Abstract:
This panel discussion with key members of the AVnu Alliance will explore the role of the IEEE 802.1 Audio/Video Bridging [AVB] Standards in the professional audio industry, as well as consumer electronics and automotive applications. An in-depth explanation of AVB and related IEEE standards will be presented, followed by a discussion of the advantages of an open non-proprietary technology, the role of silicon makers to ensure a cost-effective solution, and the critical role a compliance program will play to ensure interoperability of AVB devices. Panelists will discuss the direct implications of AVB for system designers and talk about how best to prepare for the new standard. Ample time for questions from the audience will be allowed.
