Innovative audiovisual experiences span connected homes, public venues, board rooms, and other commercial spaces. Consumers and workers expect access to premium and personalized technology experiences throughout their daily lives — no matter where they are — but there is currently no clear plan for compatibility among the numerous devices already in use in residential and commercial spaces.

Integrated Life at InfoComm 2018 represents the coming-together of all markets affected by AV technology and experiences.
