OCA Alliance previews AES70 upgrade at ISE
- Details
AES70 is the emerging standard for control between audio equipment, offering manufacturers an easy way to implement control, both between their own devices and those of other manufacturers in an open, standardized way. The AES70-2022 release will be upwards-compatible from the current AES70-2018 and offers several significant enhancements for new and improved features along with several documentation upgrades for increased clarity, readability and precision.
In total, the new 2022 release numbers around 40 new or enhanced features and 15 documentation upgrades, making it ‘easier to implement and manage, and even more powerful’.
According to Bosch Communications senior scientist and OCA Alliance technical committee chair, Jeff Berryman, AES70-2022 will provide some welcome useability improvements, making the route to adoption easier than ever. “As with any standard, the more widely it is adopted and used, the greater the benefit to all concerned and the industry at large.
“The 2022 revision offers several enhancements and upgrades to make it more accessible, easier to implement while also improving performance. Combined with our recent lightweight implementation, we now have AES70 control solutions for every part of the spectrum, from the simplest to the most complex systems.”
Daily presentations on the OCA Alliance booth #7-R870 at ISE 2022 will explain the new features and benefits in more detail, whilst other presentations aimed at product managers and engineers will offer insights into how to implement AES70 into their products.
