Ivanhoe Grammar is a co-educational school with a rich history filled with excellent educational outcomes.
Through innovative educational teaching and learning models, Ivanhoe Grammar aims to foster a vibrant and diverse environment where students can engage in a challenging, comprehensive curriculum and a wide range of co-curricular choices.
DIB Audio Visual is proud to say that Ivanhoe Grammar is one of our long standing clients. We’ve been working together for close to two decades.
The Challenge
With their current AV installations nearly seven years old and nearing end of life, Ivanhoe Grammar reached out to DIBAV to update their equipment.
Ivanhoe has very high standards; and this update is about future proofing their systems and delivering higher quality imagery and also usability for the teaching faculty.
Whilst smart flat panels were considered for the project, Ivanhoe Grammar made the decision to use new Epson projectors for the installation.
The ability to project and use a large whiteboard without any additional equipment was a key feature behind this choice.
Our solution
In consultation with the school, DIBAV specified the new Epson EB 1485fi projector system. We partnered this with brand new large size whiteboards, giving teachers plenty of space on which to teach.
The Epson Projectors used in this project are arguably the most advanced ultra short throw interactive projector in the world. Coupled with high quality low gloss ceramic whiteboards, simple control panels and a professional installation, the whole system supports the schools’ goal of a high quality education for their students.
DIBAV also responded to Ivanhoe’s request for an update to both teaching tools, blu-ray player equipment and wireless presentation systems. To satisfy these needs we specified the new VIVI system and Commbox Joey panels.
The Space
With high ambient light in some of these classrooms, a key feature of these new Epson laser projectors is their high rating light output – 5000 ansi lumens. It leads to much better image quality including higher contrast ratios. This results in a better viewing environment for the students.
Simplicity in Form and Function With Joey Micro 9 control panels in each classroom, the full functionality and use of these systems is available to the teachers. These panels are beautifully designed and allow simple access to the system and connection of external hardware.
