Does your business need a video system as part of your integrated audiovisual conferencing solution? Or to display high quality digital signage to guests in your building?
Either way, many organizations now incorporate video in their everyday activities.
Video conferencing streamlines business processes and productivity by improving collaboration and connectivity with colleagues, clients, business partners, and so on. Digital signage gives your company a polished appearance, impressing potential customers or clients.
Video systems have become accessible to all types of businesses, from small to enterprise-level. Once you have decided a video system will benefit your business, one of the things you need to decide is which type of video system is best for your needs.
3 Types of Video Systems Ideal for Business Applications
Projection Systems: Projection video systems consist of a projector, projection screen, projector lifts, and mounting hardware. They are great for use in meeting rooms and board rooms.
Display Systems: Video display systems consist of an LCD display and mounting hardware. This type of video system is versatile, and could be used in board rooms or smaller offices. It can also be used to display advertising or information anywhere in your building.
Video Wall Systems: Video wall systems consist of multiple LCD displays or rear projection displays, a graphics engine, and mounting hardware. They take up more space than the above options, and are ideal for control rooms, some board rooms, or large advertising signage.
