Health is committed to making Indiana one of the healthiest states in the nation. This mission extends beyond patient care to include the tools and technologies that support its staff to work efficiently and effectively. In their Fairbanks Hall building, an executive boardroom had become outdated and in need of an overhaul. IU Health needed to find a solution that would deliver a superior experience and be able to handle the various wood and glass parallel surfaces.

the solution

IU Health turned to American Sound for their expertise to implement a high-performance, multi-camera AV system that could support high-level meetings and important hybrid video presentations. Supporting from ideation to implementation, American Sound knew they could rely on the Crestron intelligent video portfolio.

the technology

For this new boardroom, a key requirement was adding in presenter tracking and multiple camera angles that could detect the participants in the room, so that the far-end audience could have the best view of all discussions. Crestron 1 Beyond cameras and the Automate VX multi-camera speaker tracking solution work in tandem, using audio and visual cues to capture the best possible angle of the activity in the room. The IU Health Executive team is able to focus on the topics of their meetings rather than worry about how to operate a system with manual controls. The Crestron solution raises the bar for hybrid meeting interactions, allowing every participants to be seen and heard.

Six 1 Beyond auto tracking cameras, work in tandem with 12 tabletop microphones. Customized camera presets allowed for system tweaks that could adapt to the setup of the room. End users benefit from these adjustments, which have accounted for variance in speaker volume, height, hearing capabilities, and more. Camera positioning was also carefully thought out to limit the visibility of camera movement from the far end, resulting in a more polished and high-quality hybrid meeting experience.

Apart from requirement for improved camera tracking, IU Health was also seeking a solution certified for Microsoft Team® Rooms. The Automates VX system, certified for both large and extra-large room, was the ideal solution for this space. With the Crestron Flex integration, the boardroom delivers a renowned meeting experience for its most important collaboration. An enhanced audio experience also involved binging in new audio sources and destinations to improve the fidelity of conversations within the room.

 
"To IU Health, Crestron has always been a quality standard for AV. This was no different."
