Command and Control: Bridging Innovation and Integration

 

Command and control rooms, the nerve centers of many industries, are witnessing a dynamic evolution in technology and best practices. On this episode of Pro AV Today, industry leaders Dan Gundry of Barco and Jon Litt of G&D North America shared their valuable insights on this critical facet of the professional AV industry.

The discussion begins with the mention of a new group that emerged at Infocomm, aiming to bring about a paradigm shift in the command and control room sector. This initiative is dedicated to standardizing education and training, ensuring uniformity of best practices and thereby enhancing the overall efficiency of these mission-critical spaces.

The conversation then pivoted toward the differentiation between mission-critical and commercial AV tools. Gundry and Litt shed light on the specific applications of these tools within command and control room environments, highlighting the inherent challenges associated with each and their potential impact on the industry.

For those involved in the design, implementation, or operation of command and control rooms, understanding the implications of mission-critical AV applications versus commercial ones is crucial. These insights offered by industry experts present an indispensable resource for anyone aiming to stay ahead of the curve in this fast-evolving industry.
