When the City Hall in Norderstedt set out to upgrade its plenary hall, the goal was to create a seamless technological environment for municipal debates, public meetings and presentations.
AVI-Studio (Audio-visuelle Informationssysteme GmbH) was tasked with integrating state-of-the-art audiovisual technology to deliver flexibility, reliability and ease of use for a space serving both local government and public functions. Central to the solution was Lightware’s innovative AV-over-IP technology, specifically, VINX series matrix switchers.
The plenary hall required sophisticated technology to support the demanding needs of municipal meetings. Key elements include two large monitors, three fixed cameras, and a comprehensive microphone system. The podium monitors can be seamlessly extended or concealed as needed, ensuring an uninterrupted meeting experience. However, the demands extended beyond these features. The technology had to synchronize various inputs including video feeds, audio and microphones, whilst offering flexible control over content display. The system also needed to accommodate the in-house technician, who would need to manage the technology from a central control station.
Another key focus for the system design was energy efficiency. The VINX devices support Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing operation with minimal power consumption. This not only reduces the environmental impact and CO2 footprint but also lowers operating costs. Additionally, the low heat dissipation of the devices means they can operate without fans, making it possible to install them outside of an air-conditioned server room.
Lightware’s open API control protocols enabled AVI-Studio to easily integrate the VINX products into the existing third-party media control system. With an internal virtual matrix, VINX automatically generates redundancy. This means that even if the media control system fails, the technician can continue to manage the system through any standard web browser, ensuring meetings run without interruption.
