vSolution MATRIX: Networked AV-based technology for active learning
vSolution MATRIX is an AV over IP-based collaboration solution from WolfVision, which uses multiple Cynap / Cynap Core units to stream video and audio between multiple screens using existing network infrastructure.
Available as a feature pack upgrade for Cynap systems, it is ideal for active learning classrooms, training rooms, and courtrooms of all sizes.
A single feature pack enabled Cynap unit, designated as the ‘main’ system in the room, is connected to multiple workstations with either a Cynap or a Cynap Core system installed. Content is shared between connected monitors and the main screen in the room with all processing performed by the installed Cynap systems themselves.
Easy drag & drop control of multiple screens
A Cynap system at every workstation ensures an intuitive and easy-to-use collaborative working environment for all users, and the simple drag and drop interface enables content to be moved effortlessly between different screens in the room.
The Room View is used to control pushing and pulling of content between displays, and flexible configuration settings enable up to 40 workstations to be configured using either names, numbers or colours, to exactly match the actual layout of individual learning spaces.
vSolution MATRIX key benefits
Cost-effective installation
Using an existing IP network for transmission of AV signals means that there is no longer a need to maintain separate AV infrastructure. Cynap systems do not need additional encoding / decoding hardware which also means a reduction in hardware purchasing costs. Configuring vSolution MATRIX for Cynap also means that cabling requirements are reduced.
Enterprise level security features
Network security is an important factor when introducing a wireless collaboration solution into your organization. We provide a comprehensive, configurable set of security features, ensuring that vSolution MATRIX meets the security requirements of every organisation.
Easy administration and maintenance
Selecting Cynap and Cynap Core systems for your active learning classroom means less hardware, more straightforward installation plus reduced ongoing maintenance. You also have the flexibility to scale up or down easily in the future as required.
Simple to use / Drag & drop control
A Cynap system at every workstation ensures an intuitive and easy-to-use collaborative working environment for all users. The simple drag and drop interface enables content to be moved effortlessly between different screens in the room.
High performance system
Intelligent, optimised processing of streams, ensures high quality video and audio with low latency, and a moderate bandwidth requirement. Cynap systems configured with the vSolution MATRIX feature pack provide all the performance and reliability associated with traditional AV distribution methods.
