Mimio unveils new interactive projector for classrooms

Interactive teaching technology developer Mimio has added an interactive projector to its MimioClassroom suite, the MimioProjector, allowing teachers to display graphical multimedia lessons on any flat surface.

Meow has announced the latest addition to its MimioClassroom family of products, the MimioProjector interactive projector, a device that meets the interactive visualization needs of all classrooms. The MimioProjector is an affordable, easy-to-use solution that includes built-in tracking technology, a stereo amplifier, speakers and MimioStudio software.

Teachers can quickly and easily create multimedia lessons and then display the lessons, graphics and images on a dry erase board or any other flat surface. Images projected by MimioStudio software can be manipulated by students using an interactive pen or pencil. A dual pen option allows two students to interact with the same image at the same time, increasing teachers' ability to incorporate collaborative learning and small group teaching into their classrooms.

Schools with budget constraints can start with the basic version of MimioProjector, which does not include interactive features, and then add interactive functions through improvements in the classroom itself.

Compatible con 3D

MimioProjector supports all common video formats, including VGA, HDMI, S-video and composite video and offers a native resolution of 1280×800 (WXGA). Delivers 3D graphics capabilities with support for DLP Link 3D and HDMI 1.4a 3D technologies. High image resolution produces life-like images and color for enhanced table viewing, graphics, illustrations and simulations. The audio playback system delivers stereo sound through two high-performance speakers. 8 watts that increases users' listening experience.

The MimioProjector interactive projector integrates seamlessly with other MimioClassroom products – including MimioVote evaluation, the MimioView document camera, and the MimioPad wireless pen tablet- through the intuitive MimioStudio software, eliminating the need for additional software training when educators expand their interactive classroom technology. The projector also integrates with Mimio content such as reading programs and other content collaborations.

Manny Perez, CEO of Mimio, has manifested: “This is the third interactive classroom delivery system we have developed in our mission to offer educators an increasingly broad and technologically sophisticated line of products., while continuing to offer our flexible, easy-to-use software and content. The MimioProjector offers the best interactive projection technology and with its integration with the rest of our MimioClassroom devices and the inclusion of MimioStudio, is the best interactive projector solution for classrooms”.
