We had a great training lesson this week from Jack Stewart from Hitachi on the StarBoard Interactive Display Device. Jack discussed the main features of the StarBoard which includes: Navigate, Annotate, & Input. He demonstrated the hand writing recognition tool and showed us advanced features of the StarBoard software. I learned new tricks for creating customized toolbars and new methods for using the different software modules.
Jack’s visit was also allowed us to showcase how we are using the Hitachi product as part of the newly integrated control system that we have prototyped in D004. The control system eliminates the need for web-based control for our Phoenix/AMX Media system allowing an instructor to come into the room and turn on devices without the need for launching a web-browser on the lectern PC. We plan on implementing this new control system as part of the new classrooms in the F-Wing Overbuild. We did an onsite demonstration of this new system on January 5, 2006. NJEdge also streamed the event and has a link to the WebCast.
