I posted yesterday on the new hidden AV installation at the Viscount Gort Hotel. Here are some better photos of the finished project. A shot of the projector lift lowered, the recessed projection screen and the happy hotel staff with the rack.

Viscount Gort Hidden AV
Grant's Perspective on ... projector lifts in the Viscount Gort ballroom
My last post asked people if they think that hiding the AV equipment is important. This week I'm at the Viscount Gort Hotel going over the final details of the audiovisual installation portion of their recent major expansion and renovation. They have included three infrared projector lifts as a part of the banquet room design to hide projectors when not in use. In this case it is for more than aesthetics, theirs is a multi-purpose ballroom and the lift helps protect the projector when it is not in use.
Here is a grainy picture (sorry just had my cell with me) that I snapped of one of the Inland AV service technicians installing the lift.
This is a great example of how hidden AV is becoming standard practice. Remember to vote on our importance of hidden AV poll, over on the right hand side of this page.

Hide Or Not To Hide AV Equipment Poll
Grant's Perspective on ... hiding the AV equipment in your executive boardroom. What is your preference?
When I speak of hidden AV, what I refer to is basically an AV system that is completely out of site when not in use. Projectors (See projector lift picture below) & projection screens are stowed into the ceiling and behind closed doors, monitors lift up into the ceiling or down into the millwork or furniture, audio speakers are the kind that are built into the wall or ceiling panel - virtually invisible, microphones are raised into the ceiling, AV connectivity is hidden in custom millwork enclosures, wireless control panel is docked into a cabinet, and the equipment rack is behind custom millwork or in an adjoining room. Out of site and out of mind but ready for action when required.
So let’s say your executive boardroom is being renovated. What is your level or requirement to have hidden AV? Please see the poll on the right and select the one that best describes your preference.
