Samples of our AMX work

	This was a conversion project. The original Axcess master was converted to a Netlinx master and the older G3 touch panels were converted to Modero panels. The first picture shows the original system's main navigation screen while the second picture shows the same screen after the conversion.
	For these panels, we wanted to create a more modern appearance to match other upgraded systems that had better graphics. We were still limited to the capabilities of older AMX G3 touch panels though. These PhotoShop generated graphics were the final result. These screens control video patching and special effects smokers. The smoker control was designed to automatically adapt to out weather conditions like wind speed and humidity. They also had several built in alternate scene scenarios to simplify operations when things went wrong during the show.
	This project is part of the control system for a live show. Mike created the touch screen layouts using graphic elements created by another member of the team and Erik did most of the coding that made it work. Left to right, here is what these screens do: 1. This is the audio interface. It allows segmented pieces of music to be played back as a continuous soundtrack. We added timers that allow the overlapping pieces to be played back at different lengths without skipping beats. This was needed to match the ever-changing length of each unique live performance. 2. This is the CCTV screen. The display shows up to 4 backstage cameras at a time. The operator simply touches any one of the 4 images to "zoom in" to a full screen view of that camera. 3. This screen displays the status of the pyro system (which is triggered by another device). This feedback is there primarily for testing. 4. Although the audio operator generally uses main audio screen for playback control, this screen allows them to individually control or monitor each of the 12 playback units in the Alcorn-McBride Binloop. 5. This is the lighting screen. It gives the operator the ability to control individual DMX channels, change light levels by group faders, record and playback cues for the show, or set cues to play back according to the time of day. All of the audio cue, lighting patch and cues, and time of day events are stored automatically in external text files that are easy for the operators to back up in the event of a minor memory disaster.
	These are demonstration screenshots for a project in progress renovation of an historic home in the Alta District of Las Vegas. This home automation system includes 8 touch panels, 2 thermostats with various external temperature and humidity sensors, 10 TVs, 3 DVRs, a home theater, multi-channel audio through the entire house, and future control of the pool, spa, and backyard fire pit. The design of the touch panels is based on elements from the home's architectural features.
Other AMX Projects	We have done other AMX projects not shown here. We either don't have screenshots from those projects or they didn't use touch panels. For more information on our other projects, CLICK HERE.
