SP Controls Combines Simplicity of Doceri with Seamless Management of Classroom AV
South San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) June 24, 2016 -- ISTE Booth #2732 – SP Controls has launched the Doceri Collaborative Solution, an integrated package that gives teachers seamless and intuitive control of classroom content and AV equipment while providing a simple solution for centralized monitoring, control and security campus-wide.
At the system’s heart is the popular Doceri, an interactive whiteboard and screencast recorder for iPad. With its sophisticated tools for hand-drawn graphics and remote desktop control, Doceri allows teachers to move freely through the classroom and interact individually with students while controlling and annotating content on projectors or monitors. Doceri Collaborative Solution takes this control further with the ability to remotely manage AV equipment in the room. HDMI sources, media devices, audio volume and projector/monitor controls are all available on the iPad via Doceri.
Equipment connections in the room are centralized in the secure, easily installed SmartBox II. Devices such as the SP Controls Networked Room Controller (NRC), AmpLinc Hub audio distribution hub, HDMI switcher and device control pucks are all located in the SmartBox II. The SmartBox II can be pre-configured for individual classroom requirements and shipped as a complete system. Pole, wall and ceiling mounts are available.
Remote monitoring and management of the classroom is accomplished via the NRC. It uses a Web interface for centralized access; in addition to equipment setup and management, the NRC can perform time-of-day functions, lock out unauthorized users and alert system administrators of problems with the system.
Also available in the Doceri Collaborative Solution are SP Controls’ versatile PixiePro wall panel, a discreet, modular, IR-learning AV control panel; HDMI wall plate for fast connection of two sources, amplifier pucks for driving 8 ohm loudspeakers and Doceri Collaborative Display, a wirelessly-connected display for use in conference rooms and other collaboration spaces.
