How a Pennsylvania School District Streamlined Campus Communications with ViewSonic

“Teachers got intuitive tools for lesson delivery, while administrators secured a direct channel for campus announcements. Standardizing on one platform made planning, deployment and training easier for IT.”

CHALLENGE

A leading K-12 school district in Pennsylvania wanted to modernize its displays across classrooms and shared spaces. The team needed hardware that could support hands-on learning while providing a reliable network for visual messages across every school.

Existing tech varied by building, was getting unreliable and cost too much to maintain.

That gave the district a chance to standardize on one platform and equip teachers with tools built for active student participation.

At the same time, administrators wanted to boost daily announcements and safety messages in common areas to keep students, staff and visitors connected without breaking the budget.

The district needed a scalable ecosystem that was easy to roll out, manage and support. That led to its partnership with ViewSonic.

What ViewSonic Solutions Did the District Deploy?

The district chose ViewSonic for its broad lineup and consistent user experience across every room. The district’s reseller handled procurement while an installation partner managed the physical deployment across multiple schools.

The district deployed:

• 489 ViewBoard^® interactive displays for classrooms, including 19 IFP6551 (65”), 455 IFP7551 (75”) and 15 IFP8651 (86”) units.
• 31 CDE commercial displays for common areas, including 5 CDE5531 (55”), 18 CDE6531 (65”) and 8 CDE7531 (75”) units.
• 450 ViewSonic Manager^® Advanced 7-year software licenses for central fleet management.
• One day of onsite ViewSonic Professional Development training to prepare staff for a smooth rollout.

In classrooms, the ViewBoard IFP51 series of interactive displays gives teachers multi-touch recognition, digital annotation and easy content sharing. The IFP51 series of interactive displays is Android EDLA-certified with EPEAT Silver and ENERGY STAR 8.0 ratings, backed by a 3-year limited on-site warranty.

The district made the 75” IFP7551 its standard setup with 455 units, adding 65” and 86” models for specific room layouts.

In shared spaces, the CDE series of commercial displays handles digital signage, daily announcements and event notices in busy hallways. Each display in the CDE series runs 4K UHD visuals at 500-nit brightness and is rated for 24/7 continuous operation.

Because both interactive and commercial displays share one ecosystem, IT handles all hardware through the exact same workflow.

How Does the District Manage Displays Across Multiple Schools?

ViewSonic Manager Advanced software gives the IT department a single dashboard to run the entire fleet. From central offices, technicians can broadcast content instantly, push firmware updates without walking into classrooms and schedule screens to turn off when buildings are empty, cutting energy bills.

ViewSonic’s displays tie directly into emergency alert systems, so critical messages reach classrooms and hallways immediately. That turns everyday communication tools into a core part of district security.

What Results Has the District Seen?

Standardized 520 displays across multiple schools, putting 489 ViewBoard interactive displays in classrooms and 31 CDE commercial displays in common areas.

• Improved classroom interaction with responsive touch tech that supports group learning.
• Built a unified digital communication network using CDE commercial displays in high-traffic spots.
• Simplified deployment, staff training and tech support by using one ecosystem everywhere.
• Lowered operating expenses and boosted campus safety with remote management, automated power schedules and instant emergency alerts.

Teachers got intuitive tools for lesson delivery, while administrators secured a direct channel for campus announcements. Standardizing on one platform made planning, deployment and training easier for IT.

How a Commuter Rail Agency Captures More Rider Attention with ViewSonic Direct View LED Displays

“The agency can switch out creative in seconds and run multiple ads in rotation, maximizing the revenue potential of station walls. Advertisers gain higher visibility, while the agency eliminates paper waste and manual labor.”

CHALLENGE

A major U.S. commuter rail agency needed a better way to display advertising across its stations. Station walls are filled with ads meant to grab the attention of daily commuters, but the messaging needed to be big and bold to work.

The agency’s previous setup fell short. Printed wall posters, no matter how well designed, weren’t catching riders’ eyes. They needed signage captivating enough to hold attention in a busy station.

The solution was a bigger, brighter, dynamic display. The agency set its sights on a large-format Direct View LED (dvLED) video wall that could turn static ad spots into high-impact visual experiences.

What ViewSonic Solution Did They Choose?

• 3 ViewSonic^® 136” LDM136-151C All-in-One Direct View LED displays

Partnering with CDW, the agency chose three ViewSonic LDM136-151C displays.

Because each 136-inch All-in-One display ships under a single part number, everything needed for setup arrived in one package. That made specifying, buying and installing straightforward. ViewSonic won out over alternative options by offering the right balance of size, brightness and overall value.

ViewSonic’s dvLED technology was ideal for the busy station environment. A seamless Full HD picture with 600 nits of brightness and a 10,000:1 contrast ratio keeps ads crisp under harsh lighting. For durability, Chip-on-Board (COB) technology brings IP54 dust resistance and IK08 impact protection to heavy foot-traffic areas.

Maintenance stays simple as well, thanks to front-serviceable LED modules and a control bar that detaches to mount up to 30 feet away.

Why is a Direct View LED Display a Strong Fit for Station Advertising?

Paper posters lock stations into fixed messages that demand time-consuming reprints to update.

A 136” dvLED display transforms that same wall space into a bright, dynamic visual footprint. The agency can switch out creative in seconds and run multiple ads in rotation, maximizing the revenue potential of station walls. Advertisers gain higher visibility, while the agency eliminates paper waste and manual labor.

What Outcomes Does the Agency Expect?

• A bigger, bolder ad display that captures rider attention where static posters failed to generate traction.
• More impactful placements for advertisers shifting from printed posters to large, bright LED displays.
• A durable, low-maintenance solution built for busy public stations, featuring IP54 dust and moisture resistance, IK08 impact protection, front- serviceable modules and 100,000-hour rated LEDs.

SOLUTION BRIEF

How a School District in Oregon Standardized 600+ Classroom and Campus Displays on a Single ViewSonic Platform

“ViewSonic won on display size, functionality, product lineup breadth across interactive and commercial displays and centralized management.”

CHALLENGE

An Oregon school district secured voter-approved bond funding to replace its aging classroom displays. Many rooms relied on legacy projectors with frustrating wiring, while other spaces used a mix of piecemeal visual tools.

Teachers couldn’t count on a consistent experience from room to room, which created extra work for IT staff. Managing the old hardware wasn’t efficient either, since technicians had to stand directly in front of each display to push basic updates.

The district needed a unified strategy to standardize hardware across classrooms, offices and common spaces. Leaders wanted a partner that could support clear digital signage in hallways and cafeterias while offering centralized remote management for hundreds of endpoints.

What ViewSonic Solution Did the District Deploy?

The district deployed:

• 461 ViewBoard^® IFP8651 (86”) and 46 IFP6551 (65”) interactive displays.
• 7 CDE8631 (86”), 71 CDE7531 (75”) and 39 CDE5531 (55”) commercial displays for signage.
• ViewSonic Manager Advanced™ software 5-year licenses (MVBM_ADV_5Y01) for centralized management of touch and non-touch displays.

The rollout standardizes nearly every classroom on 86” ViewBoard IFP8651 interactive displays, using 65” IFP6551 units in specialty spaces. Offices and staff areas were upgraded from an originally planned 65” to 86” as well.

ViewSonic commercial displays are going into hallways, select offices and cafeterias for digital signage, replacing a mix of legacy brands and static USB setups.

The district manages the whole setup through ViewSonic Manager Advanced software, which pushes firmware updates and digital content across interactive and commercial displays from a secure, cloud-based dashboard.

Why Did the District Choose ViewSonic Over Other Display Brands?

The district ran a head-to-head comparison between ViewSonic and other display brands. ViewSonic won on display size, functionality, product lineup breadth across interactive and commercial displays and centralized management.

Using ViewSonic’s Manager Advanced software to manage touch and non-touch hardware means IT staff no longer have to walk up to individual displays just to update firmware.

What Results Has the District Seen?

• Replaced outdated projectors and troublesome wiring with a standardized, streamlined display environment across the district.
• Consolidated four to five legacy display brands into a single, uniform ViewSonic platform across classrooms and common areas.
• Standardized on one management platform, Manager Advanced software, for both interactive and commercial displays.

Installation is underway across all schools in the district, and early feedback from the technology team has been positive.

Consolidating multiple aging setups onto a single ViewSonic platform simplifies day-to-day management for IT while giving teachers and students a consistent experience everywhere on campus.

SOLUTION BRIEF

How a South Carolina District Swapped Discontinued Displays for ViewSonic ViewBoard Interactive Displays

“The myViewBoard^® ecosystem changed how educators teach. Instead of being left idle, digital whiteboarding tools and the ability to import lesson plans meant that ViewSonic displays saw daily usage during lessons.”

CHALLENGE

This South Carolina district invested in roughly 500 interactive displays from a previous vendor in 2021 and 2022, expecting them to last five years under warranty. Instead, the hardware started failing rapidly in year three.

To make matters worse, the vendor exited the interactive display market entirely, leaving the technology director with no official path for repairs or replacements.

IT admins had to convince the school board to reinvest in a dependable district-wide replacement much sooner than planned.

The district turned to its integration partner, which recommended the ViewSonic^® ViewBoard^® IFP50 and IFP51 series of interactive displays as the most cost-effective and reliable answer.

The IFP50 and IFP51 series both feature a stunning 4K touchscreen and access to ViewSonic’s award-winning myViewBoard software. The IFP51 series goes a step further with Android™ EDLA certification, unlocking verified Play Store access and a wider range of Google Mobile Services-compatible apps for teachers to bring into the classroom.

Because the district was reinvesting early, the evaluation focused on two requirements: the new setup had to be budget-friendly, and it had to last.

Several neighboring districts were already using ViewSonic solutions through the same partner. After a trial run and on-site demos, the district decided to move forward with ViewSonic

What ViewSonic Solution Did the District Deploy?

The district’s integration partner had a strong track record of placing ViewSonic hardware across South Carolina, making it a natural choice to replace the failing displays.

Success stories from nearby schools helped reassure the board during the evaluation process.

The district deployed a complete hardware and software package:

• 445 75” ViewBoard^® IFP50 4K interactive displays, including 210 IFP7550 models and 235 IFP7551 models.
• ViewSonic Manager Advanced™ software with a 7-year license, one per display.
• A 7-year ViewSonic^® extended limited warranty that protects the entire investment.

The rollout spanned two generations of ViewSonic’s ViewBoard interactive displays. The district began in 2025 with the IFP7550. When that model reached end-of-life the following year, the district moved to its successor, the IFP7551, for the remaining displays.

ViewSonic honored the original pricing on its newer models, so the district was able to finish its rollout without going over budget.

Why Did the District Choose ViewSonic Over the Incumbent Platform?

Price and reliability drove the decision, but the 7-year warranty sealed the deal. After watching its previous fleet break down early with zero manufacturer support, the district wanted a partner that would stand behind its hardware.

That warranty proved reliability as much as it offered peace of mind.

Software made a big difference too. Teachers found the old displays clunky, often using them as nothing more than glorified projectors. The myViewBoard® ecosystem changed how educators teach. Instead of being left idle, digital whiteboarding tools and the ability to import lesson plans meant that ViewSonic displays saw daily usage during lessons.

What Results Has the District Seen?

• 445 ViewBoard displays were deployed to replace the failing incumbent fleet, starting with 210 IFP7550 units in June 2025 followed by 235 IFP7551 units.
• The district secured a reliable, feature-rich platform backed by a 7-year limited warranty.
• IT administrators gained fleet-wide remote control using Manager Advanced, solving the management gaps they had with previous displays.
• Classroom adoption jumped as teachers stopped using screens as basic projectors and started using the myViewBoard whiteboard and Google Drive lesson imports daily.

ViewSonic proved more reliable, affordable and feature-rich than the platform it replaced. The district plans to keep using year-end funds to finish outfitting roughly 850 classrooms as budget permits.

The 86” ViewBoard IFP8641 anchored each room, VPC13-C33-G1 Chromebox OPS devices matched the district’s Google setup while NFC card readers gave teachers a fast, secure way to sign in at the display. VB-BLM-002 BalanceBox mounts allowed staff to set displays at the right height for every classroom.

The IFP8641 fit the district’s requirements on its own specs: an 86” 4K display with Android EDLA certification, built-in Google security, native access to Google and Microsoft ecosystems, EPEAT Silver and ENERGY STAR 8.0 ratings and a 3-year limited on-site warranty.

ViewSonic Manager Advanced software tied the whole setup together, giving IT central monitoring across every building. Before finalizing the deal, ViewSonic worked directly with the district to validate NFC functionality, resolving its primary security concern.

ViewSonic and its reseller partner coordinated a multi-location delivery plan to ensure all 451 displays and accessories arrived before the district’s fiscal yearend deadline.

Why Did the District Choose ViewSonic?

The district needed one manufacturer that could supply interactive displays, Chrome computing, secure authentication and central management as a complete package, delivered at scale on a tight deadline.

ViewSonic covered every requirement, and validating NFC authentication up front proved the solution met the district’s strict security standards.

ViewSonic’s reseller partner coordinated pricing, ordering and multi-location logistics, letting the district run a large, time-sensitive rollout through a single reseller relationship.

What Results Has the District Seen?

• Deployed 451 interactive displays across the district on time to hit a strict fiscal year-end deadline.
• Enabled secure sign-on at the display using NFC card readers, validated before purchase to meet security requirements.
• Integrated Chrome OS computing into classrooms using Chromebox OPS devices.
• Centralized fleet management through Manager Advanced software so IT supports every location from one platform.
• Established a proven standard ready to expand across thousands of additional classrooms in future phases.

How a Pennsylvania School District Streamlined Campus Communications with ViewSonic

“By matching display technology to what each room actually needed, the integration partner and ViewSonic helped the school modernize its learning environments with a consistent, future-ready tech setup that balances performance, usability and overall value.”

CHALLENGE

Edtech funding is getting tighter, so higher education institutions have to carefully evaluate which solutions deliver the best value.

Across this 16-campus system serving 70,000+ students, many classrooms relied on technology that was over a decade old. Modernizing these spaces wasn’t optional if the institution wanted to support student recruitment, retention and engagement in a competitive landscape.

The institution needed a partner with a broad portfolio spanning interactive touch displays, commercial displays, Direct View LED video walls, monitors and projectors.

That way, it could match the right technology to each environment rather than force one solution everywhere.

As the system renovated and expanded its classrooms and event spaces, ViewSonic became a preferred partner for its reliable hardware and collaboration tools.

What ViewSonic Solution Did the Institution Deploy?

The institution’s integration partner worked with ViewSonic to build a standardized, scalable display strategy matched to each learning environment

• 169 ViewBoard^® interactive displays went into traditional instructional classrooms, giving faculty an intuitive platform for annotation, wireless content sharing and interactive lessons.
• 6 ViewSonic^® commercial displays were installed in lecture halls, auditoriums and assembly spaces to provide commercial-grade performance, integrate with third-party AV control platforms and run reliably in high-use environments.
• 2 ViewSonic Direct View LED (dvLED) video walls were placed in spaces for maximum visual impact, delivering seamless, high-brightness images for large audiences.
• 100 ViewSonic LCD monitors, 18 projectors and 5 ePoster displays were placed in across offices, labs, podiums and campus common spaces.
• ViewSonic Manager Advanced software provided centralized, multi-campus device management.

By matching display technology to what each room actually needed, the integration partner and ViewSonic helped the school modernize its learning environments with a consistent, future-ready tech setup that balances performance, usability and overall value.

How Does the Institution Manage Displays Across 16 Campuses?

To get the most out of its investment, the institution uses ViewSonic Manager Advanced software to monitor and manage compatible devices across all campuses from one central dashboard. IT admins don’t have to travel to individual classrooms to deploy firmware updates, configure device settings, troubleshoot issues or schedule power on and off times.

Centralized management cuts operational costs, reduces classroom downtime and can extend device lifespan through proactive maintenance. This type of device management can also improve energy efficiency by making sure displays aren’t running when they’re not needed.

What Results Has the Institution Seen?

• The institution replaced decade-old classroom tech with a standardized visual platform of 370 ViewSonic devices across 16 campuses, including 169 interactive displays, 76 commercial displays, 100 monitors, 18 projectors, 5 ePosters and 2 Direct View LED displays.

How California Correctional Facilities Are Modernizing Inmate Education and Behavioral Health with ViewSonic ViewBoard Displays

SCHOOL

Universidad Anáhuac Mayab, located in Mérida, Yucatán, in southeastern Mexico, is a private higher education institution with nearly 8,000 students from 27 countries. It is widely recognized for its academic excellence and forward-thinking educational approach, which is based on flexible programs and comprehensive learning environments that prepare highly qualified professionals.

Anáhuac is currently ranked among the top 2% of universities worldwide and among the top three private universities in Mexico. It is also one of the three universities with the highest graduate employability rates in the country. The university offers 30 undergraduate programs in a variety of fields. Among them is the Multimedia Design degree program, which contributes to the video game, animation, audiovisual production and digital design industries. These fields have experienced exponential growth in popularity and demand, becoming some of the most important multibillion-dollar sectors in the world.

Multimedia designers play a key role in developing and sustaining these industries by creating innovative, trend-driven digital design solutions. They are experts in managing and marketing digital projects, using specialized software for image, audio, and video editing, as well as 2D and 3D modeling and animation, digital publishing and application development.

CHALLENGE

California correctional facilities needed to replace wall-mounted dry erase boards that created security concerns and limited instructional workspace in training rooms and psychiatric units.

Classrooms, meeting rooms and clinical spaces inside a correctional environment support mission-critical work under strict safety and operational requirements. Staff running inmate programs needed an engaging way to deliver vocational training and academic diploma coursework. Psychiatric units needed a more effective method for reviewing patient progress, treatment plans and care coordination.

Before the deployment, many rooms relied on dry erase boards attached to the wall. Those boards offered limited writing space, required manual erasing and rewriting, and could not display digital content, training materials, schedules or care information. In secured environments, wall-mounted boards and loose accessories also introduced avoidable security concerns.

The replacement solution had to meet several requirements at once:

• Support interactive instruction and digital content sharing
• Support collaborative review sessions without adding complexity for instructors, program staff or clinical teams
• Provide enough workspace for group-based learning and multidisciplinary care discussions
• Reduce the wall-mounted boards and loose accessories that require oversight in a secured room

Why Did ViewSonic ViewBoard Displays Fit These Environments?

A 75-inch interactive panel changes what a secured room can support. The ViewSonic^® ViewBoard^® IFP7541 gives instructors, program facilitators and care teams a large shared canvas for presenting content, annotating information and guiding group discussions, with more room to work than a traditional dry erase board.

Multi-touch functionality makes training sessions more participatory. myViewBoard software adds the digital whiteboarding tools staff use to prepare, present, annotate and save instructional or meeting content.

The VPC35 slot-in PC addresses the room itself. It adds a full Windows computing experience directly to compatible ViewBoard displays, which reduces the need for separate external computers or loose cabling in shared spaces.

What ViewSonic Solution Did They Deploy?

The facilities deployed ViewBoard IFP7541 interactive flat panels to create digital teaching and collaboration spaces serving both instructional and clinical workflows:

• ViewSonic ViewBoard IFP7541: a 75-inch 4K UHD interactive flat panel display with multi-touch capability, used as the primary interactive teaching and collaboration surface in classrooms and psychiatric units
• ViewSonic VPC35 slot-in PC: an OPS-compatible slot-in PC that adds an integrated Windows computing experience to the ViewBoard display, reducing external computers and loose cabling in shared rooms
• myViewBoard: ViewSonic’s digital whiteboarding software for preparing, presenting, annotating and saving lessons, meeting notes and care-coordination content

What Does the Deployment Look Like?

Each room pairs one IFP7541 with a VPC35 slot-in PC, so the computing sits inside the display rather than alongside it. That supports cleaner room setups and reduces the external computers and loose cabling that require oversight in a secured space.

The same configuration serves both program areas. In education spaces it supports vocational lessons, academic diploma coursework, diagrams, step-by-step demonstrations and interactive review. In psychiatric units it supports patient progress reviews, treatment planning discussions and structured care coordination meetings.

What Results Have the Facilities Seen?

• Reduced reliance on fixed dry erase boards in secured rooms, helping address security concerns tied to traditional wall-mounted writing surfaces
• Expanded usable instructional workspace from a static board to a 75-inch interactive 4K digital canvas
• Enabled inmate training programs to present, annotate and revisit vocational and academic diploma materials more efficiently
• Gave psychiatric units a shared digital workspace for reviewing patient progress, care plans and team notes during care coordination sessions
• Supported cleaner room setups by pairing each interactive display with an integrated slot-in PC rather than a separate external computer

Replacing fixed dry erase boards gave the facilities a more flexible platform for training and care management. Instructors present digital course content, annotate directly on screen and work in a larger visual space to support vocational instruction and academic diploma completion.

In psychiatric units, multidisciplinary teams centralize patient progress discussions on a shared display, which makes it easier to review information together and align on next steps during care meetings. The deployment answers the original operational requirement: a safer alternative to wall-mounted dry erase boards that could also improve learning and care coordination.

“The upgrade solved daily reliability issues while expanding how the facility operates. Choosing a mobile dvLED screen gave every room in the event center access to high-impact visual capabilities.”

— Zeus Borges, Coordinator of the Multimedia Design Program

SOLUTION

This year, students in the eighth semester of the Multimedia Design program were responsible for creating the projection mapping animation, which was displayed on square structures using 360° imagery.

ViewSonic equipped the festival with four LS740HD projectors, which deliver 5,000 ANSI lumens and feature lamp-free, third-generation laser phosphor technology to ensure bright and vivid images. They can also project Full HD 1080p images at sizes of up to 300 inches. The LS740HD features 1.3X optical zoom, horizontal and vertical keystone correction, four-corner adjustment, 360° projection and portrait mode, making it the ideal solution for the show developed by the students.

Professor Zeus Borges, Coordinator of the Multimedia Design Program and organizer of the festival, explained: “Through this event, we aim to become a connection hub for the southeastern region. At present, Mexico does not have an initiative that supports animation or audiovisual production for states such as Chiapas, Tabasco, Veracruz, Campeche, Quintana Roo, and, especially, Yucatán. We want to become a meeting point for southeastern Mexico and Central America.”

“We have a large student population from El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala, Nicaragua, and even Colombia who come to study here in Mérida. Festival PRISMA gives them the opportunity to meet entrepreneurs and leaders from the audiovisual industry, allowing them to interact with these professionals and expand their knowledge. We want Mérida to become that meeting point, a place that creates employment opportunities and serves as a production hub. This year, we welcomed guests guests from Spain and from California, USA,” he added.

Thanks to the LS740HD’s ability to be positioned vertically at virtually any angle, the students were able to develop creative applications with additional support from specialized software.

“There is excellent compatibility between the projectors and the computers. We did not experience any connection or interaction issues. Implementing the ViewSonic projectors was extremely straightforward,” Professor Borges added. “We are currently evaluating new projects involving the façades and buildings around the university. We want to make the most of everything we can achieve in terms of visualization. Now that the projectors are part of our technology toolkit, we have thousands of ideas that we can begin bringing to life.”

“Our students rely on tech-based tools for their projects. Understanding how the equipment works and learning about its features helps them tremendously when they enter the workforce. They already have practical knowledge that gives them useful experience and a professional edge that is invaluable to their development,” the professor explained.

RESULTS

According to Professor Borges, having the equipment available on campus will allow the university to experiment with new projection mapping trends, such as linking multiple projectors and exploring new ideas that enable professors and students to further expand their creativity.

Equipment with capabilities such as those offered by the LS740HD projectors enhances the students’ development and opens the door to more innovative creations that may one day be enjoyed in films, video games, or digital animations displayed on mobile phones or other visual devices.

Technology is one of the most important tools in the multimedia design field, and students must continually prepare to understand how to use it and make the most of its capabilities. This highlights the importance of providing them with high-quality, forward-thinking visual solutions such as those offered by ViewSonic.

They are experts in managing and marketing digital projects, using specialized software for image, audio, and video editing, as well as 2D and 3D modeling and animation, digital publishing and application development.

CHALLENGE

For nearly a decade, one of the university’s primary event centers relied on a single projector and a 120” screen. That setup served internal faculty meetings, educator workshops and external community rentals, but the aging hardware couldn’t keep up with daily demands.

When the projector repeatedly shut down mid-event, leadership decided to make a permanent change. The AV team evaluated replacing the unit with another projector or upgrading to a portable Direct View LED (dvLED) display that offered superior brightness and flexible room positioning.

Financial considerations helped decide the final strategy. Instead of buying individual fixed displays for every room, the university prioritized a single versatile system that could be used across multiple spaces.

What ViewSonic Solution Did They Deploy?

• 1 ViewSonic^® 138” LDS138-151 All-in-One foldable and mobile Direct View LED display

Working with integration partner FORTE Chicago, the university selected the ViewSonic LDS138-151 All-in-One foldable and mobile Direct View LED display. ViewSonic won the project due to its specialized mobile dvLED design, competitive pricing and responsive support.

The LDS138-151 features a 138” screen mounted on a motorized height-adjustable stand that folds down into a custom flight case. Staff don’t have to keep the screen locked in one location. Instead, they move it wherever it’s needed on 360° wheels.

The 138” display delivers bright, clear visuals at 600 nits of brightness, which wasn’t possible with the old 120” projector. To handle high usage in a variety of locations, Glue-on-Board surface protection gives the panel IP54 dust and water resistance along with IK06 impact ratings against accidental bumps.

What Results Has the University Seen?

• A 138” All-in-One foldable and mobile dvLED display delivered sharper, brighter visuals than what the university’s previous projector could produce.
• Eliminated extra hardware costs by sharing one mobile screen across multiple rooms.
• Created a rentable space that generates new revenue from local community groups.

The upgrade solved daily reliability issues while expanding how the facility operates. Choosing a mobile dvLED screen gave every room in the event center access to high-impact visual capabilities.

The LDS138-151 helped turn the facility into an attractive option for community bookings. Local organizations now regularly rent the venue, creating a steady revenue stream to support the university’s own campus events.

SOLUTION

This year, students in the eighth semester of the Multimedia Design program were responsible for creating the projection mapping animation, which was displayed on square structures using 360° imagery.

ViewSonic equipped the festival with four LS740HD projectors, which deliver 5,000 ANSI lumens and feature lamp-free, third-generation laser phosphor technology to ensure bright and vivid images. They can also project Full HD 1080p images at sizes of up to 300 inches. The LS740HD features 1.3X optical zoom, horizontal and vertical keystone correction, four-corner adjustment, 360° projection and portrait mode, making it the ideal solution for the show developed by the students.

Professor Zeus Borges, Coordinator of the Multimedia Design Program and organizer of the festival, explained: “Through this event, we aim to become a connection hub for the southeastern region. At present, Mexico does not have an initiative that supports animation or audiovisual production for states such as Chiapas, Tabasco, Veracruz, Campeche, Quintana Roo, and, especially, Yucatán. We want to become a meeting point for southeastern Mexico and Central America.”

“We have a large student population from El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala, Nicaragua, and even Colombia who come to study here in Mérida. Festival PRISMA gives them the opportunity to meet entrepreneurs and leaders from the audiovisual industry, allowing them to interact with these professionals and expand their knowledge. We want Mérida to become that meeting point, a place that creates employment opportunities and serves as a production hub. This year, we welcomed guests guests from Spain and from California, USA,” he added.

Thanks to the LS740HD’s ability to be positioned vertically at virtually any angle, the students were able to develop creative applications with additional support from specialized software.

“There is excellent compatibility between the projectors and the computers. We did not experience any connection or interaction issues. Implementing the ViewSonic projectors was extremely straightforward,” Professor Borges added. “We are currently evaluating new projects involving the façades and buildings around the university. We want to make the most of everything we can achieve in terms of visualization. Now that the projectors are part of our technology toolkit, we have thousands of ideas that we can begin bringing to life.”

“Our students rely on tech-based tools for their projects. Understanding how the equipment works and learning about its features helps them tremendously when they enter the workforce. They already have practical knowledge that gives them useful experience and a professional edge that is invaluable to their development,” the professor explained.

RESULTS

According to Professor Borges, having the equipment available on campus will allow the university to experiment with new projection mapping trends, such as linking multiple projectors and exploring new ideas that enable professors and students to further expand their creativity.

Equipment with capabilities such as those offered by the LS740HD projectors enhances the students’ development and opens the door to more innovative creations that may one day be enjoyed in films, video games, or digital animations displayed on mobile phones or other visual devices.

Technology is one of the most important tools in the multimedia design field, and students must continually prepare to understand how to use it and make the most of its capabilities. This highlights the importance of providing them with high-quality, forward-thinking visual solutions such as those offered by ViewSonic.
