Epson Interactive Projector (Brightlink 1485fi)

Some of our short throw Epson projectors are touch capable. A short-throw projectors is one that is installed directly above the whiteboard. The short throw projectors that have a white casing are the interactive models that allow for touch interaction with the Built-in PC.

  • The interactive projectors allow have pens, but also allow for using a finger.
  • The projector's whiteboard feature can be used without a computer
  • There are two pens with each projector. Each pen can be assigned a different color. Pressing the side button when using the pen at the whiteboard will bring up a menu for selecting a new color or pen style.
  • There are two modes:
    • Annotation: Use the pens of fingers to draw on top of the image.
    • PC Control: Turns the projector into a touchscreen for the Built-In PC in the podium. Just touch instead of using the mouse.

QSC Control System

Q-SYS is a programmable AV Control platform. The CATS team has two Q-SYS certified AV engineers on staff, allowing us to troubleshoot, redesign, and adapt the room's control panel.

Starting with Schlessman in 2023, Q-SYS has become the new standard system for controlling the equipment in the teaching space.
