kidpressingbuttons Posted February 9, 2022 Posted February 9, 2022 We are looking at replacement visualisers for our secondary school classrooms. We currently use HUE HD visualiser which work fine but staff would like something with a bigger field of view. Can anyone recommend anything? Happy to use HDMI or USB as we will be replacing our boards soon with Smart Panels so can go straight to HDMI rather than via the PC.
dhicks Posted February 9, 2022 Posted February 9, 2022 Can anyone recommend anything? I think it was this model one of our teachers was looking at: https://www.amazon.co.uk/OKIOLABS-Visualiser-Classroom-Projection-Compatible/dp/B0827V7X6T/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?crid=2UYML28DOMEQW Looks like a wide, adjustable field-of-view, should just work as a webcam with pretty much any computer, under £100 each. 1
Bompalompalomp Posted February 9, 2022 Posted February 9, 2022 We've been recommending the IPEVO V4K cameras and use one in our office when needed. 1
Jawloms Posted February 9, 2022 Posted February 9, 2022 We've been recommending the IPEVO V4K cameras and use one in our office when needed. We have loads of these. Our staff love them! £100 on amazon usually. We've even used them to point at and listen to the class when a teacher is teaching from home. Stuart 1
ITGuyNW Posted February 9, 2022 Posted February 9, 2022 Can also vouch for the IPEVO 4k ones. Never have an issue with em. 1
Garacesh Posted February 9, 2022 Posted February 9, 2022 We've been recommending the IPEVO V4K cameras and use one in our office when needed. Another +1 for IPEVO. We don't use the 4K ones but a few classrooms here have the 1080P(I think?) ones, and my last school had a fair few too. They're plug-and-play so they mount as a regular old camera and you can use your software of choice (though IPEVO's own software is pretty good) We actually mostly have HUE visualisers here, which are also plug-and-play and the quality is decent, but the provided software (HUE Intuition) isn't particularly good, and due to the way the bendy neck goes into the weight(? stand?), they've been known to bend their own USB connector, so I'm not sure I'd recommend them. 1
synaesthesia Posted February 9, 2022 Posted February 9, 2022 Ipevo house here. We had issues with the micro USB ports on the initial batch as they were too weak. I asked Ipevo if they could do anything, then whilst in conversation found they were just out of warranty. Unprompted, they sent me a new model with USB C connector to take apart and see for myself the improvements made (they had reinforced the connector massively) and I have been massively impressed with their support and service as a result. The cameras are excellent quality, good features and double as wonderful quality webcams 1
kidpressingbuttons Posted February 10, 2022 Author Posted February 10, 2022 Thanks all- from looking at the IPEVO ones I think these will be the best option!
