How much does it cost?<\/em><\/p>\n What are the advantages of iRidium-based solutions over classical ones?<\/p>\n In the sample projects we\u2019ll describe the functions and the cost of control solution only<\/b>. The brand, price and characteristics of equipment are totally up to you to choose.<\/p>\n The most popular AV projects are:<\/p>\n A home cinema usually has a plasma or LCD TV, a DVD player, a satellite receiver, an AV receiver, an acoustic system.<\/p>\n In the classical solution<\/b> a user controls this system from 3-4 IR remotes, each of which controls one device only. It is not convenient. As, if a home cinema is equipped with remote control of blinds, light, conditioners; a customer has to deal with not 3, but 6 remotes.<\/p>\n With time remotes turn into a big problem. They get lost and out of order. It\u2019s quite hard and pricy to replace them, for one thing. And for another, a heap of IR remotes on a coffee table doesn\u2019t do justice to any AV project.<\/p>\n iRidium-based control of a home cinema<\/b> looks quite different. A user from an interface on a smart phone or tablet can turn on\/off the TV set, adjust the picture; choose a channel or a film to watch, and, of course, adjust the volume and quality of sound.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Total cost of control solution: 755 USD<\/i><\/p>\n If a customer wants to control AV equipment only, iRidium-based control of a home cinema requires:<\/p>\n Total cost of control solution: 600 USD<\/i><\/p>\n How is a meeting room used? \u2013 To make a report, to show a presentation and to have a discussion.<\/p>\n How does it work in a classical solution<\/b>? Before a report one has to do the following: roll down the screen, turn on a projector and monitors, close the blinds, turn off the light, switch on the speaker\u2019s mike and mute all others.<\/p>\n As you see, one report requires a prolonged step by step preparation of a conference-hall or a meeting room. More than that, during a discussion a chair-person or a technician has to switch on and mute mikes of all those present.<\/p>\n iRidium-based control of a meeting room or a conference hall<\/b> is easier and more convenient. If you create in iRidium a scenario \u201cPresentation\u201d, a user can prepare the room for work with one touch to the screen of a smart phone or a tablet. When only one button is pressed, a programmed scenario turns on monitors, closes blinds, dims the light or does any other action, that is required.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Total cost of control solution: 755 USD<\/i><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Classrooms are numerous; and a traditional solution works perfectly here. In a classroom one typically wants to connect a teacher\u2019s PC and a projector. Difficulties with a classical solution<\/b> appear, if there is a long distance between a projector and a PC, as to lay wires in a ready classroom is troublesome, long and expensive.<\/p>\n iRidium-based control of a classroom<\/b> solves this difficulty. A user can control a projector and other necessary AV equipment from a teacher\u2019s PC, no matter how far they are from each other. No need to lay wires across the whole classroom. All you have to do is to connect a projector and Global Cach\u00e9 iTach-WF2IR via cat5 and place the adapter next to the projector.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n iRidium-based control of a classroom requires:<\/b><\/p>\n Total cost of control solution: 370 USD<\/i><\/p>\n To sum it up, capabilities of iRidium for AV & Custom Systems far exceed the ones describes in the sample projects above. Flexible setting and a capability to create individual interfaces allow creating customer-tailored projects. In such projects you can realize any wish of your client, but keep the acceptable basic cost of control solution.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" What can iRidium do in AV sphere? \u2013 To answer this question, we described 3 sample AV projects on iRidium.
