Attero Tech, a leading company in the world of A/V solutions, has just shipped two new Bluetooth audio interfaces. These aren’t like consumer Bluetooth interfaces in that they were designed specifically for use with the commercially installed A/V systems.

Both interfaces will be available later this month, along with Attero Tech’s unDNEMO-BT Dante network monitor.

As of yesterday, Pokemon Go is available to those countries through Google Play and iTunes!

In this day and age, the Alpha Video Sports and Entertainment division may have the opportunity to put on a show for potential consumers while putting A/V integrators in the spotlight. Given that the expo was a success, with hundreds of people turning up for the event, this doesn’t seem unlikely.
