Russian developer Uvatron has launched a voice assistant designed for professional audiovisual (ProAV) systems. The tool integrates with the company's existing platform to manage IT, AV, and engineering equipment in conference rooms, classrooms, and dispatch centers.
The assistant supports natural language commands to control displays, projectors, lighting, climate, and PTZ cameras. It functions alongside existing interfaces like touch panels and web dashboards, allowing users to trigger complex automation scenarios with a single command.
The solution is built on an open architecture that supports multiple vendors and protocols, including MQTT, Modbus, HTTP, TCP/UDP, RS-232/422/485, BACnet, KNX, and SNMP. This allows integration into existing infrastructure without replacing hardware.
A key feature is the system's autonomy; command processing and scenario execution occur within the local network. This design eliminates the need for public cloud services, addressing security requirements for organizations that need strict control over their data.
CEO and co-founder Vitaly Yalovik stated that the assistant has already been tested in real-world environments. The company aims to establish the tool as a standard for managing multimedia infrastructure in corporate and educational settings.
