Q-SYS, a division of Costa Mesa, Calif.-based QSC, announced the completion of its acquisition of Seervision, a Swiss-based industry pioneer in AI-driven camera automation software. The integrated AI solution for Q-SYS will deliver a more engaging real-time remote experience, setting new standards for intelligent video in hybrid learning and high-impact collaboration spaces, says the company.
Starting August 7, 2023, Q-SYS says that customers will have the option to purchase Seervision solutions through Q-SYS sales channels, in a select number of countries. The company also has a planned global phased rollout in additional countries in the coming months.
Seervision’s AI and computer vision-based scene analysis enables presenter tracking in higher-ed or corporate collaboration spaces. Combined with Q-SYS Automatic Camera Preset Recall (ACPR) audio-based camera technology, Seervision extends the experience to include audience participation, ensuring that the far-end always sees who is talking. The result is a scalable, intelligent video solution capable of addressing the varying presentation and collaboration needs found in classrooms, lecture halls and high impact collaboration spaces, says the company.
“This is just the beginning of exploring what’s possible as we begin to fully integrate Seervision into the Q-SYS Platform,” says Jatan Shah, president and COO, Q-SYS. “With the addition of advanced Seervision technologies plus the engineering talent and resources from the Seervision team, we look forward to changing the landscape of intelligent video collaboration across many markets and applications.”
“We want to uphold our steadfast commitment to support excellence with the rollout of this exciting new technology,” says Anna Csontos, EVP, CMO and chief of staff, Q-SYS. “That is why each of these systems will be paired with Q-SYS support teams, who will provide initial design and commissioning support for Q-SYS + Seervision solutions, allowing customers to leverage our expertise to guide and optimize the integration process.”
