Key Criteria for Screens and Displays for Higher Education
There is a vast range of available technology, how do you choose the right display that will deliver an exceptional viewing experience and ensure you get the most out of your budget?
As a minimum, consider:
-
Size: Use AVIXA’s DISCAS image size standard to specify the right size of screen to ensure optimum viewing from everywhere in the room (no ‘cheap seats’).
- Performance: Use AVIXA’s ISCR image quality standard which sets out the minimum requirement as 15:1 image contrast ratio for the Basic Decision Making category that applies in this case - ensure the display you choose can achieve this requirement in the specific location and lighting conditions of the room.
-
Student welfare: Screens and displays that are too bright can cause eye-strain and headaches, ensure the display you choose is suitable for comfortable, extended viewing.
-
Cost: It is an all-too common mistake to assume the best solution is the most expensive solution. Use your budget wisely by choosing the technology that meets your specific performance requirements, taking into account factors including purchase price, installation and maintenance costs and running costs.
-
Environmental Considerations: Most Higher Education institutions now have Environmental Charters or Targets, meaning low power consumption and recyclability is a key factor for consideration.
