HIGH-PERFORMANCE EXECUTIVE CONFERENCING

CHALLENGEThe University of Kansas Hospital, a leading regional medical center with a roadmap for facility

expansion, approached AVI Systems for a solution to its critical meeting and communications

requirements.

The executive staff had an aged off-site conference room. The older equipment caused meeting

delays and inconvenienced participants on a regular basis.

The hospital needed an on-site executive conference room that worked and worked efficiently.

A decision was made to construct a room above an open area through a structure of steel beams

and concrete construction. Essentially, this created a second floor expansion for the existing room.

The first stages of the bringing this conference room into reality were in motion. It wouldn’t be long

before AVI brought technology into the picture.

PROVEN PROCESS

SOLUTIONThrough careful discovery of requirements, AVI

developed several design options and arrived at

the optimal system for the room.

Front projection was not the most capable

solution, so began the search for rear screen

capability with a very shallow form factor and

extreme picture performance. System control

from various points around the room was

required for presentation assistance during

meetings.

The system provides a large, high-resolution

image display with windowing capability for

various sources. The shallow depth allowed

for a kitchen and preparation area behind the

display wall with a hidden door for access to

the conference room. The solution delivers

high performance source displays, video

conferencing with views from various camera

perspectives, leveraging high quality audio.

The focal point of the room is a two-by-four

BARCO LED wall with front access for support.

The system was housed in a recessed rack to

the left of the display for easy system access.

Directly in front of this is a well-appointed

podium with interactive capability, system

control, presentation status display and wireless

keyboard and mouse. The table has embedded

microphones for audio and video conferencing,

along with pop-up input boxes for various input

capabilities for the system.

The finished system creates a very impressive

display and configuration capability, which

meets the demands of the most complex

audiovisual support for executive-level meetings.
