Develop a perfect presentation with the touch display

With regard to the new JTouch Display Series, a notebook or PC may be connected easily with the touch display. The pleasant touch surface provides a simple operation and an optimum technical basis to inspire the audience during presentations, lectures or conferences. Nevertheless, some hints should be noted …

touch display

A large touch screen enables a brilliant presentation

Wherever you want to use your device from the JTouch Display Series, whether in the classroom, the conference room or a lecture hall: Thanks to generous dimensions of 40, 65 and 70 cm each lecture is an experience. Through accurate screen taps and the high sensitive multi-touch feature you are able to deliver pictures, graphics and written content in crystal clear images. The touch screen displays readable text and true color images and videos even in low light conditions, which increases the success of a presentation by the constant attention of prospective customers. The JTouch screens can also be connected wirelessly, either via video cable (HDMI) or with optional dongle (INA LCKEY) or adapter (INLITESHOW4). While the adapter solution works for all touch screens, the dongle solution can only be used for the following screens: INF4030, INF6501wAG, INF6502WBAG and INF7002WB. Some JTouch models already come innately bundled with a LightCast dongle.

How to use a touch display optimally

Who wants to get the best out of his touch display should follow a few simple tips during operation:
1st:    Use the connection solution for your notebook, which is best for you. If you are standing very close to the screen, maybe a wired connection is enough. If you want to be standing a little further away from the screen, perhaps a wireless connection is to be recommended.
2nd:     Test any new video connection with the notebook which is to be used the day before. So you have the opportunity to try out the various functions calmly. This not only soothes the nerves, it also saves you valuable time, if an update has to be made or settings need to be adjusted.
3rd:    If you decide to connect your laptop to the screen via video cable, do not forget to prepare the required USB Touch Feedback link. This will be required if you want to check or control your notebook on the touch screen.
4th:    During your presentation, ensure that the font size for your text documents is sufficient. Preferable, divide texts on multiple slides and select a larger font that can be read from the back row.
5th:    Integrate the whiteboard in your presentation by mediating content on it actively and encourage the audience to interact. This will mainly promote the cooperation of the students in the classroom.

Executive Briefing Center – InFocus opens a showroom near Frankfurt

On June 7, 2016 InFocus had every reason to celebrate: In Dreieich near Frankfurt, the new Executive Briefing Center (EBC) was opened. About 40 partners attended the magnificent event where personal exchange had first priority. In lively presentations they got an insight into the products and IT solutions from InFocus. Today we want to present you a selection of photos of the opening day.

Inauguration of the new showroom and training center

The entire management of InFocus arrived in Dreieich near Frankfurt in order to attend the inauguration of the new showroom and training center: Even EMEA marketing director Christoph Cyrol, European sales director Mark Harris or InFocus CEO Mark Housley were on site to receive numerous specialist dealers and distributors.

In a relaxed atmosphere, InFocus introduced the new showroom to interested parties in small groups. It is located within the walls of the recently acquired AV system house Vidco. In hands-on session there were able to experience the products close up and to let themselves be convinced by the innovative “touch& feel” products: From projectors over the diverse range of touch screens through to the collaboration, video and presentation solutions. In the company-owned training center, informative seminars and technical training will be offered in future.

What comes next after the Executive Briefing Center

“We are pleased to be able to present a modern showroom to our partners now,” Mark Harris said. The Vice President was sure: “The hands-on experience of our diverse product portfolio and the range of professional training for our partners will have a positive effect on our growth in Germany”.

Mark Housley explained that the aim was to establish InFocus firmly in the area of collaboration solutions in the European economic area. “The recent acquisitions of Vidco, Avistar and Jupiter underline the growth course of InFocus in the whole EMEA region,” the CEO continued.

6 tips for presentations with a touch screen PC

Those who want to use the performing monitor during a presentation via touch screen should consider several things. In order to avoid making a fool of yourself in a meeting or in the next conference, here are a few tips from InFocus…

1st: Display the content on a touch screen PC

Before a presentation may start, the content has to be displayed on the screen. By using a USB stick you deliver the presentation background directly to the touch screen PC, but also cable connections to other PCs or Macs are possible, even if in a circumstantial way. We therefore recommend the wireless connection or the immediate use of the touch screen PC.

2nd: Choose the right font size

Since many devices used for presentations still are equipped with small screen sizes, attention should be paid to an appropriate font size when creating a presentation. It is preferable to choose a larger font size that can be read from the last row in the conference room.

3rd: Consider your positioning during the presentation

A presentation will only be successful if the audience hangs spellbound to your every word. Therefore, you should stand with your back to the touch screen PC. Reflect the presentation content in the run-up, take notes or use the mobile view on cell phone.

4th: Add annotations

During a presentation, at best, a gain of insights will take place. You may record these findings directly to your presentation slides, save them and then share them with the audience. Doing so, you freshen up every presentation and optimize further work.

5th: Make use of assistance when operating difficulties occur

Due to excitement, many have to struggle with sweaty hands during a presentation. If the operation of the touch screen PCs causes difficulties, we recommend the use of a stylus. This allows you to safely operate films, set markers and add notes.

6th: Engage in using the new PC

Often new technology represents an additional stress factor for the speaker. Therefore get acquainted to the touch screen PC in advance of a presentation. If you are familiar with the operation of the device, the presentation will be much easier for you.

Enjoy the European Football Championship with an InFocus HD projector

HD video projector

InFocus HD video projector

Public Viewing will enter the head of every soccer fan when thinking of the European Soccer Championship that will take place in France during summer: The public life transmission on large video screens may be enjoyed accompanied by beer and bratwurst together with other football enthusiasts. Anyone who does not want to experience a lull in his gastronomic business in the coming months should be equipped with an InFocus HD video projector

The matching HD projector for the European Championship – advices for buying

On June 10, 2016 the next great soccer event will start at the Stade de France in St-Denis: France, host of the European Championship, will open the soccer tournament, where for the first time 24 instead of 16 teams, as it was the case before, will compete for the coveted Championship Trophy. With an HD projector it is not only possible to watch the opening ceremony, where among others David Guetta is expected to perform. All games transmitted by the broadcasters ARD and ZDF may be viewed in best quality with a projector.
During the HDTV live transmissions the 720p50 format will be used, i.e. a resolution with 1280×720 lines. Yet with projectors in the middle price segment, which lie mostly below the Full HD resolution, football matches are shown in original quality of transmitted HD. Full HD projectors with a resolution of 1080p (1920×1080 lines) even can display for example Blu-ray discs without any quality loss after the European Championship.
The number of lumens should be slightly higher when using an HD projector for public viewing. While about 3200 lumens promise a clear picture in shady places, up to 5000 lumens are required in broad daylight or during changeable weather conditions. Under these circumstances, a bright and clear image transfer with HD projectors is guaranteed.

Affordable HD projectors by InFocus

The experts of InFocus have a wide range of different projectors at their disposal. For an unforgettable European Championship with low projector costs they recommend the IN116x. In order to enjoy full HD resolution even after the European Championship, there is no alternative to the model SP1080. Both products come with 3000 lumens and good to brilliant resolution, in order to persevere spellbound in front of the screen until the final of the European Championship on July 10.
