OCA Alliance
to Demonstrate Standards-Based Open Control Architecture at InfoComm June
18-20 in Las Vegas
Fast-Growing Audio Association Set for Initial Demo at Booth C11547,
with Member Company Products, Technical Support
San Francisco, May 5, 2014 -- The OCA Alliance, a global
consortium of companies developing the Open Control Architecture (OCA)
as a media networking system, will demonstrate its flexible and robust
standards-based open control of devices for the first time at this year’s
InfoComm, set for June 18-20 at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
In booth C11547, the Alliance will exhibit some of the first products
implementing OCA from its member companies with technical experts on hand
to explain and present the technology.
“There has been significant work on the OCA control protocol to date,
the InfoComm show is a great opportunity to present the results of that
effort to the industry and to the public,” said OCA Marketing Workgroup
Chairman, Marc Weber of d&b audiotechnik. “For the first time in the
history of the OCA Alliance, we will have a public booth at the InfoComm
exhibition. The public InfoComm booth marks the next stage of the protocol,
which is now becoming more tangible for the user with the first products
from these manufacturers entering the market. We wanted to wait with a
public booth until real products are available.”
About OCA
OCA defines a flexible and robust control standard that complements any
media-transport standard. By adding standard system control to the media-network
equation, OCA will allow devices from multiple manufacturers to share
common controllers. This will allow seamless user experiences of multivendor
systems.
