penveu® Announces New HDMI® Models


penveu®, an Interphase (News - Alert) Corporation (NASDAQ: INPH) business, today announced an addition to the award-winning penveu® interactive display system portfolio for the education technology and training markets. The new models include HDMI® input and output in addition to VGA, making it easy to connect to a wide variety of audiovisual equipment and complex audiovisual environments. The new penveu models also include significant improvements to penveu system performance and an even more intuitive user interface.

"The new HDMI model of penveu is important to our customers because as schools, training facilities and meeting venues continue to update their audiovisual equipment, such as projectors and flat panel displays, their connectivity standard is transitioning from VGA to HDMI," said Yoram Solomon, Ph.D., vice president of corporate strategy and general manager of penveu.

The penveu interactive display system has successfully completed testing at the HDMI Authorized Test Center in accordance with the HDMI Compliance Test Specification, a critical step to achieve product release of HDMI-capable models of penveu to market. With full video and audio HDMI compliance, users of the new penveu system can carry their penveu system wherever they go, knowing they will be able to hook into the latest presentation environments.

penveu, designed and manufactured in the USA, adds interactivity to projectors and flat panel displays while overcoming issues encountered with other interactive EdTech tools. With penveu you can:

  • Use it from anywhere in the room
  • Use it with existing content, regardless of operating system
  • Use it with an existing projector or display
  • Interact on flat surfaces including fabric screens, walls, HDTVs, whiteboards, monitors, etc.
  • Save screen captures including notes
  • Use the pen and mouse features accurately with no calibration required

"The beauty of using penveu is that even if you are an interactive white board user, penveu allows you to back away from the board. This results in user-friendly interactivity and better learning in the classroom, and a collaborative atmosphere in the conference room," said Solomon.

The penveu system recently won an EdTech Digest 2015 Cool Tool Award in the classroom hardware category. The product has earned an Award of Excellence by Tech & Learning Magazine, won a Best of Show award at ISTE 2014, was named a 2014 Honoree of the Consumer Electronics Show Innovations in Design and Engineering Award, and was chosen as a 2012 Best of InfoComm Awards recipient. penveu continues to increase its reach in the education technology market.

The new penveu HDMI systems will become available during April. Pricin and availability details will be released soon.
