Las Vegas, NV – June 6, 2018 –Crestron, a global leader in control and automation for the modern workplace, today announced that, through its new partnership with Huddly, Crestron Mercury®, the best-selling all-in-one UC and AV tabletop solution, is now compatible with the Huddly wide-angle USB camera. The new pairing provides an undistorted, ultra-wide viewing angle of all participants in a meeting room during videoconference calls. Live demonstrations of Crestron Mercury and the Huddly camera are available at Crestron Booth #2562 at InfoComm® 2018, June 6 – 8 in Las Vegas, NV.

“By pairing the best USB camera in the industry with the best open UC platform, Crestron continues to raise the bar for the Unified Communications experience,” said Nic Milani, Director, Technology and Development at Crestron.

 

Crestron XiO Cloud Service

Beyond simply supplying the camera, Huddly is also partnering with Crestron on next generation features that leverage the Crestron XiO Cloud service. Embedded in every new Crestron device, Crestron XiO Cloud enables organizations to reduce installation time by up to 90% with no programming or setup required.

 

Expanded Microsoft® relationship
The Huddly partnership comes quickly on the heels of a recent announcement from Microsoft regarding further expansion of the Crestron relationship around the launch of Microsoft Teams this fall.
