ENCO Highlights AI and Virtual Production at InfoComm 2025

ENCO is set to showcase its latest advancements in AI and virtual production at InfoComm 2025, with a focus on AI-driven speech-to-text conversion and immersive AR, VR, and XR technologies. The company’s booth will feature demonstrations of its Qimera virtual production system and enCaption Sierra platform, highlighting how AI is transforming live event captioning and multilingual translations.

AI in the AV Industry

AI is emerging as a dominant trend in the audiovisual (AV) industry, with manufacturers integrating AI into various applications. One of the most promising areas is speech-to-text conversion, which ENCO is leveraging for live events, staging, and real-time captioning. This technology not only provides accurate captions but also enables multilingual translations, making content accessible to global audiences.

"AI is revolutionizing how we approach live events," said Ken Frommert, President of ENCO. "The ability to convert speech to text in real-time, combined with AI-powered translations, opens up new possibilities for inclusivity and engagement."

ENCO’s Focus at InfoComm 2025

ENCO’s booth will spotlight its Qimera virtual production system, which offers robust AR, VR, and XR capabilities. The system’s graphics engine allows for seamless integration of virtual elements into live productions, making it ideal for corporate clients looking to enhance their video content. Additionally, the enCaption Sierra system will demonstrate its speech-to-text and text-to-speech functionalities, including synthetic voice generation for content creation.

The enTranslate plug-in, another key feature, provides on-the-fly content translation and AI-driven overdubs, enabling real-time multilingual support. This technology is particularly valuable for international events where simultaneous translation is essential.

Improving Live Captioning with AI

AI’s role in improving live captioning is a major highlight of ENCO’s presentation. By leveraging advanced language models, AI can enhance the accuracy and quality of captions, surpassing the capabilities of human stenographers. This not only ensures better accessibility but also reduces the margin for error in high-stakes environments like live broadcasting.

"AI allows us to push the boundaries of what’s possible in live captioning," Frommert noted. "The combination of larger language models and real-time processing means we can deliver captions that are more accurate and responsive than ever before."

Inspiration and Industry Trends

ENCO draws inspiration from its customers and partners, using InfoComm as a platform to explore new trends and technologies. The event provides an opportunity to learn how others in the industry are solving problems and creating innovative solutions. This collaborative environment is essential for driving progress in the AV space.

"InfoComm is more than just a showcase of technology," Frommert said. "It’s a chance to connect with others in the industry, share ideas, and find inspiration for the future."

By combining AI with AR, VR, and XR technologies, ENCO is shaping the future of live events and content creation. Attendees can expect to see firsthand how these advancements are transforming the AV industry and opening up new possibilities for immersive experiences.
