The latest release of Crestron Fusion is available as a private cloud service managed by Crestron as well a traditional software download option or pre-loaded on a rack server.
The release, demonstrated at InfoComm 2015, also introduces three-dimensional Fusion InSite that provides facilities managers with interactive, real-time 360-degree 3D visualisation of entire buildings across the enterprise and the status of the individual spaces within them.
Users can “drill down†to view each building on the campus, each floor in the building, each room, and all the technology in the rooms. They can check the status of and control devices in the room, such as occupancy or daylight sensors, turn lights on or off, and view lighting levels and set room scenes.
Managers can view all occupied or vacant rooms, as well as rooms that are booked, but vacant, so they can be released for use, increasing productivity in the process. Lights can be turned off in vacant rooms, reducing energy consumption.
The Fusion Cloud Edition is always available and at any location using a unique URL and host name. Optional multiple, redundant servers are available for additional backup security.
