URC and ZeeVee, the manufacturer of video and signal distribution technology, have collaborated to make the companies’ control platforms compatible to serve a wide range of AV applications.
URC’s Total Control automation platform can now interface with ZeeVee’s flagship ZyPer management platform via a new plug-in that will enable full control of ZeeVee ZyPer Series AVoIP encoders and decoders. This will enable end-users to easily drive video walls and multiview presentations with advanced automation features and custom macro integration capabilities.
