Businesses around the country are investing in audiovisual technology to bring their brands to life. From Times Square to the bright lights of Las Vegas, we’re getting an inside look into what makes these projects must-see attractions.

Holiday in the Sun

We begin in Bradenton, Florida, where we’ll see how the Crown Design Group is constructing an interactive experience for the holiday season. Business partners Ben Graham and Garrett Walker built their reputation by creating a renowned AV department for Bayside Community Church and its campuses in the Tampa area, and now they’re out on their own.

On this job, they’re teaming up with with Bayside and Ben’s father, Mike Graham, to provide sound, lighting and special effects for an interactive walkthrough of Bethlehem for the Bayside holiday show. It’s expected to draw thousands of families from around the region, so the stakes are high.

On The Next Episode

Just north of Dallas, in Denton, Texas, is the University of North Texas. In recent years, the university has made tremendous strides. In particular, investment in the athletic department has become a focus.

With the importance of football in Texas, more than 60 area high schools have indoor practice and event facilities. It has become a standard for the health and safety of the players and a huge recruiting tool, so North Texas knew it had to build one in order to be competitive.

To get the job done, they hired Electro Acoustics to turn their blueprint into reality. On the ground is Luke Jordan, an integrator with experience in designing, installing and servicing professional AV systems.

Sony’s BRAVIA Pro displays run VITEC Avedia IPTV with no external media player

Sony’s BRAVIA Pro displays run VITEC Avedia IPTV with no external media player

Sony Electronics and VITEC announced a global integration that lets Sony BRAVIA professional displays run VITEC’s Avedia IPTV and digital signage software natively, eliminating external media players, according to PR Newswire and AV Magazine. Management runs through VITEC’s CMS, and the companies say it can scale to thousands of displays across corporate, hospitality, healthcare, venues, and public facilities, per PR Newswire and invidis. For enterprise IT and facilities teams, the practical shift is a new procurement and governance model: treat “display plus software” as one Android-based endpoint, then manage it like an IT fleet with fewer devices to install but stricter expectations around app lifecycle, security requirements, and vendor roadmaps. The announcement also lands alongside Sony’s previously reported Bravia Inc. joint venture with TCL, which invidis says will move operational control in April 2027, a reminder that longer-running display deployments should track who sets the roadmap over the life of the fleet.

  • 01Player-less IPTV changes the bill of materials: endpoints shift from “screen + player + mounts + power” to a single managed display, which can compress install labor and reduce failure points.
  • 02The phrase “thousands of displays” (PR Newswire) is the right scale test: if the CMS and network design cannot handle a four-digit endpoint count, this architecture won’t match the promise.
  • 03Sony’s display governance is expected to change in 2027 under the TCL-led Bravia Inc. venture (invidis). For deployments that will still be operating then, teams should address it now as part of contract terms.
