From Point Solutions to Unified Enterprise AV Platforms
InfoComm 2026 platforms highlight a major shift in enterprise AV management, where fragmented point solutions are giving way to unified, AI‑aware environments that combine content, devices, data, and workflows across many sites and use cases. Instead of treating digital signage, room systems, IPTV, and large displays as separate projects, vendors are presenting them as parts of a single, composable platform spanning the whole estate. That change is visible across exhibitors: content publishing, automated monitoring, AI-powered signage, and unified device orchestration are now expected core functions, not extras. At the same time, integrations with workplace technology and business systems are turning AV networks into extensions of IT infrastructure. For AV and IT teams, this convergence promises fewer consoles to manage, more automation, and clearer paths to scale communications and immersive experiences in hospitality, healthcare, sports, and enterprise offices.
Korbyt: AI Agents Turn Signage into Operational Intelligence
Korbyt is using InfoComm to show how AI agents are reshaping workplace technology convergence. Its Korbyt Anywhere platform extends beyond digital signage into broader operational intelligence for enterprise communications. The new ScreenDetective module brings continuous monitoring and automated recovery to screen networks, detecting black screens or frozen content at configurable intervals and triggering corrective actions without manual intervention. That turns uptime into a managed, automated process rather than a reactive troubleshooting task. Launchpad 2.0 focuses on content creation, delivering a redesigned authoring experience so non‑technical users can publish while administrators enforce brand themes from a central system. Together, these capabilities show AI and automation becoming standard features inside enterprise AV management, reducing the need for specialized training and making large, distributed deployments more manageable for resource‑stretched AV and IT teams.
Navori: Composable, AI-Connected Signage and Unified Orchestration
Navori Labs is previewing an AI-connected, composable digital signage platform that aims to move beyond a traditional CMS into full network orchestration. The system groups content management, data integration, AI-linked workflows, device management, analytics, and monetization in a single environment. At its core is Navori MCP (Model Context Protocol), a standardized connection layer for external AI services, business apps, and operational systems. According to Navori, MCP will let organizations automate tasks and interact with screen networks using natural language, signaling a new interaction model for AI-powered signage. The platform also adds native support for e-paper through Agile Display Solutions and E Ink, so operators can handle ePaper, LEDs, and media players from the same dashboard instead of multiple platforms. A new ad server within the Monetize module targets retail media and DooH, reinforcing the shift from isolated signage to unified device orchestration and revenue-focused operations.
Uniguest: Vertical Hubs and Cross-Platform Workflows at Scale
Uniguest is focusing on verticalized platforms that merge signage and communications into tailored digital engagement hubs. Its Hotel Hub, Healthcare Hub, Sports Hub, Casino Hub, Enterprise Hub, and Campus Hub combine digital signage, IPTV, enterprise video, and communication tools with workflows tuned to each market. The company reports that its platform now supports more than 1.1 million deployed endpoints worldwide, underlining the scale of unified enterprise AV management. Integrations span hospitality and healthcare systems, POS, sports data feeds, workplace technologies, content providers, and business apps, helping organizations connect systems that were once isolated. As EVP marketing James Keen notes, “Organizations don’t want disconnected tools and siloed platforms.” Instead, they want solutions that fit existing stacks and can be supported over the long term, reinforcing a move toward cross‑platform workflows that AV, IT, and operations can share.
Scalable Display Technologies: Automated Immersive Environments Join the Platform Story
Scalable Display Technologies brings immersive projection into the platform conversation with its Atlas software, which automates calibration for complex multi‑projector environments. At InfoComm, the company is presenting a large 3D Mount Rushmore installation where Atlas performs automatic geometric correction, edge blending, color matching, and alignment across complex surfaces. During the event, the team intentionally disrupts projector alignment and re-runs calibration to show fast recovery with minimal technical intervention. Atlas calculates projector positions in 3D using cameras, then generates warping for each projector, sharply cutting commissioning time and manual adjustment. While focused on simulation, themed attractions, and architectural projection, Atlas reflects the same industry trend: use software automation and unified workflows to maintain consistency at scale. As these environments tie into broader signage and workspace platforms, they become another managed endpoint inside converged workplace technology ecosystems rather than standalone art pieces.
