ViewSonic Launches New All-in-One Direct View LED Displays

A Premium All-in-One Direct View LED Display Solution, the ViewSonic LD Series Come in 135- and 163-inch Sizes and are Built to Deliver Stunning Visuals

INFOCOMM 2020, BREA, CA (June 16, 2020) – ViewSonic Corp., a leading global provider of display solution products, launches a new line of direct view LED displays. As an all-in-one cost- effective alternative to the traditional custom-made video walls, the 135-inch LD135-151 and 163-inch LD163-181 are designed to make an impactful impression in a variety of environments, including lobbies and boardrooms. These two direct view models are designed for professional-grade, 24/7 operation in large venues where effective messaging via digital signage is required.



As an all-in-one display solution, the ViewSonic® LD135-151 and LD163-181 seamlessly deliver content without lines or distortion for one continuous and smooth image, leading the viewer to be completely immersed in the message. These direct view LED displays are composed of one main cabinet and multiple panels for easy installation. When installed, each individual panel auto-configures and calibrates its location and setting values within the display as a singular unit. This eliminates the need for complicated set-up processes – all that is needed is to turn on the display. The displays may be installed easily with two people and within two hours, ensuring installers can save their customers time and labor costs.

“ViewSonic continues to offer our ProAV partners innovative products to help them grow and evolve,” said Bryan Phann, Sr. business line manager of LFD/commercial displays at ViewSonic. “With the LD series of direct view LED displays, we’re providing an all-in-one cost- effective alternative to the traditional custom-made video walls,  that is easy to install, calibrate and maintain. The LD135-151 is larger than four 67-inch LCD displays, while the LD163-181 is larger than four 81-inch LCD displays combined. This ensures that users are getting a messaging and communications platform that is stunning and immersive, without extraneous hours of installation or costs.”

At 135- and 163-inches respectively, the LD135-151 and LD163-181 displays deliver stunning visuals with 1080p Full HD resolution and a wide 120% Rec.709 color gamut. Compatible with the Android 8.0 O/S, the ViewSonic LD135-151 and LD163-181 come equipped with powerful twin dual-core processors, 4GB RAM and 32GB of internal memory. They also feature integrated ViewBoard® Cast screen sharing software, so users can easily share content. A 4-in-1 split feature allows four presenters to securely display media from any device and can easily mirror content to multiple displays.

A powerful embedded SoC platform delivers an innovative viewing experience, by simplifying installation and maintenance, so there is no need for external devices to communicate with a server. With remote configuration and content management system support, both the LD135-151 and LD163-181 are optimized for digital signage applications, and are compatible with Crestron, Extron and AMX automated control systems for seamless integration.

Campus Urbano Obtiene Tres Ventajas Claras con las Soluciones de ViewSonic®



Caso práctico

Campus Urbano Obtiene Tres Ventajas Claras con las Soluciones de ViewSonic®:

Alertas de Emergencia Confiables, Muros Digitales y Aprendizaje Interactivo

Compañía

Ubicada en el corazón de Houston, la cuarta ciudad más grande de los Estados Unidos, UHD ofrece títulos de grado en 44 áreas de estudio, además de ocho másteres. Con una proporción de 20 estudiantes por 1 profesor, UHD brinda un entorno de aprendizaje práctico y único para cada estudiante.

  • ePoster digital interactivo todo en uno ViewSonic EP5540T de 55"
  • Pantallas interactivas ViewSonic ViewBoard IFP7750-E1

Resultado:

  • El nuevo sistema EAS se implementó rápidamente, y es confiable y fácil de mantener
  • El muro de premios digitales se actualiza de manera fácil y eficaz, es más ecológico y ofrece un aspecto más moderno
  • Los estudiantes y los profesores disfrutan de la interactividad mejorada que ofrecen las pantallas interactivas ViewBoard de ViewSonic
  • La universidad planea más implementaciones de las soluciones de ViewSonic.

We’re very happy with the ViewSonic emergency alert system solution.
It’s very dependable. It works well with our software. It receives signals promptly, and we’ve had zero losses. They’re workhorses.

— Steven Cachia, Subdirector de Tecnología de la Información de la Universidad de Houston-Downtown

Problema

Los sistemas de alertas de emergencias (EAS, por sus siglas en inglés) son una prioridad crítica para los campus de educación superior,
tal como lo establece la Ley Clery a nivel nacional. El campus de la Universidad de Houston
Downtown tenía un EAS antiguo. Se implementó en 2011, pero nunca cumplió
con los objetivos de la institución.

“En ese entonces, no pudimos encontrar un sistema de señalización digital que hiciera lo que queríamos”, dijo Steven Cachia, subdirector de Tecnología de la Información. “Así que usamos un sistema para Android, que terminó presentando algunos problemas graves”.

Además de ser necesario que el equipo de TI modificara las tablets, desarrollara su propia aplicación y creara un método de encendido personalizado, el sistema requería de mucho mantenimiento y no era muy confiable.

“Hace varios años, decidimos tomarnos esto en serio y hacer una mejora”, dijo Cachia. “Comenzamos a buscar un sistema que ofreciera alertas rápidas y seguras”.

También era necesario que la implementación fuera sencilla y que tuviera una potencia confiable.

Solución

UHD se propuso realizar un análisis del mercado. El equipo de Cachia encontró que las opciones eran limitadas.
“No había muchos proveedores en este espacio que pudieran ofrecer todo lo que buscábamos”, dijo Cachia. “Además de las especificaciones funcionales, buscábamos un producto confiable de una marca sólida, una empresa que estuviera dispuesta a ayudarnos en todo el proceso”.

El equipo descubrió que ViewSonic tenía un producto ideal que satisfacía sus necesidades:
el ePoster digital interactivo todo en uno de ViewSonic EP1042T de 10.1". Los más de 30 años de experiencia de la empresa y la sólida reputación de la marca sirvieron para marcar la casilla de
"está aquí para largo plazo".

“Los monitores EP1042T de ViewSonic tienen un reproductor de medios integrado que nos permite
bloquearlo para evitar manipulaciones”, señala Cachia. “Y, con Power over
Ethernet, la configuración fue realmente inmediata”.

Dijo, además, que ofrecían exactamente lo que buscaban y a un buen precio
para el presupuesto con el que contaban. El equipo de Cachia evaluó las pantallas, que funcionaban
sin problemas con el proveedor de software interactivo que tenían, Four Winds Interactive.
La decisión fue clara, y Cachia invirtió en 250 unidades.

Resultado

Además de la sencilla instalación Power over Ethernet, Cachia dijo que todo en los monitores de ViewSonic EP1042T de 10 pulgadas facilitaba la entrega y administración del sistema.

“Estamos muy satisfechos con la solución de EAS de ViewSonic”, dijo Cachia. “Es muy confiable. Funciona bien con nuestro software. Recibe las señales con rapidez y no tuvimos ninguna pérdida. Son caballitos de batalla”. Agregó que, básicamente, el nuevo sistema de alertas de UHD ha sido una aplicación de esas que “uno instala y se olvida” para el equipo de TI. Por suerte, el sistema no se ha usado mucho en tiempo real. Cuando se activó en respuesta a lo que resultaron ser incidentes menores, el EAS se desempeñó de manera admirable, envió alertas a las aulas y a los pisos afectados. Las pruebas periódicas confirman el buen estado constante de este sistema fundamental, que es monitoreado y administrado por la policía local y por el Departamento de Relaciones Públicas del campus.

Cachia dijo que todo lo relacionado con el proyecto del EAS se desarrolló tan bien que UHD volvió a confiar en ViewSonic para su siguiente instalación de señalización digital. “Durante años,
la universidad ha estado mostrando los premios en un corredor muy transitado con carteles impresos
grandes. Ya era hora de hacer un cambio. También sentimos la necesidad de evaluar un nuevo
proveedor de señalización digital y queríamos ver cómo funcionaría el back-end de este rompecabezas
con un front-end similar a las unidades EP1042T

“El equipo encargado del proyecto nos pidió que encontráramos una alternativa digital que fuera más eficiente”, dijo Cachia. ¿Cómo funcionaría un proveedor de señalización basada en la nube con una tecnología básica de ViewSonic ya probada en un concepto de pantalla más grande?

Una vez más, ViewSonic tenía lo que buscaban con la pantalla ViewSonic
EP5540T. La pantalla de 55 pulgadas de la serie EP venía con el mismo reproductor de medios integrado. El equipo de Cachia probó las pantallas ViewSonic EP5540T con el software en la nube de Zignage y trabajó con ambas empresas para desarrollar la solución ideal.

“Trabajaron muy bien juntos y pudimos tener exactamente lo que deseábamos lograr”,
dijo Cachia. “El toque final fue el agregado de marcos Chief Mfg para ofrecer un aspecto más elegante al muro digital de premios”.

Varios meses después de la instalación, el muro de premios sigue funcionando perfectamente. De hecho, la universidad ha estado tan conforme con el desempeño que ha ampliado su uso de los productos ViewSonic, esta vez, para la enseñanza en las aulas.

“Reemplazamos nuestros antiguos Smartboards con nueve pantallas ViewBoard IFP7750-E1 y PC para ranura VPC15-WP-4 de ViewSonic. Se ven mejor y funcionan bien”, dijo Cachia. “Lo más importante es que la elección de tamaños es maravillosa. Cuando especificamos la tecnología, nos gusta ser coherentes. Usar varias marcas distintas no es conveniente para el personal o para los instructores, ya que deben capacitarse y aprender a usar sistemas diferentes”.

Cachia dijo que, con ViewSonic como socio, tiene la posibilidad de elegir entre una amplia gama de opciones de tamaño para satisfacer las necesidades de las distintas aulas. “Debido a que ViewSonic tiene una gama de productos tan maravillosa, es muy sencillo trabajar con ellos”, dijo. “Y también es genial trabajar con sus representantes. Si necesitamos hablar con alguien, es fácil obtener respuestas”.

Cachia dijo que, con estas tres implementaciones, el sistema de alertas de emergencia, el muro de premios y las pantallas interactivas para las aulas, los involucrados estuvieron muy felices con los resultados.

“No tuvimos ningún problema. Todo salió bien y espero continuar trabajando con ViewSonic como proveedor de pantallas. Esto no se termina aquí de ninguna manera. Tenemos muchas más pantallas que comprar”.

ViewSonic Professional Development Team Offers One-on-One Online Support and Advice for Teachers about Distance Learning

The Team Can Assist on Topics Including: Basics of Distance Learning, Tools to Use, and Curriculum Development and Execution

BREA, CA (13 de abril de 2020) – ViewSonic Corp., a leading global provider of visual solutions, announced that it has made its Professional Development (PD) team available to assist teachers with distance learning advice and support. As part of the ViewSonic distance learning initiative during the COVID-19 outbreak, the PD team will offer one-on-one online support for teachers with any learning initiatives they may have, including topics such as: distance learning as a whole, tools for distance learning, curriculum development, as well as video creation or conferencing for lessons.



Teachers and students now face an entirely new way of teaching and learning. New tools are required, both on the hardware and software side, and are necessary to share ideas, communicate, and ensure student learning.

Some teachers may have concerns with distance learning as a concept, even without the “learning” part of it. A lot of what happens in the classroom during the instructional piece is being able to individualize the learning process or break it down so that every student is able to understand it. Going digital doesn’t necessarily allow for that direct integration.

The ViewSonic Professional Development team offers some general guidance:

• Adapt to the new normal: It’s important to set out goals and objectives that can be accomplished. It takes time for both the teacher and student to get comfortable with the new environment and pattern of learning.

• Class time replication: Weekly assignments, and projects are all ways to assess learning.  Think about the amount of time for instruction, classwork and discussions that occur in your traditional class period.  It’s important to not assign busy work that goes beyond that amount of time.

• Teach outside the box: Remote and distance learning is about learning and integrating new ways to educate. Get feedback from parents and students and make the most of the resources that are available online, and in a lot of cases, free.

“Remote and distance learning lessons are definitely different than inside the confines of a classroom,” said Blake Everhart, Solution Training Manager at ViewSonic Americas. “As a former teacher, I understand there’s sometimes a gap between learning the scope and sequence of the technology side that can match up with the lessons you want to teach. The ability to create and complete lessons, and how to filter through the many resources that are out there makes it tough to focus. That’s why my team and I at ViewSonic are making ourselves available to help out, and make things less overwhelming.”

Una actualización sobre COVID-19 por ViewSonic

Dear Valued Customer,

First and foremost, we hope that this letter reaches you in good health.

ViewSonic is focused on the health and well-being of our employees, customers and vendors. We are closely monitoring communication from health officials and government leaders, and we continue to do our part to help stop the spread of coronavirus. While the majority of our workforce is now working remotely, we have also increased the frequency of cleaning and sanitizing our offices and warehouse facilities, put additional contingency plans in place, canceled our travel plans, and continue to monitor this very fluid emergency.



With the spread of COVID-19, many schools and universities are not only preparing for extended school shutdowns, but educators are urgently exploring the possibility of distance learning. ViewSonic is supporting schools, educators, students and parents in this very trying time by offering our myViewBoard software free to students and teachers. Learn more here https://www.viewsonic.com/us/distance-learning-overview and download myViewBoard software here https://myviewboard.com

At this time, our facilities will be functional to ship products to our customers and partners. With that said, we are taking every precaution to meet and exceed social distancing and government recommendations to ensure that our staff is safe.

Our sales and marketing teams continue to support customers by leveraging digital communication instead of in-person visits, trade shows, and events. Our customer support teams are fully functional via remote office technologies, and are ready to help you with any questions and technical requests.

However, given this rapidly evolving situation, there is a possibility that our services become challenged, particularly as state and federal authorities implement new protocols and procedures. We will provide frequent updates on the status of our operations should there be any changes. Please rest assured our web site will be updated frequently.

We truly appreciate your business. We remain committed to providing the support that you have come to expect from us, and we are here to help move your business forward.

Be safe. Be smart. And stay healthy!

Sincerely,

Jeff Volpe, President, ViewSonic Americas
