CHANTILLY, Va., May 18, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Corbett Technology Solutions, Inc. (CTSI) is pleased to announce the addition of Joe Oliveri, where he will assume the role of President and CEO. Gino Ruta, formerly CEO, will transition to Chairman, where he will shift his focus to acquisitions and accelerate growth that began during his productive tenure.

Oliveri joins CTSI from Johnson Controls, where he served as Vice President and General Manager of Global Ducted Systems. Prior to that role, he ran other divisions including the company’s Global Fire Detection and Security BU’s.

“I’m excited to join this organization and continue accelerating CTSI’s growth across the United States,” Oliveri said. “With my history of strategic acquisitions and aggressive growth, my priority at CTSI is to engineer further expansion of our security and life safety solution portfolios, while expanding our reach in audiovisual, collaboration, healthcare and education technology solutions and services. CTSI is unique in that alongside unmatched expertise, we offer innovative and robust subscription and managed services – you’re getting the entire package from one partner committed to excellence, and that’s a culture I’m proud to lead.”

“Joe is the perfect choice to continue the work we’ve done in aggressively growing CTSI’s footprint in a number of industries across the U.S.,” said Gino Ruta, Chairman. “He brings incredible experience to the table, specifically in overseeing integration and expansion of the meaningful acquisitions CTSI is poised to continue as we expand our industry-leading integration and subscription services business.

Vindral shares an Emmy honour for frame-accurate browser monitoring

Vindral shares an Emmy honour in a category described as web-based, frame-accurate, remote and distributed. Vindral shares the category with NBCUniversal, Disney, Amazon, CBS Sports, Grass Valley, Game Creek and SipRadius. The award recognises tools that keep production teams in separate locations frame-accurate in a browser, without specialised hardware.

  • 01The Emmy-recognised technical bar is that everyone on a distributed production sees the exact same frame at the exact same moment in an ordinary browser, with no specialised hardware.
  • 02Eight organizations share the award, and the release says the work being honored dates to the pandemic. The announcement doesn’t rank the honourees or include latency figures a buyer could benchmark.

Certified Teams Rooms kit from Nureva and AudioCodes needs no ceiling mics

Certified Teams Rooms kit from Nureva and AudioCodes needs no ceiling mics

Nureva and AudioCodes earned Microsoft Teams Rooms certification for an Android setup for medium rooms: Nureva’s HDL310 plus three AudioCodes devices. The design avoids tabletop or ceiling mics and skips complex DSP and custom programming. It helps IT teams standardize repeatable rooms, while certification tests device performance (not feature claims).

  • 01A medium Teams Room on Android can be built from four jointly certified devices (Nureva HDL310, AudioCodes RXVCam70, RXV200-ES and RX-PAD-ES) without tabletop or ceiling microphones.

Cornea's Class AI puts 100+ teaching tools on its interactive panel

Cornea's Class AI puts 100+ teaching tools on its interactive panel

Cornea's Class AI software adds more than 100 teaching tools. Cornea, an OEM on the GeM portal, presents its products under the theme "One Brand for Every Display Need," which could appeal to schools and government buyers who want one supplier.

  • 01Cornea positions itself as a single source for hardware, software and AI-enabled AV infrastructure, with consolidation pitched as valuable for institutions fitting out rooms in batches.
  • 02For buyers already standardized on a conferencing or audio brand, how well a new panel fits the installed gear matters more than a single-brand classroom stack.
  • 03Signal to watch: whether the AIO PC, the Orator lectern and the new panel appear as orderable GeM listings, and at what price.
