Marin Health and Wellness Center

WBE Audio Visual recently installed multiple systems into the new Marin Health and Wellness Center in San Rafael. The Center was designed as a place where individuals and families can receive a variety of health and wellness services that take into account a wide range of languages and cultures. Our audio visual crew team installed re-designed and integrated the large divisible classroom, consisting of dual motorized 6500 Lumen projectors, a Bi Amp multi-channel audio DSP, and two AMX touchscreens. In all, WBE installed a total of 6 projection systems, an audio conferencing system, a digital signage system, and a Bogen paging system throughout this high-tech three building campus.   (General Contractor - Dome Construction)


   
Bently Reserve Conference Center

 

WBE Audio Visual recently worked in San Francisco at the Bently Reserve Conferencing Center. Bently aims to be the premier venue for corporate meetings in the Bay Area offering a combination of privacy, class, flexibility and all of the desirable features the target clientele may require for hosting professional conferences. There were many unique challenges because the systems had to be retrofit into the historic building while preserving the original wood paneling and crown molding in the ceiling. WBE worked closely with the architect and builder to design, engineer, and coordinate the installation of the audio/visual, automation, and lighting control systems.
In all, integrated systems were installed in five rooms, including three Polycom high-definition videoconferencing systems utilizing various types of digital and analog microphones and DSP audio processors. Each room is controlled via a wireless AMX touchpanel, which automates the audio, screens and projector lifts, lighting scenes, and motorized window treatments. WBE also provided a fourth high-definition videoconferencing system and a 42” flat panel display on a rolling cart.

City of Belvedere

Our crew recently worked at the City of Belvedere's City Hall building, which was formerly a church. This was another historical retrofit project, where our systems were designed in such a way so as to preserve the building’s historic architecture and extensive interior wood finishes. Each aspect of the system had to be approved by the historical preservation committee. The system includes multiple wired and wireless microphones for audio reinforcement, a motorized projection screen with the projector concealed in custom-designed millwork, a high-definition Lumens camera so documents can be photographed and then shot onto the projection screen for everyone to see, a Clear One DSP audio processor and digital recorder to record council meetings. In addition to the large projection system, five small LCD monitors and four active speakers are installed at the council table to provide monitoring for the City Council members. The entire system is intuitively controlled with a wired AMX touchscreen.
