Any collaboration technology today should be able to create a meeting room from any modern workspace with easy to use, schedule and remote management capabilities. Hence, it won’t matter if you are designing a small huddle space or a larger conference room, it’s critical to simplify and enhance meetings by providing the right collaboration technology.

1. Scalable Solutions – collaboration technology must be customizable to meet the needs of different meeting room spaces from huddles to larger, more complex conference rooms.

2. Intuitive solution – Users can enter and easily use the space without getting training on the system.

3. Flexibility – Users share and mirror content from their phones, tablets or laptops via a wired or wireless connection.

4. Security – To support scalable solutions to rooms within the enterprise, the system must be connected in a secure network for monitoring, remote support, and firmware updates.

LED Screens are flat panel displays used for video display, informational or decorative purposes. They are robust, come in an array of sizes and relatively affordable. Due to their higher resolution than projectors they are often an alternative to traditional projector screens.

 

Smart boards/ interactive whiteboard (IWB) – a large interactive display board that is in the form factor of a whiteboard. In the past, whiteboards were manufactured and designed for office use in small meetings rooms and brainstorming round tables.

In essence, a smart board will only function when connected to a computer, an LCD display, and a projector. Therefore, displaying content from a computer screen. Once connected, the IWB transforms into a large, touch sensitive version of the computer screen. Teachers and students can control the screen with a special pen or hand instead of a mouse. So in the case of a classroom, students and teachers interact with images, write notes, draw graphs, save, download and share info from the smart board.

Talinda is the top installer and supplier of Interactive Smart boards in Kenya. Also referred to as digital whiteboards or interactive boards, Smart boards promote collaboration among creators, doctors, students and colleagues for group discussion and team participation. Like flip boards, they are effective brainstorming tools. With this, participants can take notes, save, share them on-the-go and distribute them later.

Video walls is a special setup of multiple monitors of computer monitors, or video projectors tiled together to make one large screen. A video wall can be as simple as one image from a single source stretched across multiple screens. The video wall is useful in displaying several images from different They offer greater control, scalability, and creativity in meeting rooms.

Wireless presentation systems This is a device that lets you mirror content from a laptop or mobile device to a shared flat panel, screen or projector without the need to plug in cable making it an easy to use and time saving presentation tool. We supply Kramer Via and Barco ClickShare.

Speakers Our range of surface mount, ceiling mount and pendant speakers are designed to meet your specific needs. Your selection of speakers will depend factors such as aesthetics, size of meeting space, whether the meeting room ceiling is “sealed”, budgets and people in the meeting. 

Amplifiers & Subwoofers

Microphones Obviously, a huddle room doesn’t often need a costly wireless/wired system with individual mics for each participant since every voice can be heard with ease in small spaces. Nevertheless, mid-size to large meeting rooms cannot flourish with a single microphone in the middle of the table. Some speakers won’t be heard and even moving spots to speak can disrupt the meeting.

Microphone Options when deciding on the mics of choice factors that go into play include room layout, audio requirements of team, noise levels needed, wireless microphones, compatibility with BYOD infrastructure like laptops, installation method sought out, room architecture and design.

Ceiling Mics are ideal for decluttering meeting room with wires and lining your tabletop, while ensuring a 360-degree audio pickup. The mics are best suited for medium to large conference rooms. You are free to install more than one mic in the room to pick every single speaker. Pretty straight forward, ceiling microphones are mounted and embedded into your ceiling with an industrial finish or hang like a chandelier to blend with your décor. With high ceiling conference rooms, hanging microphone are often necessary to guarantee capture of every voice in the room.

Gooseneck Mics Like the name suggests gooseneck microphones have an uncanny resemblance to a goose’s neck. However, they are the best choice for guaranteeing perfect audio quality. Each seat is paired with a dedicated microphone. The advantage is they do not pick up background noise. On the flipside, they clutter your table with equipment.

Boundary/ button Mics The setup is fairly simple, these small square microphone is placed on a “boundary,” essentially a mounting surface. Typically, this mic is mounted and embedded within/on/under the table. They pickup voices of all speakers in front of them. They are common in most meeting rooms as they are relatively cheap, neat and great at picking up voices albeit at higher frequencies.
