To aid its research efforts, the Institute’s new buildings incorporate a number of observation and conference rooms - 20 in total. These rooms are used for a variety of purposes, including evaluating new students, the effectiveness of new procedures or new treatments and for family or patient conferences. Each room has a self-contained sound system, designed in such a way that it allows for future input and output expansion, and independent operation. Each room (or combination of rooms) can be controlled by a Central Media room, and to facilitate the mixing and routing of over 100 audio inputs, 20 of Biamp’s Audia CobraNet units are being installed in the new facility.
