Located on the Croisette, the Hotel Martinez , part of the Hyatt hotel group , is probably the most emblematic establishment in Cannes.

Built in 1929, it has benefited from major renovations and embellishments in recent years.

​

Among these works, the hotel, which regularly welcomes companies for conferences, seminars, etc., has equipped itself with several meeting rooms, including a large room equipped with the best technologies.

​

ITE Ingénierie intervened to design and integrate all of the Crestron home automation system and other equipment in these different rooms.

​

Identify an available meeting room

For example, ITE Ingénierie was able to deploy the CRESTRON room reservation solution ( Crestron Room Reservation [Crestron Electronics, Inc.] ) for all the rooms.

These are touch-sensitive desks attached to the entrance to each of the meeting rooms, which allows real-time information on the occupancy schedule for each of the rooms . They also have led bars on each side which light up in green when the room is free, or in red if a meeting is in progress in this room.

Thus, this solution now allows employees of the Martinez hotel to be able to identify an available room at a glance , by moving around the corridors.

This solution is fully integrated into the hotel room reservation solution and did not require any special application installation.

A hyperconnected multi-use room

ITE Ingénierie has also fully imagined and implemented the large meeting room of the Hotel Martinez, incorporating a wealth of technology.

Thus, thanks to the range of possibilities offered by CRESTRON , we were able to offer complete home automation control of the room (lighting, sound system, videoconferencing, presentation, etc.) from a single touch panel located on the meeting table.

The organizer of a meeting can thus act on all the following equipment:

• Lighting management with lighting scenarios (coffee corner, videoconference mode, meeting mode, etc.)

• Choice of presentation mode: internal meeting with local projection, or Teams videoconference,

• Management of audio settings and Audio Technica speaker,

• Camera management,

• Operating a Samsung Flipboard interactive whiteboard

The lighting scenarios are also accessible from a keypad located at the entrance to the room.

Regarding videoconferencing, we have deployed the CRESTRON Flex solution for Microsoft Teams . This solution provides all the Microsoft Teams Room (MTR) features .

See article on our blog: Crestron democratizes unified communication with Microsoft Teams .

Thus, it is now possible for meeting room users to directly launch a Teams video conference from the touch panel. Thanks to the MTR CRESTRON, the room can be invited in a Teams conference, but also participate in Zoom or Cisco Webex videoconferences .

We have also translated the control interfaces for the international customers of the Martinez Hotel into four languages.
