FEED Spring 2023 Web

Learning is now intimately bound with digital technology. Panasonic’s glass-to-glass solutions are helping institutions future-proof their teaching

he concept of education is an ever-changing model. From content, to the ways in which we deliver it, we live in a continuous cycle

of relearning how to teach. It was long before the events of 2020 that education started to redefine itself once again – this time into the hybrid and digitised hub of knowledge that we see today. The transformation was made unavoidable by a move to remote education during the pandemic, where students and educators had no choice but to teach and consume materials from home. Panasonic Broadcast & ProAV had already been implementing AV workflows and solutions to academic institutions for more than a decade. “For some years, we’ve been delivering to a growing global demand to find the perfect solution for lecture capture and online or hybrid learning,” says business development manager for higher education at Panasonic Connect Europe, Hilmar Salac. “Our glass-to-glass approach, from the live recording, video management system (Panopto), the production process, to the projector displaying the image, covers the full workflow. This approach makes our solution popular with small- to large-scale educational environments.” FINDING A SOLUTION Panasonic’s glass-to-glass solution covers everything from the PTZ

cameras capturing lectures and seminars to displays and projectors. That includes the integrated software that works behind the hardware. “We work with various different companies that all contribute to our overall solution – such as Panopto,” explains Salac. “From video placement storage to automated movement and audio tracking, Panasonic makes sure the process is as seamless and automated as possible, meaning there’s no need for an operator in the lecture hall.” Panopto is a tool which allows anyone to record lectures – and other video content – and simultaneously upload them to databases such as Blackboard; letting students view them asynchronously.
