Hall Technologies (formerly Hall Research) has announced HIVE Control, an AV system combining IoT, legacy control, and automation technology.
HIVE Control is comprised of three key elements:
? HIVE Cloud Control provides users with 24/7 control to configure, manage, and service multiple clients from anywhere in the world. This subscription-based asset management platform allows users to connect an unlimited number of rooms under one subscription for quick and easy integration and infinite scalability.
? HIVE Control uses a node-based architecture that does not require the need to maintain a centralised server or the purchase of gateway devices. Instead, the HIVE Touch and HIVE Node are designed to directly connect to all existing AV hardware, including legacy devices without the need for programming.
? The HIVE Touch is an all-in-one, elegant touch panel display engineered to control any ProAV hardware and automation devices in a room. The HIVE Touch is adaptable to any space and application.
HIVE Control system is suitable for issues seen in education, corporate, and hospitality.
HIVE Control is the first of many products will launch over the course of the year, including its newest presentation switcher, the EMCEE200, which is launchd today. The EMCEE200 is HIVE compatible and gives presenters and educators the ability to confidently present content at up to 4K@60 with zero latency, and in multiview form, record to an external storage device or capture it in 4K to stream live.
The suite of HIVE Control products and the EMCEE will start shipping in early Q2.
