Large-screen interactive displays can help turn routine presentations and videoconferences into productive brainstorming sessions. Hitachi's StarBoard P-55X Interactive Plasma Display ($13,995) is a 55-inch diagonal, HD touch-screen display with StarBoard software that enables easy annotation of video and graphics, screen/voice recording, and collaborative interaction with dozens of local users and remote locations.

The audiovisual industry generates over $19 billion in revenues annually in North America and is thought to be more than a $50 billion industry worldwide. The industry is projected to grow by 9.6 percent annually. Fueling this growth is the insatiable demand for networked AV products. Currently, more than 80 percent of all AV systems use the client's local area network. Wireless connections are the norm in integrated AV systems. Now, and in the future, businesses of all sizes will be incorporating streaming media, webcasting, digital signal processing, wireless applications, and AV-related software that integrate the worlds of AV and IT.
