LILIN North America Expands Branch Office with Automation Experience Center, LILIN Solution Center

  • Feb 28, 2014

LILIN North America, the US entity of IP video provider Merit LILIN, recently announced its continued expansion in the markets of IP video and automation with the launch of two new demo rooms – the Automation Experience Center (AEC) and the LILIN Solutions Center (LSC). Both new additions to the North American facility are designed to cater to security and automation dealers, serving as prime product displays and training centers.

Located just near the entrance of the LILIN North America lobby, the LSC serves as the location for LILIN's in-house IP Bootcamps and trainings with twelve hands-on workstations, a live video wall, and over 30 different cameras mounted and recording. With the nationwide education of customers being a priority, this new demo room will also serve as the space for all of LILIN North America's online webinars.

Just down the hall from the LSC is the AEC. Intended to pique the interest of home automation dealers and installers, this room takes form as a custom home theater, and serves as the main showroom for LILIN's automation channel. With a Control4 HC-800 Controller and in-wall touch panels, LILIN displays how seamlessly the NVR Touch integrates with the Control4 system. The AEC provides dealers with a solid solution in giving customers HD access to their camera system from their TV, via the WATCH TV section of the Control4 UI. Using the Control4 SR-250 Remote Control, users can search playback, control PTZ's, and even blow up full screen images of any individual camera from the live camera matrix. The AEC is also equipped with a 5.1 surround sound experience provided by TruAudio, making any movie come to life. All recording components are organized in-wall with the FORGE 28U Rack chassis for easy cable management and service access.

"Control4 is thrilled to further collaborate with LILIN; we see this as an exceptional opportunity to showcase our home automation solutions within an interactive environment that features the latest in personalized security and home technology," said Paul Williams, VP of Security and Communications Products at Control4. "Integrating the Control4 system within this experience center allows us to demonstrate the flexibility of our platform, while arming dealers with a solid automated security solution they can rely on."

In February, LILIN North America hosted the AEC/LSC Launch Party, inviting partners and customers alike to view the new demo rooms. Open to the public, the AEC/LSC Launch Party was held from 3PM to 7PM on Wednesday, February 26th. Parties interested in demonstrations or walk-throughs should contact LILIN North America at [email protected] or 888-287-8686 for more information.

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
