Da-Lite Reveals How Integrators Can Transform Spaces With SightLine™ Floating Screen Feature at InfoComm 2022

Da-Lite will show how integrators can solve new challenges in conference rooms, classrooms, and multipurpose spaces with its new aircraft-grade cable drop screen feature, SightLine™, in the Legrand | AV booth W903, at InfoComm 2022. Available as an option with the company’s Tensioned Advantage® and Advantage electric screens, SightLine gives the impression of a floating screen. The single roller design suspension system features three or four thin cables that can accommodate drop distances up to 70 inches between the ceiling and the top of the screen. This innovation eliminates the need for the traditional black border above the projection screen and simplifies AV setups by creating space above a screen to place cameras or speakers while its low-profile design preserves a room’s architectural integrity.

“SightLine is a fresh approach to a projection screen that solves arising challenges,” said Wendy Cox, director, product management | Da-Lite, a brand of Legrand | AV. “Whether integrators are tasked with installing AV equipment in more optimal positions, need a solution that can transform a room to address a variety of functions, or just need something that’s eye-catchingly different, the SightLine feature is the answer. We can’t wait for everyone to see it live at InfoComm.”

CP Communications and its subsidiary Red House Streaming have gradually evolved their St. Petersburg, Florida headquarters into a specialized broadcast and production center that even produces and streams original programming worldwide for local and remote talent. The growing media and entertainment company has now deployed a varied network infrastructure of 1Gb and 10Gb pipes that interface with its two homegrown RHS studios and new RHS-36 truck, allowing the company to seamlessly manage live content coming from and going to any location globally – without leaving the property, and without leaving the IP domain if desired.

These advances, along with the ability for clients to bring their own production trucks to interface directly with the IP network infrastructure, have inspired CP and RHS to formally rebrand the facility as Red House Streaming Production Center. The facility has already hosted several REMI productions, including the Bermuda Track and Field Championships and two ACC Golf Championship events.

MSolutions will also unveil a new USB module for its market leading MSTestPro AV tester that will help installers verify USB cable and signal integrity.

MSolutions’ new remote powering option was developed to simplify and speed deployment processes for installers inside meeting and learning spaces. The application removes the need for a separate power source, and instead powers 12-volt cameras direct from MSolutions’ MS-6U1C extender over a single category cable for distances up to 333feet (100 meters) — and with zero latency.
