The Concierge Room

the problem

Hybrid conference rooms running Zoom on Logitech Tap, but everything beyond the table — lights, shades, the new Opaque smart-glass walls — was its own island. Switching modes meant five remotes and an apologetic guest. When IT or AV support was needed in-room, it took a phone call and a guess at extensions.

what we built

We wrote a Q-SYS bridge layer that translates between the Logitech Tap interface, the Lutron Athena scene controllers, and the Opaque smart-glass drivers — so a single tap on the Tap surface dims, draws shades, frosts the glass, and starts the call together. Then we added a "Concierge" button: pressed in the room, it posts a structured message into a watch channel in Slack where IT, AV, and facilities all see it instantly, with the room ID, the call status, and the kind of help requested.

outcome

Five vendor systems behaving like one. Concierge requests routed in seconds instead of minutes. The room runs itself.
