Sound Video Systems manufactures portable projection systems designed specifically for the classroom, and sells them through its network of dealers and distributors. These systems, recently branded the AVRover, address the specific concerns of the educational user - security, reliability, ease of use, flexibility, durability and cost.
This unique product line was introduced in 2004 by its first dealer in New York State. The acceptance by end users, mostly educational institutions was immediate. After purchasing one or two units, most schools began ordering more units as their budgets allowed. It became apparent that this portable projection system filled a large void in classroom presentation solutions.
The personal computer is now being used in all levels of education for use with interactive whiteboards, websites, PowerPoint presentations and streaming video files. Being able to show big screen videos from a DVD or VCR enhances the learning experience. Projecting the image and sound to the students requires a data/video projector and a sound system that is connected to the computer and other source components.
Until recently, there were two methods used to bring this technology to the classroom:
One method was to mount the projector to the ceiling, install the speakers either in the ceiling or on the walls, and mount the components in a rack or on a shelf, and then connect everything with cables that had to run through or along the walls and ceiling, which tended to be very expensive and frequently encountered installation issues. A control system or remote was needed for the projector since it was out of reach.
The other method was to stack the projector, amplifier, speakers and other components on the shelves of an open AV cart. This tended to be less costly, but also less secure and less reliable.
