By Scott Kraft, Technology Producer – TechTalk
Your Utah Channel 3 team—led on the tech side by Scott Kraft—is ready for InfoComm 2026 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. With education running June 13-19 and exhibits June 17-19, this premier Pro AV event is the place to see how audio, video, control, and collaboration technologies are powering the future.
As a degreed Electrical Engineer, I’m focusing on the technical backbone of modern AV systems: robust networking, seamless integration, and intelligent automation. Expect innovations in:
- AV over IP and Networked AV: Scalable solutions that transmit high-quality audio and video across existing IT infrastructure, reducing cabling costs and enabling flexible deployments for everything from conference rooms to large venues.
- AI-Powered Control and Automation: Systems that learn room usage patterns, optimize energy consumption, and provide predictive maintenance alerts—critical for reliable operation in Southern Utah’s variable environments, including high-altitude installations like Brian Head.
- Immersive Audio & Visual Experiences: Advanced spatial audio, ultra-high-resolution displays, and integrated lighting control that create engaging environments for hospitality, education, and entertainment venues.
For Utah businesses, contractors, and facility managers, these technologies translate to lower total cost of ownership, easier scalability, and future-proof installations. We’ll check out live demos of unified management platforms that simplify complex systems into user-friendly interfaces.
I’m excited to deliver in-depth technical reporting from the show. Stay tuned for practical insights you can apply right here in Southern Utah.
