Live experience strategy

"As more industries seek to implement immersive visual experiences, they'll need to adopt reliable, powerful solutions that give content creators and production teams flexibility," Jared Darensbourg, director of sales — visual systems at Panasonic Connect, said in the release. "The latest additions to our ecosystem of AV solutions respond directly to this industry need, helping customers worry less about the technology setup, and more about how they can take their creativity and audience experience to the next level."

Target use cases include corporate events, education spaces, and houses of worship, and the launch was coordinated with Panasonic Connect's appearance at InfoComm 2024, during which it will demonstrate a selection of the new products, among other solutions.
