A courtroom asks a single AV system to do things that generic designs handle badly: the same evidence frame on the judge, counsel, jury and gallery displays; remote testimony that has to look and sound like the witness is in the room; recording that simply may not fail; and controls a clerk can operate without an AV engineer in the room.
One evidence source is multicast to the bench, counsel tables, jury box and gallery displays so every viewer sees the same frame. Layouts and picture-in-picture are set once by the operator and stay consistent for the whole session.
Remote witness, interpreter and counsel feeds are brought in over the same system, with USB and KVM extension for cameras, microphones and document cameras at the lectern instead of a second rig.
In-platform recording and streaming capture proceedings to the archive without a dedicated recorder appliance to manage, update or replace.
One-touch scene presets — Evidence, Remote Testimony, Recess — on a touch panel or web console, so a clerk runs the room without calling for technical support.
AV traffic sits on its own VLAN with access control between rooms, and activity logs give the court a record of who displayed what.
Matrix routing, video wall, DSP, recording, streaming and control run on one platform instead of a matrix, a wall processor, a recorder and a control processor from four vendors.
| Capability | Typical Courtroom AV Stack | ADHOOPU Platform |
|---|---|---|
| Evidence display | Evidence PC and document camera through a separate matrix and distribution amplifiers | One source multicast in sync to bench, counsel, jury and gallery |
| Remote testimony | Room VC system handled separately from AV routing | Remote feeds and USB/KVM on the same link |
| Recording | Dedicated recording appliance per courtroom | Recording and streaming built into the platform |
| Operation | Custom control program, AV engineer on standby | One-touch scene presets the clerk can run |
| Security | Separate network or standalone hardware | Dedicated VLAN, access control and activity logs |
| Reliability | Matrix + recorder + controller = multiple points of failure | Single platform, fewer failure points to service |
Comparison reflects the architecture class, not a single SKU. Confirm exact channel counts and feature requirements for your project.
Yes. The platform can feed the existing recorder as a downstream consumer, or replace it with built-in recording and streaming. Most courts run both side by side while a courtroom is phased over.
Remote witness, interpreter and counsel video is brought into the same system and routed like any other source. Cameras, microphones and document cameras at the lectern use USB/KVM extension over the same link, so a separate conference rig is not required.
No dedicated switching hardware is required. The system runs over standard managed 1GbE switches with IGMP on a dedicated VLAN, which is the same configuration your IT team already uses for multicast.
The platform builds picture-in-picture and multi-window layouts for document, video and live camera sources, and sends them to the displays that should see them — set once, held for the session.
Yes. For integrators, distributors and AV brands, hardware, firmware packaging and platform branding can be supplied under the partner's own brand after technical review.
ADHOOPU is a courtroom AV over IP platform for integrators who need synchronised evidence, remote testimony and dependable recording without stacking a matrix, a recorder, a wall processor and a control system into one rack. Ask for a court-room configuration and trial units at factory pricing.
