| Today's Top Stories | | #1 | InfoComm Rental & Staging Roadshow Sept 17 in Orlando | | | by David Keene, AV Network | | | The InfoComm/NewBay Media Rental & Staging Roadshow, Orlando edition, is locked and loaded and ready for its Sept. 17th date at Full Sail University. Full Sail is the perfect venue for the event– last year's stop there brought together some of the industry's top players for a day of education, tech tool demos, and networking that took full advantage of the unique venue.

Why This Matters: It's not often that an AV industry event takes place at a university. But what better place to hold a technology mini-conference, and demos? Especially when the hosting university is dedicated to the technologies at the heart of our industry and helping to build our next generation of professionals. One key here is that the presentations themselves will be great, large-scale examples of rental & staging technology at work. Registration is still open. -Cynthia Wisehart |

Why This Matters: Imagine a network of devices communicating without power or human intervention via what is being called "ambient backscatter". So far the University of Washington project has seen information rates of 1kbps over distances of up to two-and-a-half feet – both indoors and outdoors. –Cynthia Wisehart |
