This episode is the team\u2019s end-of-show download after days of booth demos, hallway meetings, badge scans, lukewarm coffee, live shows, sketchy product pitches, and enough walking to qualify as either professional development or a cry for help. The crew talks through what actually stood out on the show floor, including the quiet rise of REST APIs, AV gear that\u2019s finally opening up to outside control, middleware boxes that make existing systems smarter, and AI that might be useful when it isn\u2019t just being sprinkled on brochures like tradeshow glitter. They also pick their favorite finds from the week, including Inogeni\u2019s IP2USB tools, Ross Vertex\u2019s \u201cwait, it does what?\u201d visualization platform, Nureva\u2019s HDX audio approach, larger-chip PTZ cameras, decentralized DSP, and Epson\u2019s beautifully boring direct-view LED display that does the one thing AV people keep begging for: display the image without trying to become a smart TV. It\u2019s the InfoComm wrap show: part trend report, part group therapy, part warning label for anyone who thinks \u201cquick booth visit\u201d means anything under 45 minutes. &amp;nbsp; News article:  https:\/\/www.avinteractive.com\/news\/fire-breaks-out-on-ba-flight-packed-with-infocomm-visitors-16-06-2026\/ &amp;nbsp; Alternate show titles:   Acoustic chicken   Rise of REST   Just use these and put it in there   This is my excited face   Costco Down   I might actually trust NDI now   Down to one tchotchke and life is good   There\u2019s AI built in!
