CSWS 220

This space features a Crestron Touch panel mounted to the Nomad Podium that allows for easy volume, camera, and display controls. Facing the students is a large white board on which a projector with touch capabilities can display. To the right of that is an LG TV, and between the two, mounted on the ceiling, is an AVer PTZ camera. On the far wall of the room are mounted two LG TVs, and an AVer PTZ camera. Mounted in the ceiling is a Shute microphone array tile, making this space fully Zoom and Skyflex capable.

Additional Screens

Some of our classrooms have additional TV screens on the side or at the back of the room. Many times there is a camera near the additional screens. With this arrangement, if there are remote students joining the class, they can be seen on the back TVs. When the professor looks at that screen, the relative position of the camera makes the remote student feel like the professor is looking at them.
