Hypersign creates the virtual events platform “The Arena”

This is a solution, developed with Crestron, Planar y UrbenTech, that combines the functionalities of video conferencing and broadcast studios. It consists of a series of viewing towers, each with its own streaming camera and sound bar.

The new situation has led to presentations and events combining a hybrid audience, which includes both physical and remote assistants. Industry professionals need access to studies that allow them to easily convey them to that audience. With this objective, Hypersign, in collaboration with Planar, Crestron y UrbanTech, has created “The Arena”.

Hypersign provides a tool that allows you to broadcast live presentations in a professional and innovative way. Existing video conferencing and streaming solutions pose limitations to the number of viewers the presenter can see at once, or they do not allow him to see his audience. These video presentations can also be undermined by distractions that detract from the speaker's message..

”The Arena” is a solution that crosses between video conferencing and a broadcast studio. It consists of a series of viewing towers, each with its own streaming camera and sound bar.

Presenters can see their audience, while attendees can choose where to “The Arena” They want to 'sit' and they will see the presenter from the camera angle of that tower. To ask questions to the presenter, They simply click to digitally raise their hand and then hold the space bar to speak.

The solution also features the latest Hypersign+Huddleup extension behind the presenter. Huddleup provides an interactive display that includes a variety of tools to enhance your virtual presentation..

The creation of “The Arena” has been possible thanks to the collaboration of hardware manufacturers such as Planar, Crestron y UrbenTech, powered by Hypersign software solution. The result is a professional and easy-to-use presentation studio, ready to broadcast digitally to any audience.

“As the first interactive streaming solution, ‘The Arena’ brings the professionalism of broadcast television to the accessibility and interactivity of web conferencing. We are proud to bring this solution, with our partners, to the market”, comments Neil Willis, Founder of Hypersign.
