Latin America. For Lucas Crantschaninov, Sales Director Of Unilumin, 2022 has behaved like a year of resumption after the consequences left by the pandemic in 2020 and 2021.
"While 2021 behaved like a year of recovery for the AV industry, the first quarter of 2022 indicates that the pandemic is behind us and the market has reacted very positively, with indicators similar to those that precede the pandemic. The commercial, corporate and rental market verticals have responded best in this first quarter of the year. The latter has been the pleasant surprise, so it had been stagnant since the beginning of the COVID outbreak," he said.
Lucas Crantschaninov highlighted that there are several outstanding projects in the region in which Unilumin screens have been used in recent months. Among them: for Christmas 2021, one of its integrators delivered the screen that dresses the elevator of the Gran Estación Shopping Center in Bogotá of 60m² with 3 faces. In January, Chile's Canal13 premiered on its stage 55m² of one of its professional 1.8mm pitch solutions and between February and March 2022, 100m² of its flagship outdoor solution, the 10,000nit UsurfaceIII, were installed on the roads of Santo Domingo.
He added that "We continue to believe, bet, and support our partners. We expect a second half of consolidation of the AV market, especially in the professional and rental & staging vertical, reflecting the upgrade of visual technologies to direct vision LEDs. We have expanded our portfolio of products and solutions to meet the needs of the market, with cutting-edge technology for different budgets and needs. We have the support of our allies and they know they are counting on us."
Finally, about InfoComm 2022 he assured that they expect a high flow of professionals from the AV market, where, in terms of products, among several novelties they will present the second generation of their cutting-edge solution for control rooms, the UpanelS II that, apart from its traditional functions, such as the extraction of modules without tools, brings new on-board technologies such as overcurrent detection, overtemperature and humidity, added to the MegaPixel processing, which allows the display of content with 10-bit of colors, 4.4.4 proof, without compression. They will also present Unilumin's new business concept to their clients, allies and friends, in sessions at the booth.
