The driving force behind modern education techniques, regardless
of discipline or content, is technology – and specifically,
Audiovisual Technology. Technology, applied effectively as an educational
tool, must support two primary objectives: Universal Access to
Content and the Flexible, Resolute and Effective Presentation of
this Content.
Syska Hennessy Technology has exhibited the ability to successfully
design and implement State-of-the-Art technology as a useful tool
to facilitate and extend the capabilities of education. These technology
systems have met the driving educational objectives of teaching
professionals as well as the requirements of the technology and
facilities personnel who are tasked with operating and maintaining
these systems in a cost-effective manner.
These systems include centralized and distributed controls capable
of accepting a broad range of content, including; computer-based,
server-based and Web-based sources. The systems also accommodate
both local and remote broadcast sources such as cable TV, campus-wide
educational broadcasts and satellite feeds.
The distribution of content is also managed both centrally and/or
in the individual classroom, lecture hall of lab venue. Variable
management allows the control of educational material to lie in
the hands of the educator or presenter – selecting to either
direct their own presentation or hand it over to a dedicated technician
for centralized control. Additionally, these systems are composed
of high-resolution document cameras, dual side-by-side data/video
projectors, distributed audio and distributed teleconferencing
to facilitate distance-learning initiatives.
Finally, Syska designs leading edge, high bandwidth infrastructures
to support these advanced audio visual technologies, including;
high-speed LAN’s, multimedia Wide Area architectures and
copper and fiber optic cabling systems.
Syska also has full-service design capabilities in PBX and related
voice systems as well as security, surveillance and building access
control systems.
