IV. Benefits of Choosing Unilumin's Conference Room Display Solutions
A TV is important in a conference room because it provides a large, high-quality visual display for presentations, video conferences and sharing information, enabling everyone in the room to clearly take in content regardless of seating position. This, in turn, enhances collaboration and the effectiveness of the meeting, making it particularly beneficial for visual learners.
What's more, TV can be easily used by anyone in the company due to its simple operation and versatile connectivity options.
In short, the key benefits of a TV in a conference room encompass:
• Clear visuals
• Ease-of-use
• Flexibility
• Brightness in well-lit rooms
• Video conferencing capabilities
• Interactive features
When choosing a conference room TV, key factors to consider include screen size based on room dimensions, resolution, viewing angle, brightness, contrast, mounting height, compatibility with video conferencing apps, audio quality and the number of attendees in the room (to ensure everyone can see the display clearly and comfortably).
Let's take a brief look at some of these now.
The size of the conference room and seating distance from the screen directly impacts the ideal TV size to maintain proper viewing angles for all participants.
Higher resolutions yield sharper visuals, especially when it comes to detailed presentations.
Different panel technology types, such as LED, OLED or IPS, can impact picture quality, viewing angles and color accuracy.
This is vital to consider for visibility in well-lit conference rooms.
The mounting height of a display should be considered to ensure the screen remains at eye level for optimal viewing.
Compatibility with various input sources such as video conferencing systems, disc players, laptops and streaming devices should be considered when looking at connection ports in the back of a TV, like HDMI.
Integrated speakers should be sufficient for the room size, and if not, external speakers should be considered for better sound.
Some TVs offer touch screen functionality for collaboration and annotation.
Look for TVs with good energy ratings.
Much of what we're going to cover in this section has been touched on in part one, but here we'll try to narrow things down for you so you can make a better decision when choosing a conference room TV.
To begin with, it's important to choose a screen size that is appropriate for the size of your conference room; a general guideline is to consider one inch of screen size for every one to two feet of distance from the screen to the furthest viewer. When it comes to viewing distance, consider the distance participants will be sitting from the screen; larger rooms may require larger screens (65-inches or more) to ensure visibility.
In the area of display resolution, there's one factor we like to stress continuously to our customers: choose a 4K display for the sharpest images and clearest text, especially for larger screens or if you'll be sharing detailed content (like designs or spreadsheets). What is known as "Full HD" (1080p resolution) is sufficient for smaller screens or if the content is less-detailed. Similarly, you should look for a TV boasting high brightness – measured in "nits" – particularly for rooms bathed in excessive ambient light.
This is a good time to go into panel technology, which basically comes down to three options today: LED/LCD, OLED and QLED. LED/LCD is good for bright rooms and offers excellent color reproduction, OLED provides better contrast and deeper blacks but may be more expensive; and QLED offers high brightness and vibrant colors, making these types of TVs ideal for brightly-lit environments.
When it comes to connectivity options, there are three major types to keep an eye on: HDMI, which can connect laptops, disc players, video conferencing systems and other devices; look for at least three to four HDMI inputs. Additionally, you should look for USB and other ports for screen sharing and other devices, as well as compatibility with HDMI ARC for sound systems. Finally, built-in Wi-Fi or Bluetooth capability allows for wireless screen sharing and easier device connectivity.
Beyond these aforementioned factors, you should look for smart whiteboard features, soundbar integration options and adjustable mounts.
What's the best way to choose the right display for your conference room? The first thing that must be determined is the exact kind of room you're installing the TV in – is it a small huddle room? A medium-sized conference room? A large lecture hall? For small "huddle rooms," interactive flat-panel displays (IFPDs) are ideal for collaboration, while larger conference rooms might benefit from large LED displays or multiple smaller displays for wider viewing angles.
It's always important to prioritize screen size based on room dimensions and viewing distance to ensure everyone can see content clearly; you should also look for features such as anti-glare coatings for well-illuminated rooms.
IFPDs allow for collaborative brainstorming and annotation directly on the screen, which is perfect for small groups, while smaller LCD/LED displays can also be easily viewed by a small group.
Large LCD/LED displays should be chosen with high resolution and good viewing angles to accommodate a larger audience; consider using two smaller displays to show different content simultaneously, like video conferencing participants and presentations.
High-brightness LED displays are good for well-lit rooms, so look for LED displays with high brightness to ensure clear visuals; you can also consider utilizing a wall of smaller displays to provide wide viewing angles and accommodate large audiences. For super-large spaces, a high-quality projector with a massive screen can be a cost-effective option.
