Monitors
We can provide your presenters with confidence monitors to follow up their notes or cue their presentations. We also have a wide array of LED television monitors sized from 17″ to 70″. These monitors are great for use in exhibition halls, green rooms, hallways and more. If you need a freestanding monitor near the entrance to your event to display a schedule, we have sturdy floor mounts for raising monitors to eye level.
Cameras
AV101 uses top-of-the-line Sony DSR-500′s to record your events. We have extremely powerful zoom lenses that allow us to place the camera literally at the back of the room and still get detailed closeups of the presenters on stage. These cameras can output a signal that is suitable for televised broadcast and online webcasting. Should you desire a video archive of your event, we can record the entire event directly to a portable hard drive for your future use.
IMAG
One very specialized cable can deliver high-definition images from our video cameras directly to the screens on stage. This helps keep your audience alert longer and minimizes eye strain from audience members near the back of the house. IMAG is the perfect solution for large events where attendees may not be able to sit close enough to the presenter to actually see what they are doing.
