UPX & Digital Video Processors overview

Today’s presentation technologies offer much to dazzle an audience, but the point may get lost if the presenter does not have command of that technology. Crestron presentation solutions converge multiple technologies to form a single harmonious system that’s intuitive to use and facilitates crystal clear communication.

Crestron’s award-winning UPX Universal Presentation System is a complete presentation solution integrating touchpanel control with advanced pen-based annotation, multi-window digital video processing, and an embedded multimedia PC. UPX brilliantly assembles a host of popular presentation features to simplify and enhance the presentation of a variety of video, computer, and digital media sources. Crestron MediaMarker™ professional annotation software lets the presenter annotate over any still image or motion video source, and then save, edit, and share the screen shots and annotation files in a variety of formats. Exclusive DualTouch™ Technology combines fingertip operated touchpanel control with a wireless pen-driven drawing tablet for the ultimate presenter’s user interface.

The DVPHD-PRO Digital Video Processor delivers high-definition multi-window processing for everything from command centers and large lecture halls to advanced home theaters and houses of worship. Connect the DVPHD-PRO to a digital projector, LCD, or plasma display to present a slew of video and computer sources in up to eight fully-scalable windows combined with stunning custom graphics and dynamic text. Add a touchscreen and harness the DVPHD’s touchpanel interface capabilities for impacting interactive presentation and kiosk applications.

These touchpanel interfaces are perfect for custom touchscreen control and interactive kiosk applications, and can also serve as high- resolution graphics generators complete with dynamic
