MASTER CONTROL
WE EMPOWER HUMANS WITH MACHINE CONTROL
CTRLbot is an engineering and software company that makes Pro AV easy to use and simple to control. The app discovers the devices, creates the connections and auto-builds a simple user interface. CTRLbot unifies the room into one reliable system for presentations, conferencing and broadcast events.
ONE PLATFORM OF STANDALONE CONTROL AND DIAGNOSTIC TOOLS
Professional AV control with CTRLbot IoT, diagnosis with CTRLbot.AI, desktop commissioning with CTRLbot Mirror, and testing and QA with CTRLbot Terminator. No expensive external processor and no proprietary programming. Hundreds of devices and thousands of commands, with cheat sheets and documentation for every component, connection and API.
IT SIMPLY WORKS. AND IT'S SIMPLE TO USE. CTRLbot
CONNECT WITH US →FREE ENERGY FROM ONE BUTTON PRESS
One small push of a button is all it takes to unlock the potential energy of the system and the capabilities of the connected devices. The person walking into the room gets the ball rolling. The momentum carries every command through, all the way to full control of the room.
TECHNOLOGY THAT ENABLES USERS AND EMPOWERS PEOPLE
We build software that translates human intent into system action, a simple extension from mind to machine. You decide what should happen and the system does it. The systems may be complicated, but setting them up and using them should not be. It's simple to use, it simply works, and anyone can walk into the room and run it.
THE UNIVERSAL TRANSLATOR FOR CHAOS CONTROL
There's a reason most conference rooms don't work. Every device comes from a different manufacturer, speaks a different language and uses its own connections and protocols, and none of them want to work together outside their own ecosystem. CTRLbot speaks all of their languages. It knows how to discover them, connect to them and control them, and it fits them into one system.
CTRLbot IoT
CTRLbot IoT is a complete professional AV control system that runs on an Android phone or tablet. Add the devices in the room, make the connections and it builds a simple interface for power, switching and volume. The driver catalog is built in, with hundreds of devices and thousands of commands over IP, and RS-232 and IR through a control endpoint. There is no control processor and no proprietary programming, and control goes straight from the device to the equipment.
A DEVICE DATABASE OF THE MAJOR PRO AV MANUFACTURERS
Projectors, displays, switchers and end points from the major Pro AV manufacturers, with links out to every home and product page. Every entry starts from the manufacturer's own documentation, and each driver is reviewed by a person before it ships in the app. Hundreds of devices and thousands of commands, growing with every release.
EACH DRIVER IS THE CHEAT SHEET FOR ITS MANUAL
Every driver carries its description, setup instructions and the exact connection details for each model, across IP, RS-232 and IR. The API lists every command the device takes, with the payload, encoding and line endings already set. You stop hunting through PDFs and start from the right settings.
CONNECT TO THE REAL DEVICE AND WATCH THE COMMAND LAND
Add the device, type its address and connect, with the protocol, port and line ending taken from the driver. Send a command from the same screen and the log shows exactly what went out and what came back. You can prove the driver works before the room goes live.
THAT WAS ONE DRIVER AND HUNDREDS MORE WORK THE SAME
Every driver in the list opens the same way. Pick any device and the same screens are waiting.
