Teams Rooms Webinar Series No.5 – Using the DISCAS standard to specify image size for hybrid meeting displays

This DISCAS Masterclass is the fifth in our Teams Room Webinar Series taking in-depth looks at specific aspects of Teams/Zoom/Google Rooms - and any hybrid/blended workspaces.

Attendees will receive 1 AVIXA CTS Renewal Unit.


DISCAS is the global standard produced by AVIXA on Display Image Size for 2D Content in Audiovisual Systems.  Greg led the task group that wrote this standard and currently leads AVIXA’s standards group.

Greg has referred to this standard frequently throughout his Teams Webinar Series. Understanding how to use this standard is essential to create effective hybrid meeting and teaching rooms and avoid the 2021 failures of installing displays too small - and creating ‘cheap seats’ at the back of the room.

In this webinar you will learn (or refresh your knowledge on) how to use DISCAS to: plan and design new displayed image systems; review and modify existing spaces; determine image size relative to the space and viewing requirements; determine closest and farthest viewer positions; determine horizontal angles of view and provide metrics for content design.  

By attending this DISCAS Masterclass webinar you can expect to:

  • Receive training and handover of essential calculators for determining proper display image size, quality and specifications for systems with special reference to Teams/Zoom/hybrid spaces.

  • Learn how to use DISCAS to design a new space or to assess/modify an existing hybrid, meeting and teaching workspaces

  • Receive comprehensive materials and links to consolidate the lesson and to use in your daily working life.

This webinar takes place at 16:00 GMT on Tuesday 15th March. Even if you can’t make this time, please register anyway and you’ll receive a recording and the slide deck to review at your leisure.


Greg’s daily posts on LinkedIn have drawn thousands of views and hundreds of comments. These webinars will look at the key issues raised.
