HDMI® Technology is the foundation for the worldwide ecosystem of HDMI-connected devices; integrated with displays, set-top boxes, laptops, audio video receivers and other product types. Because of this global usage, manufacturers, resellers, integrators and consumers must be assured that their HDMI® products work seamlessly together and deliver the best possible performance by sourcing products from licensed HDMI Adopters or authorized resellers. For HDMI Cables, consumers can look for the official HDMI® Cable Certification Labels on packaging. Innovation continues with the latest HDMI 2.2 Specification that supports higher 96Gbps bandwidth and next-gen HDMI Fixed Rate Link technology to provide optimal audio and video for a wide range of device applications. Higher resolutions and refresh rates are supported, including up to 12K@120 and 16K@60. Additionally, more high-quality options are supported, including uncompressed full chroma formats such as 8K@60/4:4:4 and 4K@240/4:4:4 at 10-bit and 12-bit color.

Designed primarily for visitor and employee badges, the device supports custom content and automated visitor software integration. Each badge is rechargeable via any standard NFC charger or USB-C, delivering a battery life of 3 to 6 months. The hardware is rated as waterproof for durability against spills, and a single badge can be reused approximately 700 times before requiring a charge.
The company also showcased its broader Joan platform, a content management system (CMS) for digital signage that runs on both ePaper and LCD displays. The CMS features a drag-and-drop calendar interface for scheduling content, supports custom user roles and permissions, and can override scheduled content for emergency messages or company events.
The signage platform integrates seamlessly with the Joan meeting room and desk booking ecosystem, supporting wayfinding maps for employees and visitors. Hardware options include fully wireless battery operation, magnetic wiring, and Power over Ethernet (PoE) connectivity. According to the company, ePaper displays consume 99% less energy than traditional LCDs.
Visionect Joan maintains compatibility with third-party devices such as Apple products to provide a unified user interface across mixed technology environments. In the United States, all channel partners distribute products and services through Almo, the company’s official US distributor.
