Medical
The medical sector has been using Broadcast and Pro-AV standard technologies for a number of years for medical research and the production of professional video presentations used for training and education through improved communication. However, the latest technological advances open up new and exciting ways to interact with key audiences, including patients, medical staff and suppliers.
With the advent of "unified digital communications" and in particular IPTV technologies, it is now possible to bring hospital staff training along with patient medical information to bedside TV screens, which can also deliver multi channel HD TV for in patient entertainment.
IPTV technologies can bring for example, the latest advances in laparoscopic and pathology procedures to the healthcare team via sophisticated HD video camera's direct from the operating theatre, to HD video projectors and screens in the hospital auditorium or training room.
Digital Signage can display key health messages to out patients in a waiting area's, provide way finding information in multi cultural languages for hospital visitors, and, at the other end of the scale, provide advertising opportunities as a potential revenue stream.
There is now the opportunity for hospitals to upgrade their IT networks to fibre point to multi point capability, using the latest Gigabit Passive Optical Networks (GPON) technology which can deliver multi gigabit bandwidth to the user end points.
Whatever the requirement, IVC is experienced in creating tailored, workable AV and IT communications solutions that use best tried and tested technology available.
