Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin – (January 8, 2010) – RoomPro
Technologies has released RoomPro ONE, a fully integrated, all-in-one
classroom control and microphone system that enables K-12 educators to
provide an enhanced audio and video experience to improve student
learning.
RoomPro ONE is equipped with a built-in infrared (IR) microphone system that offers
optimized voice enhancement and 360° sound reinforcement for full-classroom auditory
learning. It also includes a wall panel for simple, one-touch control and notably
features a Virtual Control Panel, RoomPro’s proprietary control panel emulation
software that allows teachers to operate the system using multiple instructional
technologies.
Dean Olds, president of RoomPro Technologies, says the system’s patented design
offers educators several advantages.
“RoomPro ONE solves the problem of uneven classroom sound distribution and as a
result the related problem of uneven learning experiences from student to student.
And, with the addition of our Virtual Control Panel, we have found a way to provide
educators with more convenient system control and access. Teachers can now quickly
and easily operate the system at the touch of a button, whether they are working
from a laptop, a wireless tablet or an interactive whiteboard,” Olds says.
Olds adds that the system’s powerful multimedia management and control seamlessly
integrates devices educators need while eliminating devices they don’t—such as
remotes, which can be cumbersome to use and are easily misplaced.
According to Olds, another critical advantage for educators is that the system is
priced with tight school budgets in mind. “Our system is well-positioned to help
schools create the classroom of tomorrow within the budget limitations of today. It
essentially can be purchased for what you would expect to pay for a classroom
microphone system alone,” he says.
Olds says that RoomPro ONE has also been well received by school technology
specialists because it is engineered for quick installation. “RoomPro ONE includes a
one-of-a-kind, all-metal ceiling enclosure that attaches cleanly to the ceiling and
integrates four hi-fidelity speakers, audio amplifier, A/V switcher and projector
mount—all in one,” he says. “And since our system is designed to be installed in
under an hour, the investment in time and resources is also significantly reduced
for schools,” adds Olds.
In addition, RoomPro ONE comes with full audio support and includes multiple audio
inputs and an audio output to record lessons and create podcasts to share with
others.
RoomPro ONE also includes a full complement of voice amplification options, starting
with an IR pendant-style microphone that features an audio input jack for seamless
connection to an iPod® or MP3 player or a separate plug-in headset teachers can wear
comfortably around their necks if they prefer.
