The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) is the government department responsible for the safety of public works projects in the Philippines, as well as maintaining roads, flood control, and irrigation systems. The unit implementing BXB Electronics products this time is the Ilocos Sur District Engineering Office, located in the Ilocos Region of Luzon.

Customer Requirements

Belonging to the government sector, the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) undertakes many domestic projects of various sizes. In addition to internal departmental meeting needs, it also frequently holds meetings with regional representatives and external organizations. In 2019, DPWH completed a new professional conference room and wanted to configure an economical and multi-functional conference system to meet the audio and video requirements of meetings.

Solution: In response to customer needs, BXB Electronics provides

EDC-2000 Standard Conference System

. This system is configured via CAT-5e network cables and features three conference modes: Normal, Chairman, and Override, meeting the diverse meeting demands of conference rooms. EDC-2000 can support up to 265 microphone units. If there is a need for conference room expansion in the future, additional microphones can be added with a small budget.

The EDC-2011/2012 microphone features cardioid polar pattern pickup, which can precisely capture the speaker's voice without being affected by surrounding discussions or the sound of doors opening and closing. It also features a built-in loudspeaker; when the user speaks, the speaker automatically turns off to prevent feedback, ensuring a smooth meeting.

Paired with the HDC-713 High-Definition IP Camera, when a speaker activates their microphone, the system can automatically locate and track the speaker's video. This feature allows all attendees in the meeting room to easily see who is speaking, making the meeting run more smoothly and efficiently.

▲ By pre-configuring camera presets, automatic speaker video tracking can be easily achieved during meetings

With the development of the internet era, the demand for live-streamed meetings will also increase, allowing work-from-home employees or remote government agencies to participate in meetings by watching live streams. In the future, this meeting room can be equipped with BXB's

HDR-731 Streaming Media Processor

. HDR-731 provides 4 HDMI inputs, which can present the conference room panoramic view, speaker view, computer presentation, etc., in various customized layouts such as full screen, picture-in-picture, dual-screen, and quad-split. While live streaming, it can also record the video of the meeting process. Users can choose to record the entire session or in segments to keep records of every important meeting for future reference, effectively avoiding the labor costs and content errors of manual recording.
