ISE 2011 sees the global launch of Chief's latest innovation: the line of mounts for short throw projectors. Using Luidia's eBeam technology, these uprights create a fully featured, interactive unit that allows users to comment, save and share projected elements on a virtual whiteboard.

"This is an excellent product for classrooms and corporate environments as it eliminates the need for special interactive whiteboards. Any projectable surface can become interactive thanks to this product," commented Derek Derks, Chief Product Manager.

Using the lightweight interactive pen, endowed with extraordinary precision, teachers and presenters can dynamically interact with any projected content, including PowerPoint presentations, Web pages,… Access to a complete library of web resources is available to assist in the planning, preparation and development of content.

To facilitate installation, numerous facilities are provided such as height and position micro-adjustments (a pioneering technology in the industry), an integrated telescopic extension of up to 1.67 meters that allows for great image alignment precision, lateral displacement capabilities and integrated cable management.

This Chief Interactive product will be compatible with standard projectors and Windows and Mac computers. eBeam technology, in addition to being integrated into Chief's new line of short throw projector mounts, can be fitted to existing Chief installations using an interactive anchor accessory.

Videowalls

For spectacular video wall setups, Chief has the Fusion series. This series of specific supports for video walls allows each support to be extended up to 178mm for easy wiring access and maintenance, even on central monitors. They also require a minimum separation between the monitors with perfect alignment regardless of the flatness of walls and supports. An audible “click” also ensures that the screen is securely anchored and a padlock can be added for greater security.
