Audio Video Term

Commercial Automation

Commercial Automation is an audio video term for Chicago-area smart home, theater, and commercial AV projects.

Commercial Automation is automation for offices, restaurants, retail, hospitality, and other businesses that coordinates AV, lighting, shades, signage, security, and schedules.

Example of Commercial Automation

A business can use one open/close scene to set displays, audio zones, signage, lights, and security-ready states for the day. In that kind of Davis business AV project, the term Commercial Automation would describe automation for offices, restaurants, retail, hospitality, and other businesses that coordinates AV, lighting, shades, signage, security, and schedules. Davis would use that understanding to account for business hours, staff controls, displays, audio zones, signage, and support procedures, then test the result in the actual room, document the related components, and show the client how to use the feature without needing to manage the technical details behind it.
