Topic: Move over HDBaseT, AV over IP is here

Speaker: Gerry Wilkins, APAC Representative, SDVoE Alliance

 

HDBaseT has commonly been the technology used to deliver digital AV over structured cabling systems – sometimes well, but sometimes poorly. However, in more recent years, the AV industry is turning to AV over IP for AV signal distribution. What is it and how does it work over ICT infrastructure?  This presentation will answer these and more questions that both the AV and ICT industries are asking.

Topic: Smart Cities and Urban Technology        

Speaker: Richard Morrison, ANZ Information & Communications Technology Practice Lead, AECOM

 

With Australia’s population in cities set to double in the next few decades, the focus on developing urban technology to support cities and transport infrastructure has never been stronger. The increasing pressure on infrastructure and urban services has placed an increased demand on smart systems and technology – considered increasingly critical to ensure that our buildings and cities use less and provide a better community experience. Smart Cities are as much about the new urban technologies that help manage cities more efficiently as about changing people’s and institutions’ frameworks and the processes that make cities more efficient. This seminar will provide an overview of how Australian Government is shaping the technology that underpins  our major city shaping and transport projects.
