Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University (COMU), established in 1992, is one of the premier universities in Turkey, with a total student population of nearly 50,000 and an outstanding academic and administrative staff. Currently, it has 13 faculties, 4 graduate schools, 8 colleges, 12 vocational schools, 26 research centers, and a research hospital. The core philosophy of the university's development is to exert local impact while expanding to a global vision. Therefore, COMU enhances academic and social leadership by hosting domestic and international seminars and conferences.

Challenges faced

COMU University Conference Hall requires 1 chairman unit and 63 delegate units of flush-mounted conference units, equipped with gooseneck microphones of different lengths.

, combined with the speaker video tracking function. During meetings, the chairman not only needs to see each attendee's name and profile on the screen but also needs to know who is speaking at any time on the two large screens in the conference room. BXB Electronics' local partner in Turkey, Ilgin Elektro Akustik (Ilgin), had previously installed flush-mounted units with voting functions in the conference halls of Buca and Manisa municipalities. Due to highly positive user feedback, the Ilgin team successfully secured this COMU University project as well.

Solutions

BXB provides an integrated solution service, allowing COMU University to freely use five different lengths (32/43/48/56/70 cm) of gooseneck microphones and two types of conference units - tabletop and flush-mounted, both of which can be used with video tracking functions. For the requirements of this project, the Ilgin team selected BXB's UFO-2000 conference system, paired with 48 cm and 70 cm gooseneck microphones and the C901 video processor. Additionally, the UFO-2070 graphical control software was included to make conference management and settings more user-friendly and convenient.

The UFO-2050 conference main unit features an RS-232 control interface that can link with graphical control software, making it easy to pre-import personal information of all participants.

This system is paired with BXB's C901 video processor and integrates two Dahua cameras, allowing preset positioning for each participant's seat. Additionally, it integrates Amate ceiling speakers, Soundcraft's Ui12 digital mixer, Audac power amplifiers, and Solton's DSP206 digital audio processor.
