Projector performance has always been closely associated with brightness, which has long been the most important parameter in judging the clarity of projected images.

We’ve recently seen a rapid influx of a new generation of entertainment devices like live smart/interactive televisions, 3D video and 4K resolution – which represent a rapid step up in technology. But for these devices to fulfill their potential, they rely on underlying data transport technologies that connects them to other devices and to content…
As we get increasingly aware of the need to reduce our power consumption, the use of LED lighting and lighting control systems has become a very popular means to do this.

Despite the increasing brightness levels of business projectors in general, image clarity can be
challenging in spaces with a lot of ambient light. This is especially so in makeshift/external venues like
terraces or lawns being used for special events and even in alternative meeting spaces within the
office like atriums and cafeterias.
Commonly tried solutions involve the use of…
Interactivity is much sought after in presenting and learning environments, because it allows a fair degree of flexibility and allows presenters to adopt their own presentation style. But as useful as products like interactive whiteboards have been, they’ve added complexity to the presenters’ environment – becoming one more product to purchase, install and operate in…
As the quality and reliability of internet-based conferencing services (like Skype) continue to improve, it is interesting to consider them as a platform for video collaboration in your organisation. One key limitation however, is that the software is tied to the laptop and therefore loses out on clarity when multiple people at different distances from…
