We want to find out what cool technology it can actually build in. while Louise were going to do into duo com Canada, were going to talk to 00:32. He is going to show us some of the greatest technology that you can get today. Let us take a look, that okay all right.
AJ: So what are some of the things that can people can do if they are thinking about taking their boardroom or their office to another level?
Ciprian: Well the possibilities are endless what really when you actually create a custom boardroom but in this particular situation that we have here on this boardroom. I can give you an example of the different components that are installed in here that I control their ones central control unit.
AJ: So what we have here is the Rack Mounted System, so this is flashed into the wall. They put the whole rack in the wall.
Ciprian: Yeah it’s a system, that’s a hard heavy rack that is able to hold a lot of weight and a lot of different equipment and this particular set up we have rack mounted computer which is a PC.
AJ: So there is actually a computer stocked in this wall?
Ciprian: That is right!
AJ: Cool! There is a little DVD player
Ciprian: Yeah that is right, so it pops up you know just like any computer with.
AJ: Yeah!
Ciprian: And then we our DVD player here.
AJ: Okay!
Ciprian: And we have a polycom video conference encoded, which allows you to do video conferencing, and it is a company by a camera Polycom appointive to zoom PTC Camera.
AJ: Wow!
Ciprian: This is a power supply cleaner, it’s actually it’s a monster power cleaner and it allows you to have consistent power if were looking for a;
AJ: IF you ever going to have like a server laxest anything set up here. You want to make sure that you got a good power supply.
Ciprian: That is right because the equipment is sensitive and it has to have a constant supply of power. We have a vortex Polycom unit here, which is essentially a very beefed up mixer. It allows you to make an audio in any kind of way of form, Okay!
AJ: So in a boardroom you might have like music. You might have a video conference going. You might have like a computer presentation going yourself like that, so lots of audios versus.
Ciprian: Lots of different sources and they can be output in any way of form and this is big robust here.
AJ: That a big daddy?
Ciprian: yeah that is right! This is a video matrix. It allows you to have any sort of video input or data input. It actually be able have a scaler in the back. There are two. They allows you to get really quick images and this one has, you can put any input you want into it and it goes to any or all outputs in the boardroom.
AJ: Cool! So now, do you have to be a rocket scientist to make this all work right there? How do you control this big thing?
Ciprian: Well it’s very simple actually, its control by its brain here which is the central control unit by the cistrons—
AJ: And cistrons pretty well known in the industry.
Ciprian: Oh yeah it is actually one of the premiere company out there and their good for boardrooms. They also do some custom home installations so they are very good system. Easy to control and it’s actually done through a wireless keypad.
AJ: Okay, well lets go and a take a look. There's one more quickly, this closes up so you got a nice clean look right?
Ciprian: That’s right, yes so its settle next to you. The sound also if you can hear it kind of defuses the sound as well. So it can be you know quite stylish as well. So this is the unit that controls the whole system.
AJ: So this is the little; that’s the brain so this is the medium—
Ciprian: This is basically if that’s the head this is the neck.
AJ: Okay, you drive it.
Ciprian: So this allows you touch screen obviously and its designed custom designed for this boardroom.
AJ: Okay!
Ciprian: And it allows you to have different options here for the light.
AJ: Now right up to the back I noticed that it’s running the duo com, which is your company in interface. Now that it custom thing that you have guys designed or the software I mean, or it’s like a fluorescent thing you branded to your own company. Like that, be like to get connected interface?
Ciprian: Yes it can be the get connected interface its we have to actually to program it in this particular language and code but this is GUYE interface. It allows you to put anything that you want in here. If you want to have all your video showing, if you want to have all your video showing, if you want to all your lights. All the different things, so yeah it’s really amazing. It always do many different things, so for this particular one we have our lights which are different there, some pre-sets here for the wall and the pots and so we can have them all on.
AJ: And this turn muff.
Ciprian: Okay all right, so why don’t we just do the walls here so we can and then maybe we just do the fluorescent lights again.
AJ: Okay!
Ciprian: So you know it is this blank one as well too and then we have some advance properties where we can turn them off individually.
AJ: Oh, cool! So its actually specific like pop it on and take it off it was sitting over the sea on and that’s like being on the spot right. Can we turn that one on?
Ciprian: Maybe that bald spot, you know they are shinier. So yeah, you can definitely control each individual one or if you are doing, a demo and you want to have something showing. It is really, effective for those purposes. And then we have screen control we actually have our main screen here but we also have some screens that are built into the ceilings.
AJ: Yeah!
Ciprian: Ceiling mounted the motorize screen so we can you know drop that down and you know comes down. And then we have our shades that go up and down.
AJ: Oh, it is brilliant!
Ciprian: Yeah, so it’s very, it’s very cool and then we have different computer sources. We have you know the DVD built in.
AJ: Built in to that wall there, that is right.
Ciprian: So were switching now the system just picked up the computer source.
AJ: Okay!
Ciprian: So basically, this is your whole board.
AJ: So if you want to have like a laptop or something that you been just bought into the boardroom could be on the screen. You could actually program it so that it takes that output on that.
Ciprian: Absolutely! Actually what we have in our table here is some boxes for our computer boxes under table boxes here. It allows you to plug in your computer, your internet, and audio everything.
AJ: Perfect! Okay so cool, so very custom I love it.
Ciprian: Yeah, yeah!
AJ: So this is a screen obviously, we have seen this before but this is one of the smart boards.
Ciprian: That’s right; yeah it’s not just a regular screen or projectors screen. It’s actually a touch screen interactive screen. So it is smart board, so it allows you to touch it and this is actually a web site.
AJ: To finding a presentation, I can sort of go back to that in a second. Abandoning your presentation, I can literally just go into my smart board take this up completely interactive.
Ciprian: That is right yeah and you can connect all those smart boards with a smart board that’s next door or across the wall for bigger software.
AJ: Yeah that is very cool.
Ciprian: And actually, it have a pen, so I still recognize this. So now, you can actually just go up and print.
AJ: Pretty user like friendly though.
Ciprian: Oh yeah, its very user friendly and its easy to go through presentation or web site or a demo.
AJ: So if some one wants to take their office or even a boardroom to another level your Canadian company Duo cam—
