The importance and power of interactivity with Avocor.

The way we work has changed dramatically in the past 10 years and the pandemic has certainly accelerated this transformation, leaving companies feeling disoriented with how to respond to this new work culture.

One thing which has become evident, is that technology now plays a much greater role in our everyday working life.?As we progress toward increasingly hybrid environments with simultaneous remote and in-person participation, we need to rethink our meeting spaces to ensure elements of inclusivity, creativity as well as meeting equity are still met.

Avocor are global leaders in creating collaboration solutions, to stimulate creativity, engagements and teamwork, enabling people to come together easily, in-person or remotely. Thanks to their product solutions, they’re able to create engaging environments and experiences for every sector and market.

They help respond to hybrid work pain points such as poor remote user experience and difficulties sharing content during and after meetings; through their development of purpose-built interactive displays that focus on making the exchange of ideas simple.

Here are some of the key takeaways from Avocor’s recent whitepaper; “Bringing Interactivity to your hybrid meeting space.”

Employee priorities?

When analysing hybrid work environments, specifically meeting spaces, it can be understood that there are 3 main employee priorities, namely consuming, creating and collaborating, the latter being arguably the biggest priority for users when it comes to interactive displays.

Priority 1: Consuming content

When consuming content through interactive displays, we primarily refer to video consumption through a grid view approach using video platforms like Teams, Zoom or Meet.?There are various displays which would be ideal for a room in which the priority is to consume content, whilst still being able to make simple annotations. The Avocor E Series perfectly fits this criteria.?

Users can easily switch between using a pen, finger, and palm in real-time with Avocor’s UIQ touch enabled interface. The display is available as 55", 65", 75" and 86", which means that organisations can choose the size(s) best suited for their needs.

The display’s also use the very latest optimised touch technology and superior InGlass technology, which provides smooth and extremely accurate low latency writing as well as object recognition.

Priority 2: Create

In meeting spaces where content creation is more of a priority, displays need to have more intricate collaboration features to allow for more advanced real-time modifications.?

The size of the meeting space and number of in-person users will dictate which size collaboration display your organisation may want to deploy, to make sure simultaneous contribution still works seamlessly with your ideal set-up.Choosing the right technology here is crucial for creators such as engineers, scientists or architects as accuracy and system performance is of high importance.?

The Avocor G series is a spectacularly sleek, 4" thin edge-to-edge bezel-less display with built-in sensors for power saving, engineered to impress when it’s on, and when it’s off. Little to no training is required to use the display, and with its pen on paper feel, it is the simplest, yet precise, whiteboard for inking and annotation.?

The display uses USB type-C to connect to 4K video, audio, USB touch, Ethernet and power. All of this is possible just through one cable, ensuring that your day-to-day meetings run smoothly.

Priority 3: Collaborate

Collaboration is probably the biggest asset when considering the purpose of interactive displays, and 68% of people state it is their meeting priority with studies proving that interactivity and collaboration has a direct improvement on productivity.?

Not only do organisations use video features in video platforms like Teams and Zoom, but they also use the tools within them to collaborate online and in-person to achieve a more productive outcome. For organisations whose main meeting priorities are collaboration, all features of interactive displays need to be carefully considered, making Avocor’s W-series the perfect match.?

The W-series is an advanced all-in-one solution, whilst remaining easy to use through its out-of-the-box set-up, Type-C cable solution and front of display controls for easy access. The W-series displays are available in two sizes, 65” and 55”, both offering an integrated, high-quality conference camera with a microphone array and audio optimised for use with UC platforms, including Microsoft Teams, RingCentral, and Zoom, making the Avocor W series the ideal platform to create the perfect video collaboration environment and increasing productivity.
