Signature Sight and Sound

In the world of AVL, we often run into a common conflict: a room that looks stunning but wasn't designed with technology in mind.

We recently encountered this with a client whose balcony featured a beautiful, intentional slope. While aesthetically pleasing, it created a major functional hurdle—any pan/tilt camera mounted to it produced a crooked image because the hardware couldn't compensate for the unlevel surface.

Instead of telling the client "it can't be done," Signature’s engineering team designed a custom 3D-printed, 4-degree wedge. This spacer perfectly compensated for the balcony’s slope, leveling the camera and allowing for a full, professional range of motion. We even color-matched the material to the Panasonic camera body for a seamless, factory-finish look.

This is just one example of how Signature troubleshoots the unique "surprises" that come with every building, such as:

• 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐜 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐲: Correcting for unlevel surfaces or awkward angles.

• 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐎𝐛𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬: Engineering ways to see around pillars or low-hanging ductwork.

• 𝐇𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐜 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐬: Designing non-invasive mounts for sensitive architectural areas.
