KRAMER ADDS IOS MIRRORING TO VIA COLLAGE

9 March 2015

Kramer has introduced a firmware update for its VIA Collage that enables iOS mirroring, allowing users to show content from any iOS device with an integrated Airplay receiver, and adds some multi-lingual support.

“Everything you do on your Apple iOS device is wirelessly mirrored on the main display,” says Kramer’s vice president of digital business development, Neta Lempert. “It’s that simple. No complicated set up, no need for additional adaptors.

VIA Collage wireless presentation and collaboration solution allows meeting participants to collaborate on and finalise projects in real time. Up to six user screens can be shown on a single main display and up to 12 on two displays. Users can also view the main display on their device.

With any laptop, tablet or smartphone, users can view, edit and comment on documents simultaneously, share files instantly and chat with other meeting participants. VIA Collage uses proprietary technology to stream full-resolution uninterrupted HD video to the main display. It also supports third-party conferencing and office apps such as Microsoft Office, Skype, GotoMeeting, Lync and WebEx, allowing users to connect remotely to meetings.

Language support has been added for German and Russian with firmware v1.6, and future firmware upgrades will include more languages.
