RNI Lectern II Professional PDF Print Email

Overview

The goal of Lectern is to minimize the equipment and operational cost associated with course lecture recording and post-processing by avoiding the use of video capturing. Lectern II employs the touch-sensitive screen technology to build a "digital desk," which is able to effectively capture voice, slides, and pen annotation data and additionally supports the actual presentation process.

  • Slides can be prepared using Windows applications that support printing
  • During recording slides can be switched, remarks can be drawn and all voice and pen movements are captured
  • If required the integrated editor allows you to cut and combine lectures after recording
