Explore Virginia Tech's Strategies for Improving Student Education
Virginia Tech State University's Alexandria campus has undergone a significant transformation in its learning and teaching facilities, thanks to the installation of tvONE CORIOmaster video processors in four key areas: the AI & Machine Learning Lab, Boeing Auditorium, K-12 Gaming Lab, and the Lobby video wall.
In the AI & Machine Learning Lab, a tvONE CORIOmaster micro unit was installed to manage complex, multi-source video processing. This upgrade supports immersive and dynamic educational experiences aligned with cutting-edge AI and machine learning curricula. It enables seamless integration and display of diverse visual data streams, fostering a more interactive research and learning environment.
The Boeing Auditorium was equipped with a CORIOmaster mini processor, optimising large-scale presentations and events. This upgrade enhances visual fidelity and content flexibility, allowing professors and guest speakers to deliver more engaging lectures with high-quality video and multimedia content.
The K-12 Gaming Lab received installation of advanced video processing, supporting interactive and adaptive educational games. This technology allows smooth switching and layering of multiple inputs, crucial for a diverse range of gaming scenarios and collaborative activities.
The lobby area received a video wall powered by CORIOmaster technology, creating a visually striking and informative digital display. This installation serves as both a welcoming dynamic environment and an educational showcase, capturing attention and conveying important campus information or achievements effectively.
Mitch Klein, tvONE's Mid-Atlantic regional sales manager, worked closely with Diego Romero, the building's manager, to find solutions for the four spaces. Romero, who learned the basics of the tvONE CORIOmaster range of video processors on his own, with initial setup and programming done by their main programmer, was instrumental in ensuring the smooth installation and operation of the equipment.
The project is part of a wider upgrade of projector screens, LED video walls, and TVs at Virginia Tech's Academic Building One. These improvements help bridge complex visual data with user-friendly interfaces, enriching both teaching methodologies and student experiences. The installation aims to provide users with a smooth experience when sharing content on displays with non-standard aspect ratios and where multiple pieces of content can be shown at the same time.
