City of costa mesa project profile

Costa Mesa is a city located in Orange County, California, United States. It’s situated near the coast, just south of Huntington Beach and Newport Beach. Costa Mesa is known for its vibrant arts scene, shopping centers like South Coast Plaza, and cultural attractions such as the Segerstrom Center for the Arts. The city also has a diverse range of dining options and outdoor recreational areas, making it a popular destination for residents and visitors alike.

Project Description

Acquisition and deployment of a comprehensive audio-visual solution, encompassing the procurement and setup of various essential components. This entails the purchase and installation of projectors, screens, cameras, surface-mounted loudspeakers, ceiling-suspended loudspeakers, racks for wall or floor mounting, displays, microphones, antennas, sensors, as well as camera and speaker housing units.

The Challenge

The project involves the integration of an advanced audio-visual system into an existing setup, taking into account the outdated nature of the current equipment. This entails the careful consideration of how to seamlessly incorporate modern technology while navigating challenges such as outdated infrastructure and existing furniture that cannot be removed. Additionally, the cabling poses a significant challenge due to the constraints of the site being already established. Therefore, a strategic approach is required to upgrade the equipment while minimizing disruption to the existing layout and ensuring compatibility with the current infrastructure.

 

AV upgrades in Costa Mesa improve communication in public meetings, enrich events and educational programs, and enhance emergency management efforts. By fostering transparency, engagement, and efficiency, these upgrades contribute to the city’s advancement and connectivity, meeting the diverse needs of its residents and visitors.
