CHALLENGE

A recognized leader in STEM higher education, this large state university is likewise dedicated to being at the forefront of classroom technology. To make efficient use of technology resources, the university offers instructors a variety of classroom configurations to meet their edtech needs. At the top of these options are classrooms equipped to deliver instruction simultaneously to in-person and remote students. Live-monitored by university IT staff to prevent tech-related disruption, these rooms play an important role in extending the reach of instruction.

One such classroom was due for a major technology update. The existing setup relied on two ceiling-mounted projectors casting content onto dual wall screens. It was time to upgrade to technology that would support the range of modern learning options and instructional modalities: a video wall that would deliver bright, consistently sharp visuals for every student.

The solution also needed to deliver content to in-person and distance learners at the same time, while creating an environment that connected those audiences and gave the instructor intuitive control.

Several types of displays would be needed to support these goals: large, vibrant front-of-room displays for on-site learners, displays to bring Zoom participants into the room, confidence displays for the instructor at the back of the room and a touch display at the instructor podium. All of it maintained and monitored in real time by university IT staff.

SOLUTION

The IT group worked with longtime reseller partner ClarkPowell, which recommended ViewSonic for the display component of the installation. The IT team reviewed the recommendation and agreed it was the right fit, commenting in particular on the durability of ViewSonic dvLED with Glue-on-Board (GOB) construction and the ability to replace individual panels, which would streamline maintenance.

The final front-of-room solution included two 136-inch ViewSonic All-in-One Direct View LED Video Walls (Model LDM136-151) to present class content. These were mounted on either side of a ViewSonic 98-inch Commercial Grade 4K Display (Model CDE9830) to integrate Zoom participants. Two ViewSonic 65-inch Commercial Displays (Model CDE6530) were mounted to the back wall for instructor visibility, one mirroring the instructional content and one showing Zoom participants.

The instructor podium was equipped with a ViewSonic 24-inch Touch Display (Model ID2456), which lets faculty deliver content and connect with students through integrated ViewSonic software.

To ensure seamless operation, the ClarkPowell team integrated the ViewSonic displays into the classroom’s existing Crestron matrix switcher.

RESULTS

The upgraded classroom is now a modern digital learning environment and a model for future classroom refreshes. The integrated technology blends in-person and remote experiences, delivering benefits to faculty, students and the IT team.

Instructors appreciate no longer having to contend with projector lights shining in their eyes, and being able to keep their focus on students while marking up content at the podium. The confidence monitors at the back of the room let presenters confirm that their content looks right on the front screens, while also giving them an interface with students joining on Zoom.

The brightness and consistency of the ViewSonic dvLED displays give classroom and remote students a clearer view of content in all lighting conditions, and deliver strong recorded images, a critical component of serving asynchronous distance learners. The IT team benefits from lower and easier maintenance. Together that means more streamlined instruction with greater efficiency and reduced cost.

Along with the internal response, the IT team has hosted colleagues from other universities interested in the ViewSonic solution, who commented on how good the new displays look. A visiting IT specialist also mentioned that a classroom at their own university had a dvLED wall without a Glue-on-Board surface treatment, which led to damage and repair costs when students bumped into it.

The university’s stated objective for its top-tier technology classrooms is to empower faculty to deliver modern, high-impact instruction to a range of students without the burden of technical barriers. In these spaces, the technology lets faculty focus on teaching rather than troubleshooting. This upgrade achieved that, with durable ViewSonic dvLED walls, commercial displays and a podium touch display as the foundational visual technology.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Made the Old Projector Setup a Problem for Hybrid Instruction?

Two ceiling-mounted projectors cast onto dual wall screens, which created three issues at once. Projector light shone into the instructor’s eyes at the front of the room, image brightness and consistency varied with ambient lighting, and the setup was never designed to serve remote students alongside the in-person class.

Why Choose dvLED Instead of Replacing the Projectors?

Direct View LED holds brightness and consistency in a fully lit room, which matters when the same content has to read clearly for students in the room and on a recording. It also removes the consumables and alignment work a projector requires. For a room that runs most of the day and is monitored in real time by IT, that changes the maintenance profile as much as the image quality.

What Does Glue-on-Board Construction Change for Facilities Teams?

Glue-on-Board encapsulates the LEDs and electronics in a thin resin layer, so the display surface tolerates contact rather than losing pixels to it. In a classroom where students walk past the wall every day, that is the difference between a durable install and a recurring repair line. Tiles are also individually replaceable, so a damaged section is a panel swap rather than a full-unit service call.

How Do Confidence Monitors Help an Instructor Teaching to Two Audiences?

An instructor facing the class cannot see the front-of-room displays. Rear-wall confidence monitors let them verify that content is displaying correctly without turning around, and a second monitor keeps remote participants visible. That is what makes it possible to teach to both audiences without treating one as an afterthought.

Can ViewSonic Displays Integrate With an Existing Crestron System?

Yes. In this installation the integrator brought the ViewSonic displays into the classroom’s existing Crestron matrix switcher, so control stayed on the system the campus already runs. ViewSonic also offers integration with Q-SYS, Extron and AMX platforms.

Is This Configuration Repeatable for Other Classrooms?

That was one of the stated goals. The university treats this room as a model for future refreshes, and the configuration scales down for smaller rooms by reducing the number of front-of-room displays while keeping the same podium and confidence monitor pattern.

What Challenge Was the District Trying to Solve?

This district set out to modernize its classrooms by replacing aging, non-interactive displays across 155 classrooms. The goal was to equip every room with identical interactive capabilities without overloading IT support staff.

Operating under provincial public procurement rules, the district issued a competitive Request for Quotation (RFQ) for 86” commercial and interactive displays.

Beyond initial prices, evaluation criteria focused heavily on system standardization, simplified IT maintenance and long-term operating costs. 

What ViewSonic Solution Did the District Deploy?

The contract was awarded to an audio-visual integration partner bidding with ViewSonic, delivering an identical hardware kit for each of the 155 classrooms. In total, the district ordered:

• 155 ViewBoard^® 86” IFP86G1 4K OS-free interactive displays
• 155 IFP-EW-86-05 extended warranty coverage for each display, extending coverage to 5 years total
• 155 WMK-047-2 wall mounts with Mini PC bracket
• 155 WPD-900 ViewShare wireless presentation systems

Choosing OS-free displays gave the district total control over its software setup. IT teams paired each 86-inch panel with their preferred Windows, Chrome OS or Android computing engine. Down the road, technicians can upgrade system performance simply by swapping out the PC module rather than replacing the display.

The rest of the kit completed the classroom setup, using custom mounts to hide cables, wireless casting to reduce cable clutter and five-year warranties to protect budgets. 

Why Did the District Choose ViewSonic?

The contract was won through open competition against established display manufacturers.

What started as a standard request for display panels grew into a complete per classroom solution covering hardware, custom mounting, wireless presentation tools and multiyear protection.

Rather than forcing IT staff to source piecemeal accessories from different suppliers, ViewSonic and its integration partner delivered a single package built for reliable, daily classroom use. 

What Results Has the District Seen?

• Standardized 155 classrooms on an identical hardware kit containing a display, wall mount, wireless presentation system and extended warranty. •
• Established a single, predictable hardware platform for IT staff to install, manage and support district-wide.
• Protected hardware budgets with OS-free displays that allow computing modules to be upgraded without replacing entire displays.
• Gave teachers reliable equipment and uniform technology in every building. 

Frequently Asked Questions

What Does a Complete ViewBoard Classroom Kit Include?

The district's standard package pairs an OS-free 86” ViewBoard IFP86G1 interactive display with a WMK-047-2 wall mount, an integrated Mini PC bracket, a WPD-900 ViewShare wireless presentation system and extended warranty coverage. Deploying one identical kit per classroom simplifies installation, daily operation and spare parts inventory district-wide.

What Is an OS-Free Interactive Display?

An OS-free display like the ViewBoard IFP86G1 ships without a built-in operating system. Instead of being locked into factory software, IT departments can run Windows, Chrome OS or Android using their choice of slot-in PC or media device. Omitting onboard software reduces common network security risks while allowing IT to refresh computing performance years later without replacing the entire display.

How Do Teachers Share Their Screens Wirelessly on an OS-Free ViewBoard Interactive Display?

Teachers can connect using the WPD-900 ViewShare wireless presentation system, which provides full casting capabilities without relying on an onboard display OS or Wi Fi. The teacher plugs the USB-C transmitter button into their laptop or device, while the receiver module connects directly to the HDMI port on the ViewBoard interactive display. This creates an isolated, encrypted peer-to-peer connection from any Mac, Windows, Chromebook or mobile device without installing software or entering network passwords.

Why Bundle Extended Warranties Into a Classroom Display Purchase?

Bundling extended coverage aligns display protection with the actual expected life of classroom hardware. For public sector buyers managing school board budgets, locking in five full years of coverage upfront establishes total cost of ownership and eliminates unexpected repair expenses.

What Challenge Was the Firm Trying To Solve?

A prominent Canadian business law firm was running into administrative and practical issues with its dual-monitor setups. Lawyers and staff worked across separate monitors, docking stations, external power bricks and cable adapters, with each desk collecting its own tangle of hardware. The firm wanted to move to a cleaner setup built on the latest docking technology. From a support standpoint, managing separate line items for monitors, docks and connection cables added unnecessary work for IT. The firm set out to consolidate its hardware into a single docking monitor SKU that could support a standardized two-screen layout, supply 100W power over USB-C and connect seamlessly to its corporate laptop fleet.

What ViewSonic Solution Did the Firm Deploy?

The firm standardized on 700 ViewSonic^® 27” VG2758-2K QHD docking monitors, building out 350 dual-display workstations across both offices.

With a built-in docking station featuring 100W USB-C power delivery, an RJ45 Ethernet port and a five-port USB hub, each 27” monitor acts as a complete desktop hub.

Employees can connect their laptop to both screens, the wired network and desk peripherals using a single USB-C cable. Thanks to USB-C daisy-chaining, the two monitors link directly to each other, so only one cable is needed to connect to the laptop.

Beyond simplifying connections, the deployment improved daily physical comfort and long-term hardware management. Fully adjustable ergonomic stands let staff tailor screen height, tilt, swivel and pivot to fit their posture without requiring custom mounting arms.

On the operational side, EPEAT and Energy Star certifications support corporate energy targets, while a three-year limited warranty gives IT predictable long-term hardware reliability. 

What Results Has the Firm Seen?

• Consolidated IT procurement into a single monitor SKU across both offices.
• Cleared desk clutter by eliminating standalone docks, external power bricks and redundant cables.
• Enabled single-cable docking for power, dual QHD displays, network and USB peripherals. 

By deploying the VG2758-2K, the firm replaced a cluttered multi-vendor setup with a streamlined workstation standard. IT teams now order, deploy and manage one part number instead of tracking three separate hardware components.

For attorneys and staff, starting the workday takes a single connection. Plugging in one USB-C cable charges the laptop, connects to the wired network and extends the workspace across two QHD screens. The lack of cable clutter keeps private offices looking sharp for client meetings. 

Frequently Asked Questions

What Is a Docking Monitor and How Does It Replace a Separate Dock?

A docking monitor combines a high-performance display with an integrated dock, Ethernet port and USB hub. The ViewSonic VG2758-2K monitor supplies 100W of power over USB-C while routing network traffic and peripheral connections straight through the display, eliminating the need for a separate hardware dock, power brick or cable bundle.

Can a Laptop Drive Two Monitors Over a Single Cable?

Yes. The VG2758-2K supports USB-C daisy-chaining, which lets one monitor pass the video signal directly to the second display. The user plugs a single USB-C cable into their laptop to drive both monitors, access the network and charge their battery.

How Does a Docking Monitor Lower IT Overhead?

Combining the dock and display into a single SKU simplifies sourcing, inventory management and lifecycle support. IT teams can track one part number rather than managing separate monitors, standalone docks, dongles and power cables.

Does the VG2758-2K Support Laptops Without USB-C?

Yes. Alongside USB-C, the VG2758-2K includes native HDMI and DisplayPort inputs. This allows legacy laptops to connect easily while giving the firm a clear path to universal single-cable USB-C docking as devices are refreshed.

What Challenge Was NLSchools Trying To Solve?

As the public school system for Newfoundland and Labrador, NLSchools operates across one of the most geographically spread-out regions in Canada. Upgrading technology across a territory that size involves far more than unboxing new displays. Because the district was replacing its legacy interactive displays and annotation software, getting teachers comfortable with the new system was critical. That meant pairing a new software suite with hands-on training from day one.

From an IT perspective, supporting remote Labrador classrooms required cloud tools, simply because sending a technician on-site often meant booking a flight or a ferry. Adding to the challenge, several older school buildings featured unique structural layouts, including solid rock walls that ruled out standard hardware mounts. 

What ViewSonic Solution Did NLSchools Deploy?

• 820 ViewBoard^® interactive displays deployed across the province, replacing older legacy hardware
• 273 ViewSonic^® projectors
• OS-free IFPG1 Series displays paired with ViewSonic VPC Windows slot-in PCs
• The complete ViewSonic education software suite
• ViewSonic Manager Advanced for remote cloud management
• BalanceBox specialized wall mounts for complex wall surfaces 

Pairing OS-free ViewBoard IFPG1 displays with Windows VPC slot-in PCs brought flexible desktop computing directly into classrooms. Manager Advanced software provided IT admins remote access to classroom displays. For older facilities, specialized BalanceBox mounts solved structural hurdles by safely anchoring heavy gear directly onto solid rock walls.

Why Did the NLSchools Move to ViewSonic?

Replacing a brand that had been standard issue across Canadian classrooms for decades took more than a competitive price tag. NLSchools needed a partner that could solve their classroom software and geographic hurdles at the same time.

ViewSonic earned the district's trust because its displays, classroom software and cloud management tools functioned as a unified system.

To help teachers adapt, ViewSonic backed its software suite with direct, hands-on training, taking the stress out of moving away from legacy tools.

On the operational side, ViewSonic Manager Advanced software gave IT full control over displays in remote Labrador classrooms. Being able to monitor and update hardware remotely from a single dashboard eliminated unnecessary flight and ferry trips, saving significant travel expenses every school year. 

How Did Microsoft-Restricted Funding Shape the IFPG1 Purchase?

NLSchools received a grant exclusively for Microsoft products. ViewSonic's OS-free IFPG1 ViewBoard offered a direct fit. Pairing the display with a VPC slot-in PC running Windows 11 Pro satisfied the grant requirement while equipping classrooms with a complete Windows system.

That modular setup also protects the district's investment over time. Instead of replacing an entire display when computing hardware ages, IT can simply swap in an upgraded PC module. By removing the operating system from the display itself, the district eliminated potential security backdoors into school networks. 

What Results Has the NLSchools Seen?

• Standardized classroom technology across the province, deploying 820 ViewBoard interactive displays, including the OS-free IFPG1 series paired with VPC slot-in PCs, alongside 273 ViewSonic projectors.
• Helped teachers fully migrate from legacy annotation tools to the ViewSonic education software suite without disrupting daily instruction.
• Empowered IT admins to manage remote classroom displays through Manager Advanced software, eliminating expensive flight and ferry service trips.
• Safely mounted heavy displays in legacy buildings with solid rock walls using specialized BalanceBox hardware.

What Challenge Was This E-Commerce Company Trying To Solve?

When a Canadian multinational e-commerce company opened a new training facility at its Toronto head office, the team needed a high-impact Direct View LED (dvLED) display for the main stage. They wanted the largest screen the room could accommodate. However, the space was designed to serve multiple functions, making a permanent wall installation impractical for their daily workflow. The setup needed to be adaptable, giving organizers the freedom to reposition the display depending on the event.

To address that need for flexibility, the company initially evaluated ViewSonic's 138” LDS138-151 foldable all-in-one dvLED mobile display, which is built specifically for mobile applications.

While it offered the portability the team wanted, 138” turned out to be too small for the scale of the space. That left the team with the challenge of finding a display that maximized screen real estate while still delivering true mobile functionality.

What ViewSonic Solution Did They Deploy?

• ViewSonic^® 163” LDE163G-182 All-in-One Direct View LED display
• LD-STND-009 mobile stand with lockable caster wheels

Since the 138” model was too small for the room, the company and its AV partner looked for a larger All-in-One display that could still move freely. They landed on the 163” LDE163G-182 dvLED display mounted to a ViewSonic LD-STND-009 cart. At 163”, it hit the sweet spot by providing the largest screen size that could fit the training space while remaining fully mobile on a cart setup.

The panel features 600-nit brightness, a 6,500:1 contrast ratio and a 1.88 mm pixel pitch for clear viewing across the room. Glue-on-Board surface protection along with IP54 dust and water resistance and an IK06 impact rating protect the display in high-traffic environments.

Hot-swappable front modules make routine maintenance simple. For system control, the display works with Crestron, Extron and AMX, and carries a Q-SYS verified plugin so IT can connect the mobile display right into their existing AV control setup. 

Why Did the Company Choose ViewSonic?

The team evaluated other top dvLED vendors, but none matched ViewSonic on price for a truly portable display. The combination of maximum screen size, smooth cart mobility and competitive pricing made it the right fit for the project.

What Results Has the Company Seen?

• The 163” display now moves freely around the training center on its cart, instead of staying locked to one wall.
• The team got the maximum screen size for the space at a competitive price, and the solution ticked off every box the account team had.
• Installers praised how straightforward the setup was, thanks to the display's all-in-one design and included mounting hardware. 

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a Direct View LED display be mobile instead of wall-mounted?

Yes. ViewSonic all-in-one dvLED displays mount onto mobile stands with lockable caster wheels. That lets screens as large as 163” move easily between rooms and stage layouts. For smaller spaces, ViewSonic offers the 136" LDS136-152 foldable display on a motorized stand.

How large can a mobile dvLED display be?

Mobile displays can reach 163” on a cart, which was the maximum size deployed at the Toronto training center. Practical limits usually come down to ceiling heights, doorway clearances and hallway space. Always measure the entire route through the building, not just the destination wall.

What makes an All-in-One dvLED display easy to install?

All-in-One models like the ViewSonic LDE163G-182 dvLED display build power systems, controls and image stitching right into the cabinet modules. They also ship with the mounting hardware in the box. Integrators don't have to deal with the complex custom engineering of traditional LED walls, which keeps setup fast and straightforward. During this installation, the integrator's installers specifically praised the ease of setup.

Does a dvLED display integrate with corporate AV control systems?

Yes. The LDE163G-182 works with Crestron, Extron and AMX platforms. It also features a Q-SYS verified plugin along with RS-232 and LAN control. That lets IT teams manage a mobile display just like any standard room system.

CHALLENGE

A global retail brand runs an annual technology refresh across its corporate offices and physical stores. For this cycle the priority was visualization: giving design and product teams a display they could trust when they judge colors and materials.

Small differences in how a screen renders a color can change a decision. When teams at different sites worked on different displays, a material approved at one location did not always look the same at another. The brand needed one color reference everywhere, so a sign-off in one office holds up in the next.

SOLUTION

The brand deployed hundreds of ViewSonic^® ColorPro^® VP2756-4K monitors across its corporate offices and stores.

The ViewSonic monitors sit where color decisions get made. Design and product teams use them to review designs, colors and materials before approval, and cross-functional groups use them when everyone needs to agree on what they are looking at.

That type of work requires more from a display than a standard office monitor can deliver. Office monitors are not calibrated for color accuracy, so a design approved on one screen can look different on the next.

The VP2756-4K is built for the job. Every unit is individually factory calibrated and Pantone Validated, covers 100% of sRGB and Rec. 709, and holds Delta E value under 2. At 4K resolution on a 27-inch IPS panel, reviewers also see detail that earlier displays flattened.

“The color accuracy and level of detail offered by the VP2756-4K allow us to work with greater confidence when reviewing designs and materials, facilitating decision-making and collaboration across our teams.”

RESULTS

Design and product review teams now work from one shared color reference across every site in the project. Working from the same reference removed a recurring source of friction, where two reviewers looking at the same file described two different colors, and product approval cycles move faster because nobody is relitigating what the screen is showing.

The deployment did more than replace hardware. A color-critical display is now part of how design and product decisions get made. The result is more consistency, better accuracy and faster turnaround.

Challenge

Employees at this government agency are regularly sent to sites of natural disasters to provide aid and support to affected victims. Setting up traditional field offices used to require trailers, office furniture, desktop computers, bulky monitors and standalone power generators.

These setups were expensive to transport, slow to assemble and tough to adjust when conditions changed quickly. The agency needed a lightweight, secure system that teams could set up in minutes without depending on heavy equipment or massive infrastructure. They needed enough screen space to handle communications, logistics, case management and planning without being weighed down.

Why Did This Agency Choose ViewSonic Portable Monitors?

The agency chose ViewSonic^® portable monitors to help power its mobile office strategy. Instead of lugging around full desktop workstations, field personnel can travel light with laptop setups paired with portable monitors.

By trading trailers, generators and desktop workstations for ViewSonic portable monitors, this government agency can now deploy secure, fully functional field offices in minutes instead of hours, freeing personnel to focus on the mission instead of the setup.

What ViewSonic Solutions Did This Agency Deploy?

The agency deployed two ViewSonic portable monitor models across its field teams:

• ViewSonic 14” VG1457 Dual-Screen Portable Monitor with 65W USB-C Power Delivery and Protective Case
• ViewSonic 15.6” TD1655 Portable Touch Monitor with 60W USB-C Pass-Through Charging and Protective Cover

The VG1457’s dual 14” screens fold into a 2.6-lb setup that triples the amount of available screen space. Paired with a laptop’s own screen, the two folding panels bring the total workspace to three screens instead of one.

This means that field personnel get enough room to run maps, case files and communications side by side instead of toggling between windows on one screen.

Five display modes, including Extend, Share, Mirror, Full-Screen and Dual Source Mode, let a team member adjust the setup for solo case work, side-by-side briefings or other tasks in the field.

Two-way 65W USB-C power delivery lets the monitor draw power from a connected laptop or charge that laptop when an outlet is available. That flexibility can be helpful at disaster sites, where reliable power infrastructure is not always available.

For workstations that need more hands-on control, the agency deployed the TD1655 touchscreen monitor. Its touch capability lets staff interact directly with maps and software. It also offers 60W USB-C pass-through charging, which powers connected devices through one clean cable setup.

The compact design reduces overall equipment weight and speeds up setup during emergency response missions.

Results

• Reduced dependence on heavy trailers, office furniture and bulky field equipment
• Accelerated setup times for temporary field offices in disaster zones
• Created a more flexible and mobile workforce during emergency operations
• Simplified workstation setups through USB-C cables and built-in power delivery
• Boosted user productivity using dual-screen and touchscreen setups
• Cut transportation and logistical requirements for field operations

Switching to portable monitors changed how the agency sets up shop in emergency situations.

Teams now pack far less gear while keeping the full productivity of a multi-monitor office, letting them focus on relief efforts instead of building out workspace infrastructure.

Challenge

A major energy utility company needed a better way to stream daily updates in its main cafeteria, a high-traffic space built for nearly 750 employees.

Three smaller displays mounted on a track system split messaging across separate screens, making company updates hard to follow. At the same time, high ceilings, an open layout and sunlight from large windows created glare that washed out the displays during peak lunch hours.

The utility company needed a single large-format display that was readable from anywhere in the room.

There were other challenges as well. Floor space was off-limits for mounting gear because the room regularly fills to capacity, so hardware had to be mounted cleanly against the wall. To keep daily operations running, the organization needed a fast installation that didn’t require major construction or heavy scaffolding.

What ViewSonic Solution Did They Deploy?

Working with TSI Turtle, the utility company replaced its three-display setup with a single ViewSonic^® 163” LDM163-182 All-in-One Direct View LED (dvLED) display. Pushing 600 nits of brightness, the display cuts through daylight so employees can read messaging clearly from any table.

The all-in-one design helped drastically simplify the installation process. With an ultra-slim design and durable Glue-on-Board (GOB) surface treatment that delivers an IP54 rating, the display sits flush on the wall while standing up to everyday bumps and spills. Because the detachable control bar can be placed behind the display or up to 30 feet away, the installers didn’t need floor-standing racks or extra room modifications.

Why Did the Utility Company Choose ViewSonic and How Fast Was the Deployment?

The utility company chose ViewSonic for its rapid turnaround capabilities and hands-on partner support. ViewSonic worked with TSI Turtle on the installation. A ViewSonic Solutions Engineer joined the crew on-site to further streamline the process.

Because power, processing and image stitching are built directly into the display hardware, the crew didn’t have to waste time wiring external control boxes or aligning separate panels.

What Results Has the Utility Company Seen?

• Replaced three separate displays with one continuous 163” All-in-One LDM163-182 Direct View LED display for clear employee messaging.
• A 600-nit display remains clear and legible, even during daylight hours.
• Completed a clean, wall-mounted install without floor equipment.
• Protected display hardware against public wear with IP54-rated surface protection.

Replacing split screens with a single dvLED video wall gave the utility company a professional, high-impact image for staff communications in its busiest shared space.

Challenge

A maritime defense contractor supporting U.S. military and naval operations uses a 52-foot by 32-foot briefing room for daily training, employee onboarding and presentations to visiting Navy leadership. However, its existing dual 85” displays couldn’t deliver the legibility or presence the large space required.

People seated near the back struggled to read detailed content, and high ambient light washed out the screens during daytime sessions. Hosting senior military personnel meant the room needed an executive-level visual upgrade.

At the same time, the project carried strict physical constraints. The hardware had to use existing power and network connections without disturbing decorative teak ceiling panels that would be costly and difficult to remove.

What ViewSonic Solution Did They Deploy?

The contractor deployed a single ViewSonic^® 163” LDM163-182 All-in-One Direct View LED (dvLED) display. Delivering Full HD resolution at 600 nits of brightness, the display stays sharp and readable in high ambient light, ensuring even participants 30 feet away can read fine detail clearly.

The display also solved the room’s mounting challenges. Featuring an ultra-slim profile and an included wall mount, its detachable control bar can sit up to 30 feet away.

This setup allowed installers to connect directly to existing power and network infrastructure, leaving the decorative teak ceiling untouched. Guided by the ViewSonic Field Solutions team, the reseller partner completed the display deployment without interrupting daily operations.

Why Did the Contractor Choose a ViewSonic dvLED Display?

The relationship started the winter before, when the contractor installed ViewSonic’s 110” ViewBoard^® interactive displays in another conference room. Seeing how well those screens performed gave the contractor full confidence to evaluate large-format dvLED options for its flagship briefing room.

The reseller partner priced out two options, comparing the 163” model against a larger 231” screen. The contractor chose the 163” LDM163-182 because it hit the target budget while supplying the size, brightness and impact required for senior leadership briefings.

What Results Has the Organization Seen?

• Replaced two 85” displays with one seamless 163” dvLED video wall so participants can read text clearly from 30 feet away.
• Maintained a sharp, high-contrast image with 600 nits of brightness that doesn’t wash out under daylight.
• Created an executive-ready environment for briefings with Navy leadership and key stakeholders.
• Completed a clean installation that reused existing infrastructure while preserving the decorative teak ceiling.

What started as a single room upgrade grew into a complete overhaul of its flagship briefing space. By switching to a unified dvLED solution, the contractor got a high-impact setup that doesn’t falter during critical defense presentations.

Challenge

As one popular coworking organization expanded across the Western United States, managing a patchwork of display brands became a massive operational drain.

Every new space brought a mix of private offices, meeting rooms and event venues that needed screens.

But using multiple display manufacturers meant that every room worked differently, so that IT and its support partner had to handle separate software updates, control setups and support lines for each location.

To continue supporting its rapid growth, the organization couldn’t keep adding separate systems. It needed to consolidate onto one commercial display family and get a cloud management platform that would enable remote updates and device management.

What ViewSonic Solution Did They Deploy?

The organization worked with its integration partner to deploy 96 ViewSonic® CDE31 series of commercial displays across five sizes, ranging from 43 to 86 inches.

Standardizing on one display family gave every room the right screen size while keeping the core hardware identical. Each display features 4K UHD resolution, 500-nit brightness, a 24/7 operation rating, native RS-232 control and compatibility with Crestron, Extron and AMX, plus Q-SYS Library certification.

To further streamline operations, the organization added a 5-year ViewSonic Manager Advanced software license.

Manager Advanced builds on the free ViewSonic Manager platform with added automation and remote desktop access, giving the integration partner visibility across every site. This lets IT admins push software updates, monitor device health and resolve issues remotely without sending a technician on site.

What Results Has the Organization Seen?

• Standardized 96 displays across multiple locations using a single commercial display line.
• Centralized fleet monitoring and remote management through one cloud console.
• Reduced maintenance demands by consolidating onto one manufacturer ecosystem.
• Delivered a consistent user experience across huddle rooms, offices and event halls.
• Created a scalable technology foundation to support future site expansions.

By replacing a mixed display setup with one unified ecosystem, the organization cut maintenance demands and gave members a reliable experience in every room.

Centralized oversight through Manager Advanced software lets its partner handle updates proactively, keeping workspace displays running without interrupting daily business.

Challenge

A U.S. metal manufacturer needed a large interactive display for teams to review plans, designs and presentations. Like most industrial firms, it treats every connected device as a security liability. Standard smart displays run an embedded operating system that IT has to constantly patch and protect. The manufacturer wanted touchscreen collaboration without exposing its network to extra intrusion risks.

What ViewSonic Solution Did the Manufacturer Deploy?

The manufacturer worked with integration partner Sidebarr to evaluate two ViewSonic^® 86” 4K interactive displays, the standard ViewBoard^® IFP8641 and the OS-free IFP86G1. While both provided ample screen space, the IFP86G1 reduced network risks by skipping the built-in operating system entirely.

Presenters simply plug in directly from their laptops. Without local storage or background software, sensitive files never touch the display and malware has nowhere to hide. Sidebarr recommended the IFP86G1 as the best overall value for its touchscreen performance, price point, solid warranty and U.S.-based support.

What Results Has the Manufacturer Seen?

• Met both collaboration and security requirements with a single display.
• Kept meeting data off the network by running presentations directly from user laptops.
• Removed OS patching and software maintenance from IT’s workload.
• Gave teams fast touch controls and annotation tools for daily plan reviews.

The manufacturer got a massive screen that makes reviewing designs easier while keeping network risk to a minimum. By omitting the built-in operating system, Sidebarr and ViewSonic turned a potential IT security burden into a seamless collaboration tool.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Is an OS-Free Interactive Display?

An OS-free display is a touchscreen with no built-in operating system. With the ViewSonic ViewBoard IFP86G1, users connect directly from their own device or add an optional slot-in PC. There’s no native software to update and no meeting data saved on the screen.

Are OS-Free Interactive Displays More Secure Than Standard Smart Displays?

They reduce risk in two key ways: there’s no embedded OS to exploit and no local storage for sensitive files. An OS-free display like the IFP86G1 leaves a much smaller attack surface than a traditional smart screen. This manufacturer picked it specifically to keep OS vulnerabilities off its network.

Does Removing the Operating System Reduce IT Maintenance?

Yes. Without an embedded OS, there are no software updates, patches or background programs to manage. Users run everything off their own laptops, which takes ongoing maintenance off IT’s workload.

Can Teams Still Collaborate and Use Touch on an OS-Free Display?

Yes. The IFP86G1 delivers fast multi-point touch and annotation for reviewing plans, files and presentations. Users get full interactivity from their connected device without storing any content on the display.

Ready to Collaborate Without the Operating System Risk?

Talk to a ViewSonic representative or an authorized partner like Sidebarr to learn more about OS-free ViewBoard interactive displays for secure teamwork.

What Challenge Was This University Trying to Solve?

This major state university in the Southeast set out to upgrade its classroom experience and boost student engagement across its campus. For nearly 10 years, each classroom had relied on a single projector paired with a 120” screen.

Those projectors were beginning to fail, and both students and professors had started to complain about the aging setup. The university knew it was time for more than a like-for-like replacement. It wanted a display solution that would genuinely change how lessons landed in the room. 

Why Did the University Move from Projectors to dvLED Displays?

A single centered screen meant students at the edges and the back of the room never got a clear view, and failing projectors made that view dimmer every semester. Rather than buy another round of lamps and replacement units, the university chose to move to Direct View LED technology to truly upgrade its classrooms.

dvLED displays deliver bright, uniform images that hold up with the lights on, with no lamps or filters to replace. ViewSonic's All-in-One Direct View LED LDE136G-152 pairs that with a 100,000-hour rated LED lifespan and 600-nit brightness, a meaningful step up from a decade-old projector. 

What ViewSonic Solution Did They Deploy?

Working with a leading AV integrator, the university standardized on a three-display front wall for the 50+ classroom upgrade:

(2) ViewSonic^® 136” LDE136G-152 All-in-One Direct View LED displays, one on each side of the front of the room

(1) ViewSonic 98” CDE9831 4K commercial display, mounted in the center between the two dvLED displays

The LDE136G-152 All-in-One Direct View LED display puts power, controls and image stitching directly inside the cabinets. It ships as a single SKU, which simplifies setup in the classroom. Glue-on-Board technology with IP54 and IK06 front protection helps the screen stand up to daily use in high-traffic classrooms, while hot-swappable front modules and included spare tiles streamline ongoing maintenance.

The CDE9831 commercial screen anchors the room with 4K resolution, 500-nit brightness and anti-glare glass. It’s rated for 24/7 operation to ensure constant reliability. Both products integrate with Crestron, Extron, AMX and Q-SYS control systems, letting campus AV teams manage every room from one central dashboard. 

Why Did the University Choose ViewSonic?

The university and their integrator partner chose ViewSonic over alternatives for three reasons: the range of display products ViewSonic offers, pricing versus the competition and ViewSonic's responsiveness to both the reseller and the end user.

Because ViewSonic's portfolio spans dvLED and commercial displays, the university sourced the entire front-of-room solution from one manufacturer and one trusted partner. 

What Results Has The University Seen?

The result is a completely new and engaging classroom experience that everyone can see no matter where they’re sitting.

Students responded positively, not only seeing better but feeling that lessons were much more engaging.

Professors said the move from projectors to dvLED was even more of an upgrade than they had expected.

With 50+ classrooms complete, the three-display configuration now serves as the university's standard for future classroom refreshes. 

Frequently Asked Questions

Why Replace Classroom Projectors with dvLED Displays?

Projectors dim over time, need lamp and filter replacements and struggle in bright rooms. dvLED displays like ViewSonic's LDE136G-152 deliver 600-nit brightness with a 100,000-hour rated LED lifespan, so content stays bright and readable with the lights on and there's no lamp to replace.

What Display Setup Works for Large University Classrooms?

One proven approach is a three-display front wall with two 136” dvLED displays flanking a 98” 4K commercial display. A major state university in the Southeast deployed this ViewSonic configuration across 50+ classrooms so every student has a clear view regardless of their seat.

What Makes an All-in-One dvLED Display Practical for a Multi-Classroom Rollout?

What Challenge Was This Financial Institution Trying To Solve?

This large financial institution's boardroom is where its most important conversations happen, and the existing display wasn't holding up its end. The institution wanted to replace it with a larger, brighter, more detailed presentation display worthy of the space. The project infrastructure had three hard constraints.

1. The new display had to fit an existing recessed space that could accommodate up to 140”.
2. It had to reach a fifth-floor location, which ruled out traditional large-format displays that can't be transported through elevators and corridors at that size.
3. It had to be in stock or on site within 30 days. 

What ViewSonic Solution Did They Deploy?

Working with its AV integration partner, the firm chose the ViewSonic^® All-in-One Direct View LED LDE136G-152. At 136", the screen filled almost every inch of the boardroom's 140" recessed wall.

The cabinet-based design also solved a major delivery headache. The team couldn't squeeze a giant, one-piece panel up to the fifth floor, so the system arrived in smaller cabinets. These modular units come with built-in power, controls and image stitching, meaning they went up on the wall quickly and fit together easily.

ViewSonic had the product in stock and ready to ship within the firm's tight 30-day window. Because the parts were so lightweight, they were easy to carry upstairs and didn't overload the boardroom wall. And with 600 nits of brightness and a 6,500:1 contrast ratio, the new screen helped keep presentations clear and readable even with ambient lighting.

What Results Has The Institution Seen?

• A high-impact, high-brightness, detailed display that made the boardroom come together.
• A low-maintenance solution: hot-swappable front LED modules with calibrated spare tiles, and a 100,000-hour rated LED lifespan with no lamps or filters to replace.
• Delivered and installed within the institution's 30-day window, in a 5th floor space traditional large-format displays couldn't reach. 

Frequently Asked Questions
