Cloud-Based Platform Makes it Easy to Design Advanced, User-Friendly and Cost-Effective Room Control Systems
Kramer Room Control Solution, K-Touch 3, won the ISE 2016 InAVation award in the Control category.
“We
are especially proud to receive this award at our industry’s largest
global event as validation of the incredible breakthroughs the Kramer
team has achieved to deliver super easy, cost effective, yet incredibly
powerful control with the K-Touch platform,” said Aviv Ron, VP Business
Development & Strategy at Kramer.
K-Touch,
Kramer’s revolutionary, cloud-based room control platform makes it easy
for integrators to design, configure and update advanced, user-friendly
room control systems for lights, screens, sound, any AV equipment, HVAC,
thermostats, and more. With K-Touch, end-users can control any device
in the room over Ethernet. The platform is easily scalable to 100s of
devices, multiple rooms and multiple sites, all controllable from any
iOS or Android touch screen.
Non-Ethernet-based
devices can be controlled over Ethernet using Kramer FC-series I/O
connectivity products, including Kramer’s new FC-28, or third-party
devices. FC-28 has eight ports that include RS-232, GPIO, relays, and
IR. Kramer RC-series button controllers can also be incorporated into
any project to provide tactile operation.
K-Touch
lets integrators configure systems quickly with drag-and-drop
functionality and simple coding. Integrators enjoy access to an
ever-growing library of 1000s of device drivers and dozens of
programming modules (e.g., Apple TV, Foscam cameras, Vera™ Smarter Home
Control products, Centralite Lighting, Phillips Hue, and iTunes). The
platform includes Apple TV IP control, immersive full-screen mode and
support for iPhone models, including iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus.
K-Touch is ideal for any AV environment (e.g., Corporate, Education, Entertainment, and Houses of Worship).
Integrators
can offer remote cloud-based support and updates to customers without
having to be on-site. This translates to significant cost savings and
higher ROI.
The platform is easy and quick to learn.
Kramer offers a simple online training course that can be completed in
just a few hours. An extensive support database is available online and
includes tutorials, articles, videos, and sample project files with
additional instructions on performing both simple and complex tasks.
New
dealers can benefit from Kramer’s attractive K-Touch starter kit which
allows them to immediately start selling and installing the platform.
