AV Integrator: Premier Network Solutions, Cincinnati
Now here's a different kind of integration project. Premier Network Solutions was tasked with integrating AV with a human physiological monitoring system from Mindware Technologies at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government. The latter wanted to study how human emotional and physical responses to stimulation affect their decisions.

Best of all, the lighting, AV, and communications can be reconfigured to handle individuals or larger groups.
