Case Study: Nestle uses AREC to Record Meetings

Dear ADENA Partners, this time we are bringing an exciting case study - Nestle in Chile. Thanks to the efforts of our partner Novotic, the company is using a complete AREC solution with Crestron, QSC, and Sennheiser for their new conference room.

Nestle is a global food and drink processing conglomerate with more than 447 factories worldwide. It started working in Chile at the end of the 19th century and recently increased its presence to 7 factories producing more than 1500 different products. With a significant presence comes the need for high-quality, outstanding communication, and so Nestle started looking for solutions for one of their offices in the country. A complete system with AREC, QSC, Sennheiser, and Crestron was offered by our partner Novotic - a solution that was just what Nestle was looking for.

Two PTZ cameras were set up in the meeting room - one to follow the presenter, and one for the public. The local audience is connected with remote attendees using Microsoft Teams. This local audience is using a Sennheiser microphone system, which is connected to a QSC DSP. The latter sends data to a Crestron control processor. Crestron processor switches active cameras on AREC LS-400 Media Station according to the active speaker and triggers associated PTZ presets. The combined and individual images from the local cameras and software videoconferencing are recorded by the Media Station and streamed for internal use by Nestle.

Case Study: Building a perfect mobile set for the Building Agency, Denmark

Dear ADENA Partners, we are proud to share a case study from Denmark’s Building and Property Agency. Accomplished with our Danish Distributor UNIT.DK, the case shows how portable AREC solutions can be used to conveniently record meetings in governmental institutions.

Danish Building and Property Agency is a part of the Ministry of Transport, Building, and Housing, and it is responsible for the construction, facility management, and rent of government properties. Their work heavily depends on communication, as there are delicate details to discuss and schedules to confirm in every project. With quarantine restrictions limiting in-person meetings, a significant part of this work moved into digital space, where it can be easy to lose track of important information. For this reason, the agency required a reliable tool for recording meetings. And like other governmental institutions of Denmark, it was ahead of the game when it came to adopting the right solutions for remote working tasks.

Opting for the AREC Stay-in-Class Portable Set and adding a PTZ camera and advanced microphone system to it, the agency got themselves a perfect mobile recording and streaming kit. The key element of the Stay-in-Class, LS-200 Media Station, allows them to capture, mix, and record/stream up to 2 video sources simultaneously in Full HD quality. For the agency, these sources normally consist of content from a computer, such as construction plans and documents, and a PTZ camera image that focuses on the speaker. In addition to recording these sources in a layout of the presenter’s choosing, the station also allows the users to stream their presentation to two RTMP platforms at the same time, and also automatically backup recorded material to a server. Like all AREC solutions, the Media Station is designed to be user-friendly, and so it offers many ways to control, including interactive GUI, web and mobile interfaces. And when the agency needs to use video conferencing software, they can use another element of the set, RADA Bridge, to convert Media Station’s audio and video and use it as a microphone and webcam in the chosen application.

With the AREC Stay-in-Class set, the agency can make sure that all meetings are recorded in high quality and preserved, whether conducted in-person or digitally.
