DICENTIS incorporates several standardized technologies that have been combined to create an open platform. Complete system solutions can be created by simply integrating compatible products. This makes DICENTIS extremely scalable enabling it to evolve with the growing needs of meeting and conference facilities. At its heart the DICENTIS Conference System makes use of the unique IP based OMNEO media networking architecture developed by Bosch. The elegantly designed DICENTIS Discussion devices enable participants to speak register a request to speak and listen to discussion. The DICENTIS Discussion device with voting incorporates standard parliamentary-style voting. To enable the participant to fully concentrate on the discussion the voting touch-buttons only light up when voting is available. The DICENTIS Discussion device with voting also supports fast participant recognition via NFC tag identification.
