“The award in Singapore shows that our vision of Trusted. Communication. Always. is understood and appreciated worldwide,” says Martin Gross, CEO of the Commend Group.

Commend Ivy City - Speaking your language

Ivy City is specifically designed for public authorities, public transport organisations and parking facility operators responsible for safety, accessibility and seamless operations in complex urban environments. The concept illustrates how modern security infrastructure can actively interact with people instead of operating passively in the background.
At the heart of Ivy City is the integration of networked IP loudspeaker systems with intelligent audio processing. Advanced noise filtering ensures clear communication even in challenging acoustic conditions, while context-sensitive announcements can be delivered in multiple languages. For municipalities and transport hubs, this results in clearer information flows, faster incident response and improved guidance in highly frequented public spaces.
A key highlight at the exhibition is the SIA New Product Showcase Award from Los Angeles, honoured Ivy Live Translation - an AI-powered real-time language translation solution. Visitors can experience live demonstrations of intercom conversations being translated instantly and bidirectionally, even in noisy and dynamic surroundings. By breaking language barriers in real time, Ivy Live Translation enhances inclusivity and ensures that critical information is understood without delay.
With Ivy City, Commend provides decision-makers in public infrastructure with a future-ready framework for safer, more connected urban environments.
