Future of Hybrid Work in 2024: Crestron's Role Revealed
In the ever-evolving landscape of workspaces, 2024 is set to bring significant changes with 40 AV/IT companies planning to release their roadmaps. This development is expected to revolutionise hybrid workspaces, making them more efficient and user-friendly.
One of the key trends predicted by Sam Kennedy, Senior Director of Product Marketing at Crestron, is the automation and control of user experiences in hybrid workplaces. This automation will extend to lighting, shades, and monitoring inputs, with occupancy sensors automatically adjusting these elements when a person enters a room.
The lighting and shading can also be programmed to account for changes in sunlight and weather conditions. For instance, during a brainstorming session, the room might be bathed in bright light, while a sales presentation might require a more subdued setting.
Manufacturers are collaborating to create solutions that integrate meeting software and room environment control into a single screen. This integration will streamline the meeting experience, making it more seamless and efficient.
The development of these solutions is supported by 15 thought leaders in Streaming Technologies, Visualization Technologies, and Next-Gen Audio. These leaders are driving innovation in their respective fields, contributing to the overall enhancement of hybrid workspaces.
In addition, 15 manufacturers are expected to support the development of hybrid workplaces in 2024. Companies like Microsoft, Zoom Video Communications, Cisco, Google, and startups such as Spatial and Miro, along with technologies from firms like Crestron and Logitech, are all part of this movement.

It's worth noting that a hybrid workspace may consist of different brands for the control system, conferencing platform, and hardware such as displays. However, when all elements work together, it provides the best possible automated meeting experience for all manufacturers involved.
In certain areas of a room, specific cameras may focus on individuals or whiteboards during hybrid meetings, ensuring that everyone is visible and that important information is captured.
The customisation options for different types of meetings are extensive. Settings can be tailored to suit the specific needs of each meeting, whether it's a sales presentation or a brainstorming session.
As we move towards 2024, the future of hybrid workspaces looks promising, with a focus on automation, integration, and customisation. Stay tuned for more updates and innovations in this exciting field.
