Anaheim, California (October 23, 2024) - The University of Udine in Italy recently celebrated the opening of its new Scientific and Technological Library, a landmark project that merges architectural innovation with sustainability. Recognized with the prestigious 2022 "CasaClima" award for its energy-efficient design, the library stands as a testament to the university's commitment to environmental responsibility. To support this state-of-the-art facility, Extron's AV switching, streaming, AV over IP, and control technologies were chosen to create a flexible and reliable audiovisual infrastructure.
“For nearly 20 years, we have been striving to standardize our IT and AV technologies as effectively as possible,” says Alessandro Magris, Operations Services Management Office Manager at Udine. “Our primary challenge is to ensure the best possible user experience in both historical buildings and new projects that we develop from the ground up.”
The new library features a variety of educational spaces, including classrooms, study rooms, and the Aula Magna multipurpose room. Extron's IN1808 IPCP SA, SMP 351, MediaPort 200, and NAV Pro AV over IP System provide the backbone for these spaces, ensuring seamless AV switching, signal processing, and superior audio and video quality. The innovative NAV System enables the integration of multiple rooms into a unified event space, facilitating a diverse range of university events and conferences. This project exemplifies the successful application of Extron’s cutting-edge AV solutions to meet the evolving needs of modern educational institutions.
