Rockleigh, NJ – January 27, 2026 – Crestron Electronics, a global leader in delivering scalable, intuitive video experiences and workplace collaboration technology, today announced AutoMeasure, an AI-powered configuration feature designed to simplify and accelerate the deployment of Automate VX multi-camera systems. Integrated directly into the Intelligent Video Room Designer tool, AutoMeasure uses advanced computer vision and spatial intelligence to automatically detect and calculate placement of cameras and microphones, ensuring every system is aligned and optimized for a high-quality collaboration experience.
As hybrid work continues to shape modern collaboration, organizations are demanding solutions that deliver consistency, accuracy, and ease of deployment. AutoMeasure brings automation and AI into AV configuration, reducing the manual measurement step of deploying Automate VX to 15 minutes. With precise calculations of device placement, integrators can deliver installations that are accurate, consistent, and reliable. This creates a better collaboration environment, resulting in a more seamless and refined experience for both in-room and remote participants.
“AutoMeasure represents a new chapter in intelligent video deployment,” said Joel Mulpeter, senior director of product marketing at Crestron. “By combining computer vision AI, and automation, we are giving integrators a smarter, faster, and more accurate way to install Automate VX systems. The result is impressive outcomes for everyone in the meeting.”
Artificial Intelligence for Deployments, Benefits for End Users and Channel Partners
AutoMeasure is more than a technical upgrade; it is a breakthrough that transforms how Automate VX systems are deployed and maintained. By taking the guesswork and manual labor out of room configuration, AutoMeasure empowers organizations to achieve flawless results on day one while giving integrators the speed and confidence they need to scale projects without compromise. The outcome is a win for everyone: end users gain reliable, high-quality collaboration experiences, and channel partners unlock new levels of efficiency, accuracy, and profitability.
