Commenting on the launch, Mark Dew, head of B2B sales at Vestel, said: “Democratising access to leading-edge technology, Vestel is offering schools and universities with varying budgets equal opportunity to adopt and integrate one of the most progressive interactive screen solutions to date.

Taking interactive technology to the next level, our PCAP display personalises the learning process, boosting developmental progress for everything from writing and problem-solving to more creative art and design skill sets.”

Product features and benefits are as follows:

Enhanced Interactivity for Better Learning Outcomes

Designed with twenty-point capacitive multi-touch, the display ensures enhanced touch accuracy and pen precision, offering a natural and fluid writing experience. Using the display controller to distinguish real from unintended inputs, the IFC significantly improves pressure responsiveness and written accuracy, even allowing users to rest the palms of their hands on the screen as they write.

Unprecedentedly responsive, the display is also a graphic design tool, enabling users to create more detailed and meticulous sketches with lines that can be drawn in a whole range of different thicknesses and colour depths.

High Impact Visibility

Thanks to its anti-glare and scratch-resistant screen and 400 Nit brightness levels, the IFC ensures a higher standard of visibility, offering colour vibrancy and definition in even harshly lit environments.

Designed with a 4k panel, it also displays four times the picture clarity and detail of Full HD displays, animating the on-screen imagery and bringing text clearly into focus. Perfect for use during assemblies and events, the IFC can be connected to other Ultra HD devices through its HDMI inputs.

Boost Net Learning Time

With the Vestel PCAP display, educators can maximise net learning time. Whilst features such as Auto Launch and USB Auto-Play offer quick-start support, the unique USB security feature enables educators to maintain a fast-paced teaching momentum, allowing USB devices and the content on them to be securely locked in place behind the display’s back panel.

In-house Promotional Activity and Fund-raising

Designed for education in practice, the IFC helps educators to overcome the daily commercial and marketing challenges that schools, academies and universities face. Suitable for open days as well as fundraising events, the IFC can double up as a marketing tool, enabling advertising, websites as well as educational applications to be showcased. Equipped with DisplayPort inputs and DisplayPort outputs, the IFC is also suitable for daisy chaining, working well as part of big impact video walls.

Giving educators more confidence when it comes to displaying content, the IFC offers Pixel Shifting technology to prevent the on-screen imagery from sticking. If the signal is ever lost, the signal failover protection kicks in, ensuring that pre-selected alternative imagery displays automatically.

Tablet-like System-on-Chip Technology

Offering a low maintenance and cost-effective out-of-the-box solution, the IFC comes with System-on-Chip technology. This built-in tablet-like functionality enables educators to work online for easy access to content cloud management systems.

When connected to a local area network, educators also have the option of using either LAN or RS-232 control to set a core range of scheduling functionality from any location. Equally useful for ambitious projects, SoC supports Application Programming Interface, allowing schools and universities to develop their own educational applications.

OPS Compatibility with Windows and Android PC Modules

To support a wider variety of teaching methods, the IFC offers OPS compatibility with Windows as well as Android PC modules. An official Microsoft partner, Vestel can offer the IFC with Windows 10 pre-installed.

Windows 10 in Education

Promising to boost learning outcomes, Windows 10 personalises the learning experience with best-in-class digital inking. Students can interact with the display in ways that best suit them, having the option of using voice, stylus pen, touch or gesture control.

With Windows Microsoft education tools, such as Microsoft Whiteboard, there is much greater opportunity to learn through collaboration. As well as enabling students and teachers to save and share their notes, Microsoft Whiteboard ensures that documents can be worked on at the same time. Every individual’s contribution can even be tracked and monitored by educators and mentors.

Connecting young minds, the optional Camera module facilitates collaboration between different classes – even different schools – from all around the world. Working with platforms such as Skype in the Classroom, it supports collaboration across borders, bringing students together from different cultures and academic backgrounds.

Capable of supporting Windows Hello, the solution can also offer exceptional security, effectively making every primary user the pass key thanks to the fingerprint scanner functionality.
