Premier Mounts Plays Crucial Role in Improving Public Libraries

 

Premier Mounts played a crucial role last summer in improving communication technology at The Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County. Working with A/V integrator Electronic Art and A/V installer Rhombus Services, Premier Mounts provided stock and partially custom mounts for digital signage installations in many of the library's branch locations. The mounts support flat-panel displays for broadcasting library announcements, such as book signings, reading workshops, exhibits and live performances.


 

Mounts used in the project include ceiling mounts for flat-panels (ECM-3763S), P-Series tilting wall mounts (P4263T), a swingout mount for flat-panels (AM175), and two custom column mounts (CUS-651).


Premier Mounts delivered the high-quality mounts within two weeks, which was essential to completing the project on time. "Everything was delivered as promised," said Tim Burke, CEO of Electronic Art. "The mounts were professionally crafted with a lot of attention paid to the fit and finish. Even the installation team, Rhombus, said they wished they had done more projects with Premier Mounts' products."

SANYO Introduces Interactice WXGA Short-Throw Projector that Enables Interactivity with any Projection Surface
 

SANYO announced the introduction of a wide XGA ultra short-throw 3 LCD interactive projector geared for the educational and corporate presentation markets that provides full functionality regardless of the surface on which the image is projected. Unlike existing interactive solutions that require whiteboards or other surfaces with built-in sensors, the PLC-WL2503 operates when any screen or wall surface is used to display the projected image. 2500 lumens brightness and a 500:1 contrast ratio ensure picture quality and clarity, and an ultra-short throw lens creates images from 60 to 110 inches at a distance of no more than 47 inches from the screen.
 

Conventional interactive projector systems require the use of an interactive whiteboard connected to the PC. SANYO's interactive system eliminates this need by providing two interface devices (a pen and a pointer), each containing an infrared (IR) transmitter. When the tip of either device is pressed against the screen or wall surface, it generates an IR signal that is detected by a camera module located on the front surface of the projector. This signal allows the system to determine the relative location of the tip on the projected image, and this information is transmitted to the PC through a USB connection for display on screen. Calibration for setup is considerably simpler than competing projector systems, requiring only half of the calibration points. The system is compatible with virtually all software, as well as the Windows 7, Vista, XP and Mac OS operating systems.
