Our Observations and opinions

There is a lot of information display technology out there. Over the past 2 - 3 years the AV industry, especially visual technology, has changed and in some ways streamlined. Where in 2020 there were lamp, standard lampless and laser, with standard lamp projectors being dominant, in 2022 the laser projector has taken over the mantle of dominant new projector type, with Epson remaining the preferred manufacturer. In 2020 many if not most Interactive Flat Panel installations were of 55" - 70", in 2022 the majority of installations are 75" - 86", with even some 98" models out there.

On the projector front, Epson has improved their touch interactive Ultra Short Throw with the introduction of a new Finger Touch Module which is easier to setup, more accurate and takes up less space at the top of the image than the previous unit. They also introduced the 1485Fi and it's Ultra Wide image. The 1485Fi and it's touch unit are capable of projecting and providing full touch function with a maximum image size of 119" wide by 57" high or 132" diagonal.

On the IFP front there are many different manufacturers fighting to get their panels in to classrooms and other locations. Clear Touch is a company that provides top quality panels and good value. Their panels might not be the cheapest out there, but with IFP's, the saying "You get what you pay for" is definitely the case. We have had numerous IFP manufacturers have approached us over the years trying to make the case for us to sell their panels. We passed on all of them. If we don't have 100% confidence in a product, we won't sell it. As with Epson on the projector side, we have full confidence in Clear Touch panels.

So whether it be an Epson Projector, or a Clear Touch panel, you can be confident you are getting a AV system you can rely on for many years to come.
