Diversified designed, integrated and commissioned the full AV technology ecosystem for ECU’s new City Campus – the largest single AV integration project ever delivered in the southern hemisphere.

The scope covered two distinct but structurally connected worlds. First, seven purpose-built performance theatres serving WAAPA, plus 18 movement and voice rooms, two recording studios, a 5.1 mixing room and a spatial audio room — all with full audio reinforcement, video, lighting control, communications and stage management systems. Second, a complete broadcast and post-production facility: a native 4K broadcast studio and control room, newsroom, two visual radio studios, eight media production suites, two podcast studios, post-production edit suites, a Dolby Atmos Viewing Suite and a 36-channel Dolby Atmos certified theatrical release cinema.

Diversified held responsibility for the complete project lifecycle: system design, engineering, procurement, factory acceptance testing, installation, commissioning, documentation and user training. WAAPA and ECU students now learn on the actual tools used in professional practice — not scaled-down approximations.

NZICC opened in February 2026 and has a footprint exceeding 30,000m². New Zealand’s only official International Convention Centre includes a 2,852-seat plenary theatre, 6,637m² divisible Exhibition Hall and many function and meeting rooms. Vega Group was contracted for custom design, value engineering, structural deployment, end-to-end programming, testing, and system commissioning for all major venue zones.

The venue is equipped with New Zealand’s largest single Crestron NVX AV-over-IP network with over 320 video endpoints running on multimode fibre to route any source anywhere in the facility. Audio operations run on a lossless digital network and feed the southern hemisphere’s largest JBL Professional speaker installation.

Spaces can flex seamlessly from large-scale exhibitions or 4,500-guest theatre layouts to 33 simultaneous meeting rooms. Operable architectural walls allow spaces like the Plenary Theatre to split into independent dual configurations, each complete with dedicated touch panels and mixing desks, enabling distinct events with zero acoustic interference.

Operational efficiency is maximised through an automated “self-discovery” smart infrastructure built into 16 mobile lecterns and breakout racks. When patched into a floor box, the rack automatically maps its location, routes signals, and instantly updates local touch-panel connection workflows.

Pro AV Solutions delivered the $6.5M building-wide AV deployment for the UNSW Health Translation Hub across nine floors. The scope included more than 130 meeting, teaching, collaboration and simulation spaces, plus 950+ workstations with video collaboration capability.

The work included room-based AV, AV-over-IP infrastructure, Microsoft Teams Rooms, workstation technology, large visual display systems, audio systems, control systems, commissioning, handover documentation and operations and maintenance material.

The project used a hybrid AV architecture across collaboration, teaching, simulation, visualisation and workstation environments. Pro AV Solutions also deployed One Control as the user-facing control layer across mixed AV environments. Rather than creating separate vendor-specific interfaces for AMX, Crestron and specialist spaces, One Control gave users a consistent room experience while allowing the underlying systems to remain fit for purpose.

Pro AV Solutions delivered the audiovisual scope for the Transport for NSW Transport Management Centre and Operations Room upgrade. The works centred on replacing end-of-life display infrastructure with a new curved rear-projection video wall designed for continuous transport operations. In designing compliant, standards-based control room systems, detailed coordination was required with Transport for NSW, the architects, construction trades and equipment suppliers.

The upgraded Operations Room gives Transport for NSW runs 24/7 and coordinates response across roads and the wider transport network, including incidents, traffic signals, cameras, variable message signs, response crews, tow trucks, replacement services and major event transport. Operators and supervisors can view live CCTV and operational monitoring feeds across a 23-metre curved display surface, supporting faster incident awareness, shared situational visibility and coordination across the network. The supporting audio system supports briefings and announcements without adding unnecessary control complexity. Seven BGM zones and nine sound masking zones help improve open-plan operations environment.

UTS designed a single “standard” architecture for the university’s lecterns. The in-house AV team handled the full system design – selecting the hardware, mapping the connectivity and documenting the deployment workflow. Their integrators (Equans) efficiently built 13 identical units without final locations in mind to retain maximum flexibility for our deployments.

Crestron control and video operates on Netgear AV Line switches to keep the multicast traffic isolated and stable. The trick here wasn’t the specific gear, but the way we configured the network and control logic to make the units swap-ready and easy to drop into any space on campus.

The main win was reducing the massive installation times, reducing a 4-6 week deployment cycle down to about 2 weeks. Now the design is identical across the fleet and lecterns are pre-built and pre-configured site work is reduced to basically just transporting the unit to it’s new home and connecting power and the corporate network for remote management. This has made the whole fleet significantly easier to support and more predictable for the university, whilst delivers a 12% cost saving and cutting deployment time by over 75%.

Momento Hospitality initiated a complete transformation of the 2,000m² storage warehouse attached to their established Bella Vista Hotel into Australia’s largest live non-government performance venue. Their brief to Vestec Electro was that it be a world-class venue fully equipped with sound, lighting, and video gear to meet any rider’s needs.

In addition to outdated, underperforming equipment the acoustics were described as horrendous, dreadful and abysmal so Vestec’s scope of works included not only state-of-the-art hardware solutions, but bringing together industry experts to guide the client. Specialist electroacoustic analysis and modelling was employed to develop the acoustic treatment for the space before the main Martin and supporting sound systems and control were designed.

Bella Live has attracted some of the world’s biggest acts and brings major entertainment to an underserved area of Sydney. It is now a capable of hosting everything from top-tier acts to corporate events.

The Beach Volleyball World Championships 2025 marked the first time this premier global tournament was held in Australia. Three Beach Volleyball courts were built in parklands overlooking the Adelaide skyline and in the Centre Court of The Drive tennis complex. Novatech was official production supplier and provided audio, lighting and vision systems across the site. Each court had a custom temporary AV install including an audio system, LED screens for scoring, timing and broadcast playback along with all audio and vision switching equipment.

A highlight was development of a large LED backdrop on the stage overlooking Centre Court. This screen appears to be solid until content is turned off and lighting behind the screen is used. The centre 5x5m section was set back within the same size opening and purpose-designed lighting placed behind. The entire screen was a solid LED canvas for imagery, scoreboards, broadcast and performance backdrops but also provided a stunning Player Entry moment. The custom player entry caught the attention of the global sporting body, FIVB, along with athletes, media and Volleyball professionals from across the globe. Providing a unique, and never before seen player entry, gained the client immense praise for innovating on a global platform.
