Crestron 1 Beyond Automate VX
Automate VX watches who's speaking and cuts between cameras like a broadcast director — the Crestron 1 Beyond system behind the most talked-about hybrid rooms in the industry.
What it is
The AI director for multi-camera rooms.
The question every big hybrid room eventually asks is 'why does this feel like CCTV?' — and Automate VX is the industry's leading answer. It listens to the room's microphones, knows who's talking and where they sit, and cuts cameras like a director would.
The Shure pairing is the classic recipe: an MXA ceiling array reports talker positions, Automate VX matches them to camera presets, and the far end watches a produced conversation — wide shot for the room, close-up for the speaker, smooth cuts in between.
It's one of the most discussed systems in professional AV for a reason: it delivers the 'broadcast-quality meeting' promise that AI-in-AV keeps making, and it does it inside certified Teams and Zoom workflows.
