![Museum Center](https://www.icbav.com/media/installations/47_01.jpg)
Cincinnati Museum Center
The sophisticated control systems used today for audio-visual applications only started to become available towards the end of the 1980’s. These include AMX and Crestron Control Systems Technology.
ICB immediately embraced this technology and by 1991 were performing advanced installations of high caliber. The Cincinnati Museum Center at Union Terminal was one of ICB’s first customers to take advantage of ICB’s expertise in this technology. At that time ICB provided fully automated control of 17 audio-visual exhibit areas.
The main exhibit featuring A/V Control System Technology is a full-size recreation of the original Cincinnati Public Landing, all locations managed by a single AMX Control System, providing centralized control of all exhibits.
All of the exhibit locations run on either automated cycle or local push-buttons, or from infrared proximity sensors. Wireless controllers can override audio-visual systems at any time to allow tour guides to do live presentations. Some of these exhibits require synchronization of audio, video and lighting effects. ICB Audio & Video continues to provide support, service and upgrades to these and other display systems to this day.

Basketball Arena
With 10,250 seats and 14,415 square feet of space, ICB’s challenge in this arena was to engineer and install a sound system that was capable of being heard in all locations over the basketball team’s very loud and enthusiastic supporters.
The sound reinforcement system that was provided comprised 9 clusters of Eastern Acoustics Works speakers positioned around the catwalks to provide 360 degrees of even coverage.
Since the venue is also used for concerts, graduations, trade shows, and conventions, a computer controlled digital matrix was installed to permit changes in speaker coverage at a touch of a button to meet the preprogrammed needs of each of those events.
The design concept of the sound system was to convert audio to a digital signal as close to the source as possible and then transport it by fiber optic cable to the control room on the upper level where it entered the control matrix. The signal then continued in digital form to the amplifier room where it was sent to the speakers.
Sound and video was also distributed throughout the facility to over one hundred video monitors and literally hundreds of speakers in the concourses, hallways, private boxes, bars, and lounges.
A media production room and a full satellite truck dock for broadcasting major national events was also installed.
Another part of the facility comprises several conference rooms and an executive meeting room all of which were fitted out with video projectors and control systems. A central equipment room provides unified AMX control of all of the rooms as well as serving as the central media distribution point.
Yet another level of the facility contains banquet rooms where large screen projection and sound reinforcement systems were installed.
Recently ICB designed and installed a complete arena sound system upgrade utilizing state of the art Danley sound reinforcement speakers.

![alt](https://www.icbav.com/media/installations/Overview.jpg)
Fountain Square
ICB performed the design and installation of AV systems in this well known gathering place in the center of Cincinnati. In the winter the Square features an Ice Skating Rink and associated festivities, and in the summer the Square is the venue for hundreds of concerts and events - all of which utilize high quality sound in the square and video on the big screen. The AV portion of the project comprised 3 major systems: (1) A video mixing and distribution system that routed video to the 24 foot by 42 foot video screen mounted on top of Macy's; (2) A sound distribution system that routes sound for the big screen and other program sources to speakers around the square; and (3) A stage and sound reinforcement system that is used for the many music events and presentations that are held on the square throughout the year. The physical installation behind these systems includes: A control room and racks with amplifiers and video equipment in the parking garage below the square; Cabling between all AV locations; AV connection boxes; Speakers and remote controlled pan-tilt-zoom video cameras mounted on poles throughout the square; A full stage with trussing and rigging to support the lighting system, Nexio line array speaker system, and subwoofers, and; A front of stage mix position with a Yamaha digital mixing console. The stage was designed by ICB with a truss and canopy that raises or lowers by pushbutton control using electric motors attached to the vertical support trusses. Everyday event operation is with the canopy in the raised mode. The lowered position is used for sound system and lighting adjustment as well as being a safety position if bad weather is anticipated. The whole stage structure was designed and anchored to withstand high wind conditions.
![auditorium](https://www.icbav.com/media/installations/34_01-10_400.jpg)
Auditorium
A major conference facility installation at this pharmaceutical company involved design and installation of audiovisual systems, lighting, and AMX control technology in a 300 seat auditorium and a large connected meeting room. Both rooms were managed from a control room located between them.
The AV systems were set up so that the rooms could be used independently or in combination. A third room in another city could also be patched in when video conferencing was needed.
Typically in a three room set up, the auditorium was the main presentation room with the meeting room being used for overflow crowd. The remote site would mirror the main presentation room.
The objective in use was that the presentation could be seen and heard in all three rooms and questions from any of the locations could also be seen and heard by all.
Consequently this installation was zoned for multiple sources with close attention being paid to ease of control and avoiding audio feedback or switching issues.
Although all major events were managed from the control room, each room could switch to user control at the podium for presenters who wished to control their own stage. This local control also was used for simple unmanaged uses of the rooms.
![Main Conference Room](https://www.icbav.com/media/installations/31_01.jpg)
Conference Rooms & Training Room

![Distance Learning Teaching Station](https://www.icbav.com/media/installations/19_01.jpg)
Union College
ICB Audio & Video was the integrator of choice for the electronic classroom and distance learning system. This historically significant facility serves the international community with its North American Archives and is one of only two Jewish Archives in the United States. The installation of a video teleconferencing system enhances the availability of international archival research opportunities and benefits the reputation of the institution through the educational impact provided by a system of such sophistication.
This state of the art facility is designed to allow local instruction, as well as multipoint video conferencing or distance learning. It achieves this goal through the integration of current display technology, the latest in audio processing, and custom control software on the AMX platform. The system has five video screens, three in the front, and two in the rear. Due to constraints of architecture the two front primary displays employ the sophisticated Draper Rear Projection System, combined with Sanyo video projectors placing images onto the ample 12' diagonal screens respectively.
The third auxiliary screen is a motorized 12' front projection system that drops down between the two primary screens when needed. The two rear displays mirror the two front primary screens for instructor confidence.
Instructors have their choice of the A/V display devices, which include local PC, laptop, document camera, VCR, and a DVD player. Capabilities also include a Star Tablet Annotation Monitor, which allows the user to write overtop VGA sources via an electronic annotation device and project the annotations onto the overhead screen. Annotations can also be saved and recalled in the monitor's computer.
The complex audio processing is handled via five Polycom Vortex processors. Along with the source audio and instructor microphones, there are also 38 ShureMX392/c push to talk boundary microphones for student input and discussion during video conferencing. All aspects of the system are accessible through the Graphical User Interface (GUI), an AMX CV-10 touch panel with video preview, located on the instructor workstation.
The custom GUI and control software were programmed in-house at ICB Audio & Video by an AMX ACE certified programmer which allowed for on the spot tweaks at the clients request. The system has two primary modes of operation, Electronic Classroom Mode and Videoconference Mode. Electronic Classroom Mode allows for local instruction, while Videoconference Mode opens the classroom to the world, literally.
The implementation of three local cameras, 1 instructor, and 2 student cams, coupled with the control system and push to talk microphones allows for a true face to face learning experience. When a student pushes to talk, one of the SONY EVID cameras will pan and zoom to that student, as well as send the video feed to the Polycom VSX 8000 for far site reception, as well as return to the previous display content upon release.
The center projection system can also come in to service during a Multipoint call as well. This allows two remote sites to connect, and each to have its own full screen in the local lecture hall, which allows the third full display for the instructional content.
This marriage of technology brought together by ICB Audio & Video provides the ability to smoothly interlace discussion with educational content from the vast archives of The Jacob Rader Marcus Center. This combination opens tremendous learning opportunities for all involved, and accommodates communication with an international community.

High School and Community Center
ICB Audio & Video designed and installed the conference room at this high school. The technology at this school is some of the most sophisticated in the state and their conference room installation is a prime example of this. ICB Audio & Video performed the complete bid spec design for this project including CAD drawings and documentation. This is probably the most significant school system development in the Greater Cincinnati area. Design included video projection and an advanced control system.
This high school installation included a conference room consisting of 2 rear-projection screens, 1 video projector, A/V Conferencing System, 52 mics (one at each student station), distributed and zoned speech reinforcement system, video conferencing capabilities, surround sound system, document camera, 2 student cameras and one presenter camera for distance learning, and Audio-Visual capabilities.
Each location has a microphone and via the matrix mixers in the system, speakers in the ceiling are attenuated whenever a microphone directly below the speaker is being used. Cameras automatically locate to the microphone in use so that an image of the person talking becomes available for teleconferencing or event recording.
In addition to the conference room, ICB also designed and installed a full theatre and multiple other locations of audio and video throughout the facility.
![Lecture Room](https://www.icbav.com/media/installations/26_01.jpg)
Videoconferencing/Lecture room
ICB completed a series of design/build teleconferencing/video streaming rooms for this Business College. Room 108 is one of the premiere rooms in this group. This includes four projectors and screens, robotic cameras, microphones, video feeds/VCRs, multiple monitors and a sophisticated control system over the entire installation. This particular installation was designed specifically for teleconferencing and multi-projector presentation. This installation required extensive initial planning as well as control system programming to achieve the end product. Even after construction delays, ICB achieved an operating system within the time frame requested by the University and to the total satisfaction of the administrators involved. Room 108 can be utilized as an electronic classroom or as a teleconferencing room using ISDN or IP. Different mode selections on the control system touch panel permit the instructor to switch between two operational environments.
Special features of this room include:
• One projection screen for local source, one for remote
• Two robotic cameras – one for the students and one for the instructor
• Automatic camera tracking of instructor during presentation
• Microphones for each attendee location

The Brew Works Bar
The Brew Works was a 160,000 square foot retail/entertainment complex located in the historic Bavarian Brewing Company building in Covington, Kentucky. Unfortunately, this wonderful concept was relatively short lived and the site has since been occupied by a regional entertainment chain.
Among the original project's many claims to fame was a beer selection in excess of 2000 brands (probably the largest in the world), single malt whiskeys, their own microbrewery, humidor, entertainment stage, coffee house, restaurant, beer garden, gift shop, and a massive wine, beer, liquor, and party goods retail outlet.
The emphasis was on quality throughout the complex, so superior brand audio and video components were installed by ICB to provide a truly excellent audio and video environment.
The distributed sound system featured a unique remote switching and level control system which permits personnel in each one of the 24 zones to select their own preferred sources and sound levels by means of local controls wired into a computer bus strung throughout the building.
This system also permitted zoned paging from any telephone in the building to any audio zone. 16 audio sources were available on the system including 120 channels of satellite DMX, AM, FM, CD, cassette, DAT etc. The video system offered satellite, off-air, VCR, and laser disk sources again selectable in every zone. The complex also included a recording studio and live sound stage.

Live Music Venue
This mid-size theater in Covington, KY hosts a variety of local acts, as well as many national acts. The venue can hold up to 600, so a very powerful sound system was needed to provide proper sound reinforcement throughout the facility. ICB installed the sound system, the monitor system, and all the digital signage in this popular northern Kentucky venue.

ICB Technologies
In the mid 1980’s, ICB started developing control systems to provide remote intelligent control of AV systems and peripheral devices.
The number of peripheral devices we control with our systems has increased substantially due to both the drive for energy saving and the improvements in chip technology that provide faster, more sophisticated control capabilities.
A logical outcome of this growth has been to establish a separate technologies division that is focused solely on the energy and efficiency control capabilities of the systems we design.
