If anyone has been wondering if the AV industry is back, walking the show floor at InfoComm 2022 in Las Vegas, June 8 – 10 was enough to quell any doubt. As editors of Future’s AV Technology, Digital Signage, Installation, Mix, Sound & Video Contractor, and Tech & Learning, we able to predict the success by the sheer number of Best of Show product nominations received. The percentage of entries to the more than 550 InfoComm exhibitors was greater than any year in recent history.
We pride ourselves in the integrity of our award programs. Each publication engages with AV/IT professionals who are expert in the technologies specific to categories we assign to them to evaluate. Our judges are CTS-certified technology managers, integrators and consultants. Except for a handful of entries that were done virtually this year, each product is evaluated during the first two days of the show.
We require that our judges talk with product managers or other manufacturers’ representatives to best evaluate products and solutions for innovation, feature set, ease of installation/use, and potential overall value to the installation/institution. Our nine judges cannot make themselves known to the companies whose products they are evaluating. Future pays our judges for their valuable time the expertise.
Congratulations to the R&D and product teams who have persevered during these unprecedented and challenging times. In response to a dire need for products to enable hybrid environments, many pivoted to deliver products that weren’t originally on their roadmap. To mitigate supply chain issues some leap-frogged existing solutions and redesigned components that might not have been on their roadmap for another three or four years.
We hope you are as excited about learning more about these products as we were as they were entered into the nomination process. The list is below, and in the coming days, we’ll share more details about each.
