In the era of hybrid work, attention spans are short and expectations for seamless communication are sky-high. What if your meeting rooms could go beyond basic functionality and automate every aspect of the experience?
Crestron Automate VX is designed to meet this challenge—delivering a broadcast-quality, automated camera experience that ensures everyone feels seen and heard, whether they’re in the room or joining remotely.
By combining intelligent voice tracking, built-in Visual AI, and multi-camera switching, Automate VX delivers a smarter, more engaging way to meet, teach, present, and collaborate.
One of the standout features of Crestron Automate VX is its Visual AI—a powerful, built-in technology that transforms how meetings are captured and delivered.
How It Works: Behind the Scenes
Automate VX uses a combination of multiple PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) cameras, AI-driven voice detection, and camera tracking algorithms to follow conversation dynamics. The system integrates with microphone arrays, typically ceiling mics, which feed audio data to the control processor. The Automate VX software then uses this data to:
Identify the active speaker
Select the best camera shot
Switch views in real-time
Avoid abrupt transitions by using "cut cues" and presets
This smart automation eliminates the need for camera operators while creating a natural, inclusive meeting flow.
How Your Crestron Automate VX Solution Comes Together
The Crestron Automate VX solution is a flexible, scalable system that works in a variety of environments—from corporate boardrooms and training spaces to classrooms and town halls. Here’s a quick breakdown of what makes up the system:
