Assembly hall — Vichy
Rebuilding of the conference ecosystem and of the audiovisual equipment.
Built in 2005, the assembly room of Vichy Communauté (210 m², delivery 2026) has a complete set of equipment for its uses, but some ageing items can no longer be serviced in the event of a breakdown. As part of an effort to make the best of existing resources and to update the technology, Scenarchie’s assignment — as project manager and scenographer — consisted in rebuilding the conference ecosystem by integrating the new devices with the high-performing equipment already in place: 2021 video projection and 2024 video infrastructure.
The discussion chain was entirely replaced by conference units custom-recessed into the existing furniture, for better ergonomics. Capture relies on 4 PTZ cameras with automatic speaker tracking, slaved to the microphones, and a native Microsoft Teams videoconferencing solution ensures smooth management of mixed sessions, in person and remote.
Finally, a control processor centralises audio and video, with simplified usage scenarios that automate every task: starting a session, switching to video mode, managing the signal flows.
