摘要

Automation manufacturers continue to refine their product lines to meet a customer base that is the equivalent of the Big Bang: Stations are moving in all directions at speeds that have manufacturers sometimes wondering how they're going to keep up. "Every facility is like a fingerprint in that they're slightly different," says Crispin Corp. President and co-founder Alan DeVaney. "What's happened is, it's now commonplace to use video servers for storage and delivery of commercials and interstitials. That wasn't the case seven years ago."
